Hello my friends. I am from New York and do not speak French but I think we all speak the same here in Vintage MX. I am 50 years old and live close to Unadilla.

I own a 1981 IT 465 and a 1982 490.

I just sold my 1150 GS.

I hope you can all enjoy my pictures.

Me and Brad Lackey this summer at a Vintage race in Ohio.

Donnie Hansen, Rick Johnson, Gary Jones, Jimmy Weinert, John DeSoto from this past summer.

and Marty Tripes!

1974 450 Kawasaki. All of these pictures are from this summer at a Vintage Race in Ohio.

the Yamaha runs. The Maico needs to be restored, or overhauled. I bought both bikes this year.

this bike is on EBay and is costing over 20,000 USD $$$.

here it is in case you are interested.

Thanks for your cool pictures and future...!

thanks very much. it is hard to find good vintage mx on the web. this is the best I've seen yet.

I recently posted a picture of a KTM 420 on KTMTalk. Someone commented on how much they liked the bike so I searched google on images for KTM 420 and found this website.

thanks again to everyone for the warm welcome. look forward to sharing all of our memories.

mXteam.com's definitively an international place now !!

an américan on our small forum
welcome here

gracias!

You're very welcome Scott!

Since now, all of us have to write in english in this Vintage section !! Scoot will probably come back with friends (isn't it ?) soon. It could then become DA PLACE to talk about old bikes ... so, hope you didn't burnt your english school manuals, guys ...

bah, dommage que j'ai plus d'autoc moi

ça l'aurait bien fait

In english Vdub, in english ...
Is it the view from your hotel ??

DA PLACE it is! best vintage forum I've found yet. I think as americans our perspective on the European bikes, Maico, Husky, Bultaco. etc. is probably a lot different than guys from Europe who grew up in the Vintage Days. But we all mixed our gas and oil the same way. I'm really looking forward to spending time here with ya'll. ya'll is southern slang for "you all".

so you might find these interesting. On Oct 6th I attended a SMOG event. Spanish Motorcycle Owners Group. Over 80 riders and bikes were on hand for a day of just getting together and enjoying the bikes. There was a small 6 mile course laid out through the woods. And then a chicken barbacue dinner.

So here are some pics of the event. There is also a Yankee in there, and a green Kawasaki with a Bultaco engine. Hope you enjoy them. When you click on the big picture it opens up even bigger.

Hey are you guys going to watch the Giants - Cowboys football game today? Its a big game!!

Probably not because we haven't the right channel to watch "American football". Here we only have soccer.

no soccer, no football this weekend, but Tennis in Belgium
John Mc Enroe - Henri Leconte France 1 USA 0
Borg - Big Mac Sweden 0 USA 1

and to day in Spain Justine Henin - Maria Charapova Belgium 1 Rest of the World 0

WOW this Bultaco #40 is so nice ! I want the same at home !
Is it for shortrack or something similar ? Is it a factory bike ?

et Oldmx qui pipe pas un mot de briton ....

bienvenue welcom moi not speek angliche crazy oldmx sorry pour les fautes

most definitely a short track bike. ain't it nice!

the owner said it was restored 15 years ago and has been like this ever since and it just sits in his shed. his wife won't let him bring it inside.

This bike in my garage during 15 years without any possibility to go out out and ride it ???!!
I'll probably have died ... (or killed my wife )
