Pulled this one from my youth being at Pro Circuit a lot ... this time period is when Pro Circuit was making that transition from Anaheim Husky to PC and Payton moved the shop from the Lincoln Ave to the LaPalma building. He also started carrying Bridgestone M22/23 tires at that time period also:

That No Fear McGrath pic is the essence of cool to me.


It's probably because this is around the time I got into moto, but I thought everything from around that time in moto was the coolest shit ever.

Jeff Emig was wearing one like a boss at the premiere for Terrafirma 3 in Hollywood; that's the one and only time I ever saw one.

Lot's of memories in there, those Hallman Des Nations were my first pair of boots Blue & Orangish Red. One of the first with a lot of plastic on them, but they wore great.

I'll give anyone on this board 100.00 cash or PayPal if they can prove ( and admit) they purchased and actually wore a Shift Leisure Suit out in a public place.

The photos alone would be worth the cash.

I had a pair of those Bad Brad AXO boots, they were awesome, my favorite boot until the the Fox Instinct. Which is the first boot I might possibly think is any more comfortable than the AXO was.

Good stuff, thanks as always for your posts.

Today's riders have no idea how good they have it by not having to do some of those crazy ads.

The picture of the King at Daytona was sweet.
