So it would have been between 02-04 when the mini 4 stroke class was big. Alessi had a fully built cr80 expert with a xr100 motor built to 150, Vermeer(I think) built the motor if that’s the correct spelling, and Donnie Elmer I believe built the frame and a one off fmf custom exhaust. My friends family protested the bike...

Wow that fork has a pretty long inner tube... Could be as simple as the damping rod coming unbolted from the rebound bolt in the lug. Or the rod could've stripped/failed in some way.

Respect is one thing in this sport, be friends when you retire. I remember Ricky at js7 18th bday party say… we aren’t best buds...

Yes....I was shocked there was no "burn Hunter at the stake" thread on this. If it was Barcia, this place would be in full meltdown mode. Hunter did what he had to do. Not sure what the poster was getting at talking about people who haven't raced since the 60's....does that make them irrelevant somehow? For the record, I have raced and it was in the 80's. Back when people weren't afraid to trade some paint and get a little rough. Which is exactly why I like Barcia. Good move for Hunter yesterday. It's racing, there is money and contracts...

Most guys on here have never lined up for a race or haven’t even ridden since the 60’s

I’m of the opinion that one of the things that drew me to Motocross and the DirtBike world is diversity. It used to be colorful. In a world of vanilla restraints, not so much… I’ve met and shared good times with people of many walks of life over the years racing and riding DirtBikes.

Maybe the motor was sent off to Varner to freshen up. Should get back anytime now.

I sort of wish OEM’s sold these drz125’s xr150’s whatever out of the box with decent forks. Kind of a fun play bike for an adult. No I don’t want to crack my knee cap riding a 110

I remember the Langtown Races from MXA back in the day. I always wanted a trick fourstroke mini. Bought my nephews CR85, sold the motor N electronics. Picked up a freshly rebuilt XR100 motor. I was doing research on how to modify the frame for every thing to fit. I recall the airboot was a big head scratcher. About the time I was ready to tear into the project and order parts/start cutting frame, Honda released the CRF150. Not only took the wind out of my sails, but also the whole CR/XR cottage industry that popped up almost overnight. I...

Mike says he doesn't remember the bike, and is not interested in buying it. He says thanks for offering it.

No matter whose feelings it hurts. It appears more people are interested in this bike. And the story behind it. Than the few who have nothing to say but beat the op up just because a few details were off. Following. Hope op continues to fill us in as more details and pics surface.

The guys at Vurb moto should have some footage of the actual race then. I think that video was made by the guys at Vurb. Found this video with whitney footage from 2003 I believe. Might want to glance through it. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=590336585164579
