Went down to Vintage Motorcycle Days at Mid Ohio yesterday, here are some shots of the swap meet. Can't believe how much stuff is in there!

It pourded rain in the morning and then stopped, just enough to make a lot of it a muddy mess.
Going back later today and racing Post Vintage tomorrow, will try to put some more shots together.

My buddies Mike Hance and Kirk Spencer ran the MX events at Mid Ohio. Kirk beat Billy Liles to win the +40A class and Mike won the +40B class. They said that 60K people passed through the gates!

Lee, it's not futile....it's a pipe dream! lol.

I think, and pitracer can chime in on this, that you are expecting too much. Consider your weight and the capabilities of the bike. We went looking for more bottom end this year and found a smidge more with a trick set-up. The gearing is stock. It was kinda hard to tell this year since I've been hurt and off bikes for a while (haven't rode that RM for almost a year), and the track was crap IMHO. I got smoked by everyone.

Aren't you 6'-4" Lee? You outgrew 125's a long time ago. Especially the ones with no powervalve.

Yeah they are not exactly fast bikes. My bike is stock gearing and has Boyesen Reeds and DG pipe. It's a dog, but it does need a topend rebuild.....
We are not exactly the intended weight group either!
