Last time I saw Trevor Flood he was huge

Thats odd because about 2 years ago i heard he was wasting away as in not eating/really thin ???

I liked the RM suzukis he tricked up. Still got some artciles on those bikes from ADB

I wonder where those YZA's ended up....would be easy to pick with the frame mods.....and then came the "B". The book is 74 but he would have done that in 73.

Excellent, thanks for the picfest KB.

No, I meant huge when he was roadracing in the early 80s. He had stacked it on. Hope he's ok, whatever he's up to now. A genuine gun !

I liked his RM370A he got it the week of the release of the RM's on a thursday night at the melbourne Motor cycles release night in their w/shop city rd melb The night i got my RM250A ran it in at coldstream and raced it at the Vic Titles at wonthaggi Trevor ran the 370 it was so wet but they were the only RM's there.
lost mine in a mud hole in the alpowers final all that was visable was the handle bars took about six blokes to get it out had to strip it completely to get the sand and shit out of everything.Trevor Flood was the king we all used to want to be as good as him or gary those guys could ride anything.
