Lake George NY ice racing on my WR250 smokin the 450s. No ice this year so I keep the Number One Plate for another year, He He.
Sure did! There's a local OHV park here, costs $17.50 a year for sticker to ride there. It was closed pretty much all year last year because of flooding (it's right on the Missouri river). It's open this year, so I got a sticker. Seems to stay wet long after the rain stops. I spent more time cleaning the bike and gear than I did riding!
Your's is a lovely old bike, very similar to the above beast of a WR400 tested by Australasian Dirt Bike (Australia) in 1986.
My TE610 taking a dirtnap because I tried to ride it like the TE450. North of Reno, NV. Taking the TE610 down a trail I shouldn't be doing. You can't tell in the pic, but the back wheel is about 18" off the ground. I bounced myself right off the bike and down the hill. I turned around to look at where the bike ended up, and was completely surprised to see it balanced on that boulder. Pyramid Lake, Nevada
