I had one my uncle gave me that he got from his neighbor . i restored it myself and my dad thought it had too much power so he sold it for 1500 and he only gave me 100 bucks
@MrAndy221232 I sure am sorry to hear that. Some people just have bad ethics and poor parenting habits. It may be a good plan to start with a 125, as lots of us did, moving up to a 250 and then open sizes once more skill was attained, but he ought to honor his word and not rip his son off.
Nonsense, all mxers in "them days" got a lot more air than that, including me. But we rode on true MX circuits designed on natural terrain. Most often, we were jumping up to a higher level of ground, or down to a lower one. It wasn't at all uncommon to drop 20 feet of a ledge. I have a photo of my own self, doing close to that at Hangtown in 1971. Maybe I'll scan it and put it up. If it hadn't been for us, you wouldn't have those pogo sticks today.
@bigrigJim Just watched On Any Sunday again. There is a shot of a CZ jumping about 30' high and 50' long. We flew in those days, don't doubt it. It took a lot more risk to do it and skill to execute, let alone strength. No foam bar rolls, no pogo stick shocks, no face protection, no body armor.
Actually, the owner before me did, although I am planning to update it soon. It has the allowed 7" travel modification in front and the proper Works Performance shocks in the rear, new airbox, and element, plastic coffin tank, CR CZ bend bars, standard improved 1/4 turn throttle, Michelin MX tyres and most important - the wet clutch conversion. The CZs came with dry clutches. The wet clutch conversion allows second gear starts, which if done right, will put you in the lead or darn near.
Sorry, I don't understand your question. But if you are asking location, that's a secret. I will only narrow it down to the Pacific Northwest for you.

rugged look's, good engineering,
