When I was a high school student, there were no videos yet.Therefore,I remembered the time period when this video was shown on TV and took pictures of the CRT with my camera.After graduating from university, I got a job at Honda!
Me and my best friend bought the first two CR250’s in Wichita. Man I loved that bike. Took them to the local track and everybody stared in envy. Raced two 30 minute motos placing 2nd both times, yielding a 2nd place podium on my first trip to the track. Such good memories.
I had the 125 cc version of this bike - red stripe, not green. It was the next year's version before they went to all red. Sure is fun to watch stuff like that. I have to admire the camera work that made that clip as well. No Go Pro. How'd they do it? Airplanes and an accompanying vehicle that remains unseen? Great shots, great vid.
To the 7 guys who disliked this video, you all have no idea about the old days. Compare to nowa days, the riders in the 70s/80s with older bikes(old bikes are amazing) got heap more skills than the new age teen in 21 century with them magic carpet.
i started out in the early 70,s had alot of fun now nearing 60 still racing hare scrambles the new bikes are amazing KTM 300 ...i still have my 76 bultaco in the shed i love the old but accept the fact that long travel power valves are light years ahead of the old steeds
Steve went bankrupt from the movie "Le Mans" which was a movie he wanted to make out his passion for racing so money didn't mean anything compared to his dream, and he knew where to find cash anyway lol. We never saw the Elsinore here in the states until 1973 I believe. I owned a green strip tank CR 125 Elsinore which was a 1974 acording to the Honda dealer but the frame said 1973. I never knew this existed so I did some research.
