Could a guy like that keep up with the best of the best back when 500’s we’re still racing?

Imagine if that guy could go back in time with his style and race. It would blow people’s minds.

Don't disrespect the guys that rode them years ago. Could this guy keep with Johnson, Ward, Bailey, Thrope, Gebeors? I very much doubt it.



You don't want none, son

I put the video on full blast. My hand vibrated off my mouse.

No, it will be about what is was like to race in GPs back in the day - what it was like to be the other side of the fence, racing those legends and historic tracks.

Sounds like my kind of book, when do you think It'll be in the shops?
I would think some time next year. It’ll be unique and it’ll be good.

You want to see 500s in real usage, go to Duke Video and get the boxed set of 500GP seasons from 86 to 90.

Not all GPs are covered, and I think the USGPs are not in (most of) them - I assume because of US TV coverage / deals, much like how Daytona SX used to be not included in broadcasts / DVDs?

Youngsters will go from "shit they're Slow", to " Oh f**k , that's insanely fast". Some magnificent tracks, some nasty. But, Men, racing Big Bikes, doing two 40 + 2 Moto's. Billy Liles is shown a fair bit, for you Americans that need to 'root' for a compatriot.

Another great DVD to get is the 97 World 500 Champs, with racing as it should become / return to :
Four Strokes and Two Strokes going head to head, with 360/ 380 KTMs ( a mixture of Linkage and first PDS), 500 2ts, and Big Boomer 630 / 650 4ts. Trampas Parker has a wry comment or two, and is shown racing a fair bit.

If your all 'modern' like, you can also purchase many items as Downloads, at Duke.
I've got the '86 and '87 500GP recaps on VHS, with french commentary though. I put them on DVD but my driver is buggered and I can't upload them.Sad

Dude can scoot on the big bore with style and ease for sure. We had Cross Up's in the 70's and 80's...yay. Blush
Anybody remember what they called cross-ups before they were called cross-ups? If you do, then your "the man"

He wouldn't last 10 minutes racing a 500 with that much intensity. That's why there are so many clips stitched together. Still, he's fair ripping that big girl around
