Nice! A dozen of us would ride MBX in the creek next to our elementary school. High school kids on motocross bikes would occasionally braaap past us on there way to Fox Hills. They were like gods to us.

Motorsports cultures are very different between America and Europe. IMHO, Europe takes racing far more seriously.

Fun Fact 2 - The Kramer came first.

The current absence of American riders in MotoGP is a bit irritating.

Maybe this will help.

Still around. We removed the ear padding. But only used for very short rides in town on surface streets. Fit great in a small locker.

Is it just me, or is the stock R18 like Catnip for Avant-garde builders?

Due to stubbornness issues, I have yet to “age out” into streetfighters. After streetfighters, I plan to age out into adventure bikes. After that I will age out into something like this.

It’s good to have plans. AND I am OK with decades of overlap.

KTM has a great program. Trackhouse would have jumped at this a few years ago.

Brochure for my first motorcycle. A 1981 YZ125H. Got a job at 13 bussing tables and saved up the $1100 I needed. Yes, raced a YZ when they were yellow.

My 05 GSXR1000 has no visible stickers from all the mods done to it… unless you see the underside of the gas tank during servicing.

Awesome! In 83 I was a Denver high school kid with plans to move from 125 MX to the Open class. Getting my copy of Dirt Bike and MXA was a high point each month. To see what was going on in SoCal was like a dream come true to me. Moved there as soon as I could with both my kids born near SaddleBack.

Ricky Johnson (MX God), I hold you personally responsible for my #80s (and 90s) hairstyle.

Fun Fact - Jim Jannard founded #Oakley in 1975 by making and selling quality MX grips out of the back of his van at SoCal motocross races.

Fun Fact 2 - Jim named the company after his dog, Oakley Anne

Another “Still have the helmet”.

Let me direct your attention away from my pants and shoes.

Otherwise, in my defense, it was me in 1989. I was either on my way to the gym, coming from the gym, thinking about the gym, thinking about thinking of the gym or just out for a ride. #80s #The80s
