THE WEEKLY FEED: SEPTEMBER 14, 2016

BLAST FROM THE PAST

aberg-bul — Team Bultaco’s Bengt Aberg at Saddleback Trans Am circa 1974. Bengt was always a hero of our clan, from his Husky days , through Bultaco and his Yamaha TT500 escapades. No one could hook a turn like Bengt as his inside knee could tuck behind the bar and allow him to maintain his cornering angles. Check out the bars-reinforced outside of the crossbar.

THE COOL STUFF

AS SEEN ON MY DESK

rhodes — I rode quite a bit with David Rhodes in the late 80s and early 90s. He was a rocket out of Washington state, his mom and dad always look care of me at the races and treated yours truly like family. Here’s David, Husaberg mounted at the Australian ISDE.

screen-shot-2016-08-17-at-12-30-52-pm — Love this shot that somehow came across my desk of Brad Lackey and his World Championship winning RM500, equipped with a Simons UDX Upside down fork and an Ohlins shock.
