What year is the CR125? I remember I bought a blown up '75 CR125 that I rebuilt and restored back in early '80's then sold it shortly after it was done. I should've kept it. I have an '81 Maico 490 since '82...never sold it. I raced it in the open A/B for a few years then put it away (started racing 250B) for close to 30 years before I started racing the Maico again in the MX vintage races. Perhaps we should start a new thread to cover our love for dirt bikes including racing in general (past and present).

Your '89 CR250R looks clean!

He was in his late 30s, had young kids, was out for a ride with a bunch of other friends on a weekend where I should have been there. He wasnt doing anything crazy but crazy enough that he rolled his SXS.
He died. He's dead. What a waste.

That's sad...this remind me of same thing that happened to Marty Smith and his wife a few years ago at the sand dune (Glamis?). We lost a motocross legend.
