View: http://youtu.be/8IXMSmNIzu0 Always liked this one plenty of cagiva focus as it was new to states at the time.
sweet! i remember watching this in '87 makes me want to dig out all those old VHS tapes with MotoWorld episodes and Carlsbad races. loved that track!
..watched this vid a few times, but caught a glimpse of what appears to be a gas can just behind the front wheel at around minute 5:38 that looks to have a Husky logo on it!
Quite a race and not sure I've ever met a real Cagiva ... I do remember getting a part with that brand though ... 6:32 mark the #28 rider looks almost like he chops the throttle going over that short jump in order to get his front tire set up for that turn ... White was the color of the day? -- Did a little reading on Kalos rider ... He talks about the starter worker has changed since his days ... How do you think the sport has changed? Man, it’s just a different scene. When I was racing, the starter was a middle-aged ref with a gut and uniform. Today you have this girl wearing a tight outfit holding a board covered with sponsor stickers.
nothing wrong with that at all, i rode one of the last straight cagiva 250 bikes as it felt great...always wanted an italian bike to complement my swedes. i really view my 95 as a cagiva more than anything..
When this was originally aired we had to laugh saying the Cagiva's were brand new to the US. We were racing Cagiva's back in 83 in the Southern California Desert. Being truthful, it was a better Desert Bike than a Motocross Bike. In 84 the WMX125 won the points Championship in the Score Series. That bike is sitting in my garage and will be getting a full restoration soon.
