    I'm so into knowing the history about husqvarna and dirt bike plus interested in the older desert racing. The triumph, greeves, and were husqvarna actually entered the scene etc. I found this film interesting. Just remember to dodge the pucker bushes.
    I think this is 60's dated. I love history.
    Enjoy


    Go to, "YouTube Hare and Hound racemx904" narrated and filmed by Bruce Brown. It's first motorcycle film. There's lots of big name riders you may recognise from his later motorcycle movies like On Any Sunday.

    Those early hare and hound bikes were heavy. Triumphs etc. With only 5" of travel on the suspension. Look at the suspension travel in the video it's not much.

    I just ordered this DVD from Amazon it's hard to find and not many left.

    I'm thinking about the future when I can't ride I can watch videos.

    Has anyone seen this first desert racing video? I have an older video on the hare scrambles these were on the older Harley sized bike but there old European heavy bikes.
    There were tough bikers back then.

    I'm sorry but I get all pumped up watching this old iron with the huskys of the time.
