Used to ride a Yamaha WR450....No more for me right now, they are shutting down all riding areas around me.....
Buddy has an 06 YZ450F and that thing is just plain amazing!!!
Oh yeah my only bike I have to ride now is my 1992 Z50....and trx70 err(85)....
Looking for a YSR50 if anyone knows where a good one is

No dirtbike since my 93 Honda XR 80. I got into quads and now I have a 2002 Honda 400 ex with tons of mods. I hardly ever get to ride so I'm gonna stick with that for a while. Otherwise I would have a newer 450.
Fast Fun, what trails do you ride up there?

Nice Bikes Chris
Chris, That's cool that you have the old Maicos. The CR500AF is a nice custom built bike. I have a 99 CR250 that I race in vet (40 plus). Recently moved to PA from Ohio and have only practiced here. Lots of nice tracks. This is AMA district 6. Seems to be getting harder to find places to ride that are not actually race tracks. We had a state forest in Ohio that was 10 minutes from my house, but I have not found anything like that in southeast PA yet. Love to see some pics of everyones bikes. I have enjoyed riding and racing dirt bikes since I was 10 years old.

I raced Maicos when I was younger and still have my 74.5 440 that I bought new with my paper route money. The CR500AF is a killer. It'll tear your a$$ right off the seat and leave without you if you don't treat the throttle with respect.

Chris,
That Maico is Beautiful. Fox Airshocks to boot! Brings back great memories. I raced Suzuki's in the 100 class (remember that?!) and 125 B class while I was in high school. In college I raced open bikes. I had a 78 YZ400, 80 KX420 and an 82 465 Suzuki (my favorite!) As cool as the new four strokes are, It's tough to beat the rush of riding an open class 2-stroke!
