Raced at a local track a couple of weeks ago on my 125. Thought some might enjoy it. There is video from all 4 motos of the day.

Burleson, sweet. Raced vintage bikes there in the 90's. Fun track.

AWESOME! I was on the edge of my chair. NICE set up at 5:12. You went outside and got merged into the lap before then he clobbered his way to the outside again and WHAM!.

It is cool to see where the extra nudge on power on the 250's helps and where the weight hurts on this video. The tight sections and turns were all 125 and the drag racing from turn to turn was in favor of the cheater bikes.

It sounds like a 125 the way it revs and how that start turned out. Is that stock, 132,144?

What class was that? You guys were rolling.

that track looks fun, only a few jumps though. sometimes i think i should've moved up to DFW because of the shear amount of tracks there

Good old Burleson. The only thing that's changed since 1980 is the backwards falling gate.

I haven't been there since the 90's, but judging from the video nothing has changed. Great dirt and a fun, flowy layout.

I've seen trails wider than that track, talk about tight. Your a man amoung boys, clearly if you had the same type of power you would have handled them. Good job and thanks for sharing.

Love Burleson for fun races because of it's lack of track width. Just show any pro this footage if they want to complain about Muddy Creek being narrow.

Haha yeah for sure. The back sweeper was really about the only place to make a pass, especially while out powered. That is my bone stock cr 125. I changed the gearing to have more top end, but that's it. I bought the 125 about a year and a half ago and it is waaaay more fun than my 450 to ride. Burleson is a great track and is so much fun. Oh and the class was the big bike open combined with the 125 and 250 pro. Shows how old school Burleson is because they still haven't updated/changed sign in sheets to reflect 4 strokes haha.

That was awesome. Love it. I bet your bike was panting after that ride. It seems to have two throttle positioins: on and off. mostly on. I was wishing you had anothert lap, after you got by second you caught the leader like he was stuck in second gear. nice

We're all going out there this sunday. They race every 2nd and 4th sunday of the month, 10 dollar gate fee 10 dollars per class. Can't beat it. Look for a bunch of KTM's with SMS Racing stickers to find us. Come say hey!

Nice job, edge of the seat, get those damn 4T's...........It does show the differences in the bikes, but I think you were a better rider then those other two.

I hope to soon enough man, working on motor rebuild and shock rebuild for the summer. Hopefully its ready to go for the fall. I'm from the Northeast, I can't ride in the damn heat! I'll be by the pool until September.
