This incredible collection brought back a lot of fond memories for me..I owned several of the bikes featured here and that gave me many hours of riding pleasure.
Thanks for the upload. 👍😀
Many thanks for the comment Tony, glad you enjoyed the video. I’m no expert on these bike but it’s certainly a pleasure to have a walk round. I shall be attending the next one 👍
Love to see the work that has gone into these 😍
I’m Seriously considering a bike build now . Might take a while through.
AJS stormer 250cc was my first proper Scrambler at 15, what a bike !
It’s great to see some of these old bikes. I’m looking forward to a revisit to this show. It just makes you want a buy another classic dirt bike.
I started MX racing at 8 years old on a Hodaka Super Rat, was a tall kid and eventually hit 6’5””. Raced that for a few years and went with a CR125 Elsinore until about 1976 and bought a KX250. I eventually made it to the 250 expert class as a teenager and had a new KX every year. Until I graduated HS and got busy with life I guess. I love the old bikes. I currently am 61 and ride a KTM300XCW. When the smell of two strokes just gives you a feeling. 😉🙂🤙🤙🤙
It sounds like you have a deep and enduring passion for motocross racing and a particular fondness for two-stroke bikes. CR125 Elsinore and KX250 reflects a significant journey in the sport. Your transition from a young racer to maintaining this interest into your sixties, now with a KTM shows a lifelong dedication. That unique feeling evoked by the smell of two-stroke engines is something many enthusiasts can relate to; Your story is a fantastic testament to these bikes. 🏍️💨💨💨👍
Would Love To Have Been There! Started Out On A 4-Speed Trail 70 In '71. Thank You.
Excellent, it’s great to remember where we all started it brings back some great memories
Great little walk around Simon, and the first showing of the Scott Ellis BSA BOK228C since its rebuild... Thanks first class job...
Many thanks BSA Otter, such a nice day with fantastic bikes 👍
You guys are lucky down here in Texas we don't have any dirt bike show great show Simon
Thanks for the comment Wonka bee, il certainly be bringing you guys some more content. I’m lucky because I live in the middle of the uk so nowhere Is to far to travel. The dirt bike show has been one of my favourite shows. It’s inspired me to buy a old bike recently. Which il bring to the channel soon 👍
The real difference is we have the show ,but you have the country to ride them
Walking straight past Maico square barrels...
Next year’s February show will be far better now I’ve got plenty of knowledge in this sector. Let me know what you’re interested in see and il try to bring it to the channel.
I loved the metal tanks bike used to have. When Honda factory riders started extending the seat to add some padding to the tank, I thought it look cool and racking the family jewels is a feeling almost all men/boys have felt at some point in their lives. If you have, you liked the idea.
And paint looks better than plastic. Especially Honda red at that time.
I totally agree the metal tank is iconic. I’m just working on my first Honda Xl 250R 1982 ( video part 1&2 is on now if you’ve not seen it) the tank is my favourite part of the bike or tho I’ve got to get the pings and dents out first. 👍
Funny that you walked by every CZ motorcycles without even a mention. CZ won the manufacturer title every year until 1973.
Ok well that’s interesting, I’m really new to the classic dirt bike scene. So il definitely go armed with facts on the next one later this year. Many thanks for the comment. Il take note 👍
Ni Bultaco, ni Montesa😂
Even funnier NO Maico 490?
Good call fella!, didn't see a maico 81 either probably the best dirt bike ever yeah for 1 year only, but that lives on ,I'd love to see one of today's dirt bike riders jump on 490 or 500 2 stroke, they would be scared ,Haha 👍
No Ossas either!@@golfajulve1468
Great footage mate , was there on the sunday , some lovely bikes there🤙
Many thanks for the comment. I do like going to these shows. I’m really tempted to start a dirt bike build now 👀👍
One of the first two bikes please Santa, preferably the Honda.
