Love this movie. The narration about “scrambling” and music makes it a classic.

Well we know there’s at least 3 people in here that aren’t really into moto or dirt bikes     period.  Wonder if that would happen if down votes weren’t anonymous. Where ya at down voters ? Why shoot this post down ?

Downvotes mean nothing.     Sure, if someone says something totally shitty, I guess it makes sense.    Otherwise they generally mean you've hurt someones feelings at some point and you're in their head.   A lot of petty, small people in the world. 

So, downvotes are really just a badge of honor to me. Grinning

I do agree with the poster who said they shouldn't be anonymous.   That would end a lot of the stupid downvotes.

Wow you can’t post today the screen is jumping. Anyway what yr ? I think a 125 with the lighter weight is the way to go. You can get away with bad suspension. 89 cr125 with a Messico pipe is the Hot ticket. 90,s cr125 r very good too. Vital did a test on a 97 cr125 144 Tmr that thing sounded Great & it still rev d.

Hard to believe but I used to ride wth Nick Nickleson up in lake isabella.  He was a Greeves  dude all the way and could still ride well for an old dude.

Yes Sir, at one point in time I had a pair of them. The one closer to the fence was my back up and was sold a couple years ago. The one closer to the camera view got upgraded with some bitchin' RaceTech shocks sometime just after that photo, was raced a few times more and has been sitting for a couple years now. Why you may ask, well my KX500 is too blame, I became obsessed with that thing and my poor ol' CZ got left by the wayside!
