Kids and myself always were and will continue to be fans of Dungey. A genuine and humble human being that had a little skill on two wheels also. 

My childrens mother took my kids to St Paul to watch the Minnesota Wild.  As they were waiting in line to get some snacks, this guy next to them looked like that number 5 guy they watch on tv.  Well, it was Mr Dungey himself. Was more than happy to make small talk and have his photo taken with them. 

That winter I restored an rm 65 and a kx 65 with my son and daughter.   My son wanted his like Dungeys bike and my daughter had hers decked out like Villopotos bike.  

My childhood friend and myself hopped on these 65’s when the snow melted  that spring. Not a good idea. 😬🤣

I sold them 65’s like an idiot   Now that my son hit 20 years old, he wants to find and rm 65 so he can have his first bike back.

If anyone ever runs across a 2003ish rm 65, let us know

Dungey is a good human. Did you take that photo with an old instamatic camera ? Or is that one of those droids ? 😆

You could buy any KX65 from I think 2001-current year and put some yellow plastics on it. They were the same bike, just different plastic colors. I know UFO still sells the Suzuki yellow plastic kits.

I did know that but thanks for replying. 👍

Always hard to find. 

Oh, I dont know type of phone my childrens mother used for that photo. Not sure if they had cameras on cell phones back in that era. 
 We weren't together at this point in life.  At least she got to know moto and hockey via me and shared interest in those sports on her weekends with my little ones.

Wish he was still racing. But happy for him on the life he has built.
