About Me
I raced back in the 70's and early 80's, back in the day as I tell my son. Now I just work on his bikes and travel through out the Midwest having a blast in MX.

I also take a lot of "amateur" photos, but every once in a while I'll get lucky and grab a couple of decent shots.

I live in Southern Indiana, near Evansville. We race at Lincoln Trail, Echo Valley, Backwoods MX, Crossroads and try to make it to Red Bud 2 or 3 times a year.

I heard KTM offered him a lot more money, he rode the 350 and said there was no way the bike can compete against the 450's in America, maybe the Euro/GP stuff with factory parts, yes, but not on the American circuit and he'll be riding red soon.

We had an '07 RMZ250 with well over 120 hrs and never once adjusted the valves. Always checked them and they were always within spec. Did top ends every 30 hrs, but valves were good.
