I know, I know... I'm getting boring with all this stuff.
But I was thinking of the sexiest and nastier and hotter MX bike I ever dared to dream about. Well, the original factory Yamaha '86 YZM500, the one with the alu frame was a shocker to me. Jacky Vimond was my idol just because he was racing it. So, when two years later the all-new stock YZ250 showed up (1988), with the same look and colors... well, I could not stop thinking of it, watching Dymond whipping in the US and Van Den Berk hammering the Euro tracks. The only bike that caused me the same mouth watering has been the YZ400F, some 10 years later!

Agreed, those bikes were works of art...in the new TransWorldMX they have Bailey discussing the works bikes of '83 through '85 with pictures...
Pretty hard to beat a 74' Maico MC400
Not mine, but a pretty sexy ride.
