I should not have watched this video. Rode motocross myself back when I was a kid. Loved it. Was always a back marker…..but I had a blast anyway.I love to ride motocross every weekend. Here's a video I made from last Saturday. The GoPro is on my helmet and this is what I see when I ride my 2021 Kawasaki KX450.
Welcome AndyI look forward to helping with the forum.![]()

They say the guitar player gets the girl…. Which did really happen in my case. Being a dirty biker didn’t hurt anything. About 1975. That would be the future Mrs. IbLive on the back of my MX bike. An early model Honda MX bike. Next photo, while not my actual bike, is what mine looked like. Befor I beat the crap out of it. And I still have both the guitar and the girl. Bikes been long gone.WELCOME TO TTR

I raced my 74 in 1975. Yamaha and Suzuki were already coming out with what was the long travel suspension of the time. Pretty much made mine obsolete and it was only a year old.The mighty Elsinore 1974 made my 1972 an instant antique View attachment 73171
They sure got dated fast in the 70’s, I remember being at the Pomona fair grounds and Dewane and Gary Jones had a demo of the new Elsinore’s and they had always been on Yamaha’s before that.I raced my 74 in 1975.
