Fork me you need to put your glasses on old timer if you cant tell there old bikes from that any joe punter could....  look nothing like modern bikes. 

Infact i can probally tell you what they are  without much trouble and i dont know anythign other than a yamaha.

that top one is an old PE or RM pre 78 something, rossco 360 YZ, next to it a 69 ? CZ its not hard.  Side on stuff looks like your mum riding down the street and could be anyone. Side on is 90% time shit, as is square on.     All the good shots always seem to be anywhere around the 45 degrees.

People buy fotos that they can tell is themselves, this guy is selling his photos not Vmx.  Maybe you need to look through his online album to see the shot you like..... im just posting these up for my own reasons.

Just sayin'  ::)

Jeez freaky-stop showing your age. I meant from a quick glance from a newby or non-vmxer. They are great RACE SHOTS of guys that look like they know a bit about riding but to Joe average they are just that-average.
A nice side-on shot would have shown the make/model and rider off a bit better-that's all.

Any way- who you callin' old there BOY :D :D

Was that on his norton ?  we had our own issue, stuck thermostae kept over heating the intake/feul and choking it. although we ran out of feul so when barran went out , we scabbed all his juice :O)  hehehe

Riverview speedway - Nov 19th Classic titles.

We got some unfinished business.

Atherton i think is going to bring out the Turbo honda, so it will be a hang on for dear life.  My other ride the Z1 still has selector issue, wont go into second, the drum keeps shifting a poof teenth.  Got a week or so to fix that.  Failing that  i still got my 2 vavle ride, so going to be a busy night.

1980s - Z1

Yer i know he said he wanted to get a return, but i reckon hes draggin the chain.  Either too much on or what, but he should have pounced on it that week, its been what 2 months now ? people forget about it anf move on, then we get the blame and they dont come back cause they reckon no one was interested ?  i have asked for a handfull, but i found some more so ill keep pushing along.
