'83 would have been Gally swan song era, Dacka would have been a pimply faced 125 junior back then.

Dack was racing the 125 Gold Cup in '83 but yes it was the Gall & Willoughby era.

Break out the fork gators and boot savers as Yamaha Racing unveils a special one off race livery for round five of the MX Nationals at Conondale, Queensland on June 2.

To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Yamaha Motor Australia, all three factory supported race teams will throw back to 1983 and break out the white, red and black look that signified Yamaha motocross models at the time.

CDR Yamaha, Serco Yamaha and the GYTR Yamaha teams will all run the special edition look on their bikes and some special retro gear to suit, with the historical Conondale circuit providing the perfect backdrop.

“Yamaha distribution in Australia all came under the YMA umbrella from 1983 and our motocross teams will take part in the celebration with a commemorative look at round five of the MX Nationals at Conondale,” stated Yamaha’s Ray Howard.

“Since that time, Yamaha Australia has been deeply involved in the domestic motocross scene and produced plenty of champions and memories along the way.

"From motocross legends Stephen Gall and Craig Dack, who are both still heavily involved with Yamaha, to more recent champions in Jay Marmont and Josh Coppins, Yamaha Australia has a proud racing heritage.”

30 years ago, CDR Yamaha owner, Craig Dack, was an up and coming racer competing on YZ125 and YZ250 and recalls the time fondly.

“1983 was a great time in Australian racing and even as we built the bikes for this occasion it bought back some special memories." Dack reflected. "We have really captured the look of the bikes and it’s a great way to celebrate Yamaha Australia’s 30th year.

"Even the current riders got a kick out of the look of the bikes and are excited to be a part of the occasion,” Dack explained.

“It will be a special day for me to see motocross bikes in the same guise as I used to race 30 years ago circulate around Conondale with some of the great riders in the current generation like Billy and Lawson on board,” he concluded.

Stay tuned to each race teams Facebook page in the lead up to the event as they unveil special snippets of the unique retro round look.

WOW What an event, pitty about so much rain the week before, the track a wash, an absolute mess, the pro guys still made it look easy, some of the ruts where half a metre deep l shit you not and in some places the track was like you were at the Kamafari Mud Run in Darwin, 300mm deep porige for 100 metres, I've never felt so out of place on a bike, would I do it again? In a heart beat, I finished 18 out of 26 in the Vets over 40, Simon Broad had a mishap on the first lap and looks like he has a broken Scapular on the right side and maybe some damage to a lung, from memory he qualified 2 or 3rd and was in the first maybe 6-8 before the crash....

Good event all the same just another tick off the bucket list.....
