At 67, yes, I remember all those bikes and had a few and still have all the motocross magazines from back then. Everyone thought De Coster could never be rivaled and then came an arrogant , confident "Hurricane" Bob Hannah. Watched him at Pontiac (MI) Silverdome often . Watched him one year..fell in first lap of A-Main and got up and won it !! I had Suzuki,s and Yamaha YZ 400 )first of mono-shockers) , also had one of the "legendary" 440 Maiko,s (awesome machine for it's time) Remember Hodaka ! Wombat and Combat Wombat? Can-Am. Even used to stud them up and race ice in winter. Wheelies on glare ice...people,s eyes popped out watching. What fun. Then came wife and 2 kids and self employed so no health ins....I got smart before I got hurt..got rid of all bikes at age 32 or so. Thanks for the "memory lane" post.
