Just an 63 year old mx kid that has been riding and going motocrossing since 1971. Had a cousin, Jim "CZ Friday" that was the envy of all from 1971 till 1976.
Have a few national Championships in AHRMA and AMA racing in the expert divisions, as well as the vet divisions.
I started racing in 1978 on a CZ 250 and never looked back. I try to put some of my rides on RU-vid to show others that old guys can still ride and race
Thanks. Met Laundry and Hege. I'll have to venture more from my own backyard. We all need to get together, but over the next 6 weeks, I'm going to be racing a lot up in PA, MD, WV and Ohio. Vintage mostly except for Budds on one of my new yamadogs.
Brian, this is a 1998 kx 125. Next Generation 125 experts. All ages, I'm just old tho! From last year. I forgot to put it up. I think one 250 beat me that day, but in a different class.
Not really. Pretty much the same. It comes worse from the factory, but an ignition head and a carb kit from Europe solved it all. I liked my old 125, but my wife who is 64 took it as her personal bike so I got a new one!! It had a pipe porting , carb and ignition so it was pretty dang good too!
I'm old as the dirt. 170 main 65 pilot 70 powerjet C4 needle. Middle clip It all came from GB. Couldn't get the neddle here in the states. Also a shorty silencer, GET ignition and a VHM head for c12 race gas.
Thanks for the Video big help showing me the track. Racing Capitol Cup this year, And i’ve never been down. By the way. I’m just about 8years your younger and still have the hunger. Lets keep our feet on their necks.. I’ll see ya out in the dirt.. 💪

@KennyHollingsworth Thank you!! I just couldn't beat him that day on his 2021 yz250. Oh well, I do it for fun at 61( in this video) and ride 1990's well preped bikes.
Nice! Track looks perfect!! Crazy to see the variety of bikes out there in the "Expert" practice!! You sure got a lot of practice passing riders! Who is #687 going by you at the 6:49?
Wendel. He won open Expert up to 99 any age. Luckily ,I didn't have him in my group of over 50 expert up to 99 or 80 to 89 open Expert. I went really to ride the over 60 class on Sunday, but had a mishap I had a small problem and fell the first lap of my first race and my wrist is sore. I drove 13 hours home. No wins this year
Wasn't right this day. Bought a new carburetor for the old bike as the 25 year old carb was just not up to the task. It bogged on low end. Got a new Billitron and all I can say is wow!!!
Still hauling the mail (like Jim Friday at Stormstown!). Just stumbled upon your channel - I subscribed. Cool to see you are still riding and having fun on dirt bikes! Hope our paths cross next time I am in Happy Valley....do some bench racing!
Thanks man!! I moved out of Happy Valley at the end of 2019. I live on a pasture behind Club MX in Chesterfield, SC. On open practice days, you can see my house ( the only one) from that track when you ride.
