Hi all,
Raced Motorcross back in the mid 70s to late 80s.
Did a few enduros and the 24 hour Trial 4 times until an accident in my last attempt left me with a total knee reconstruction.
Competition was out the window and I drifted in to classic motorcycles following my father in to the BSA owners Club of SA (He was a founding member).
I now have an A10 650, A65 650 and a B34 500.
Also aquired a Bultaco SDT MK5 which sits in the shed complete with spare frame and engine.
Bought that when I was 17 for $500.00. I am now 49 so it has sat untouched for quite a while.
Have been watching the VMX scene for a while now and keep spotting bikes I used to race and slowly the fever has built (you know what I am talking about) until last weekend took the plunge and bought a YZ250E Yamaha.
This was the first motorcross bike i ever bought brand new with my own money back in 1978 from Southcott Yamaha (long gone but not forgotten).
So now it begins, back in the shed getting her in a fit state to get back to where she belongs. On the track.
Cheers
Trev
