Suzuki Motocross history 1968-2018

Great work as always, quite a few i owned over the years , and one we still have now.

Was intrigued to see the 1976 RM 100 had a mud flap on the front , as standard, always assumed the one on mine was an add on by the first owner , who funnily enough, tracked me down on FB recently after not seeing him for 35 years.

I have this one, 100% NOS and never ridden.



Its basically a KX100 with yellow plastic and Zook decals.

It's not basically a KX 100 with yellow plastic and Suzuki decals. That's exactly what it is.

Brother had a 2005 RMZ/KXF 250 and he would switch plastics from time to time and people were gullible enough to believe he had 2 bikes.

Lol yup, I had an 03 KX100 many years ago. Came with the silver frame instead of green because Kawasaki was just swapping plastics depending on which "brand" it was gonna be.
My brother had a RM65 at the time, made by Kawasaki.
And my dad worked at Kawasaki, with a bunch of Suzuki quads around.
Kawasaki really stepped up the 250F game when they ditched Suzuki in 2006. Sorry Tyler, the early Zook 250Fs sucked.

First new bike was a 94 RM80. Little bike ripped.

This was a revival, I do not remember what it was, I think last year I did not know which race, maybe Assen or Lommel...

Why would anyone want to dredge up memories of that graphic design ?

My first race bike- the machine of my dreams. The rear shocks were almost meaningless.

holy cow, that brings back memories. I went to that school in 1977 or 1978. I think Mark Blackwell was doing it. Class in the morning, riding in the afternoon. Lots of info on training and nutrition.

Nice video thanks! I have about 10 of those bikes in the video in my garage right now...
