1970s Beast Mode

I just noticed, as of late, your moto knowledge goes way back. I origanally had you pegged as a guy in his late 40's, early 50's. 

Bitchin pic motomike. 

The core is a 10 out of 10 on that one. Snow fence...open face helmet...Joffa,.,Carrera goggles, 2 strokes...plus a couple of 70's chicks in the background.

No complaints from me.

That’s prob like 75’ and so bad ass and I can remember looking thru snow fence like that as a ~6 kid at one of the early New Orleans Nationals in Waggaman, La. ~1974.  Great memories and the riders of that era were animals riding the wheels off something with so little suspension. Respect!

Cool Datsun pickup in the background too.

No mechanics putting a fresh clean rear wheel on!

There is tons of awesome footage of him on the Jim Sheldon YouTube channel. 

Gary Semics next to him?

Non from this old guy either!!!

Jim Weinert 1979 Daytona SX  Watch It!

cross bar pads are overrated 
or just not invented yet 

Kinda like to here more stories and details from these old racers

Nor Tear-Offs!

That photo is from 1974, the only year Mike was on Yamaha.  Hartwig is one of the guys that should have been a much bigger star but a back injury ended his career not long after he got his Yamaha ride.  

Is that a mud flap on his peak...and a rag on his accelerator throttle and shoulder pads and probably real leathers (pants).

I'm guessing Wyman Priddy

#25 on the Kawasaki is Terry Clark

Thanks!