It’s a hard choice, I can’t wait for the next show. I’m still undecided on my favourite 👍
Lovely bikes,if only I could win the lottery🤞
Some amazing bikes Neil. Some real beastly ones, 500cc 2 strokes 💨💨💨
@@thatbikersimon Love the old 2 strokes, oh the sound/smell💙
Cool, remember a lot of those older bikes ❤
I can’t wait for the next classic dirt bike show. It’s probably one of the most interesting bike shows I’ve been to 👍
@@thatbikersimon lucky!!
very nice work guys, my first bike Was a Honda CR 125 Elsinore
Thank you. It’s great to see some of the old bikes we started on. 👍🏍️💨💨💨
Some amazing bikes 👍
So many I could take them all home. 👍
That was a good video there,saw a few bikes from the good old days. I had a YZ250,my first bike,looking for another one and might even have a crack at Farleigh castle...if my knees stay on!
Many thanks for the comment, you should go for it for sure. 👍
👍👍💪
Nice to see the 1979 HONDA CR125R Elsinore. I do have one of those. Bought brandnew and I'm planning to restore it. Had fun experience and memories with it.
Many thanks for the comment 👍 this show was certainly a eye opener for me and it’s encouraged me to buy a classic dirt bike myself. Good luck with restoring the bike 👍
@@thatbikersimon Thank you sir. Likewise, good luck to you and all the best.
I started off on Yamaha DT125R, I had 4 of them , plus about 20 others, I have had a 91 YZ 250 but I would rather have my best DT125R, was brilliant for woods you could go out all day on it
That’s fantastic. The smaller bikes are so much easier to manage, I remember riding a DT125 but I would of been really young. Brings back some great memories 👍🏍️💨💨
Good presintarion 👍
Many thanks 👍
@@thatbikersimon noworries, keep the dream alive.
I started riding off road on a 1969 Honda CL175!! I’m still amazed at what I did on that old bike!! Great Video! Just Subscribed!
Welcome to the channel Tony. I know the bike. I’ve just started to restore a honda xl250r 1982 (video coming soon) I really want to ride it off road but I’m a bit worried if I brake anything because it’s been a nightmare getting parts. But il definitely do some trails and bike nights on it.
i rode a yz 490 back in the eightys loved it
love all the old bikes dont make em like that anymore
I bet that was a beast of a bike to ride I never got the change to ride anything like that. They certainly don’t make them like that anymore 👍
👏🇺🇸
Deeply and truly miss my mint condition 85 XR250. Sold it around 2008 or so. Regret it all the time.
Also, the 93 RM at 4:31 was my favorite 2 stroke i ever had.
I’m sure everyone has regretted selling a bike they wished they hadn’t Vince. There was certainly some amazing bikes at this show. I can’t wait for the next one. 👍
The trouble with the super-restored bikes, especially competition bikes, is that they never do what they were meant to do any more - start and compete!
This is very true, but still nice to look at. This show has inspired me to build my first dirt bike,hopefully some time this year and ride it in the dirt 👍
@@thatbikersimon not sure if you caught your bllooper but when you showed the PE 250 you said it was from the same year you were born,1977 and then when you showed the TY 250 outside you said you started on a TY 175 in 1980 and that you must have been about 14....how could you have been 14 in 1980 if you were born in 1977.Lol.🤣🤣
@@jaws666 I think I may of said it wrong at the time, but I was 14 then I first rode one of these bikes. It would of been around 1992 when I road it, but the bike was 1980 If I remember correctly. My dad sold it for £20 Because I was always getting into trouble with it.
@@thatbikersimon easy mistake to make...no harm done
👍👍👍
You are lost!😂
Obviously you haven’t been to a Vintage Motocross race...🤦🏼♂️
Where are all the Bultacos? We dominated the Enduro scene in the 70's!
There in my lastest dirt bike show 2024

Quality
Definitely Joe; I can’t wait for the next one. 👍
😍👍👉🇲🇾
With the demise of the T&MX News, what's the next best publication, or website, to get the "lowdown" on Motox, Trial, Enduro and other stuff?
Hi Richard, I’m new to the MX and Enduro scene so im unsure about that question,I tend to get all my info from joining Facebook groups. Sorry that’s not much help but il certainly ask around and try and find out.
The 4 bikes you filmed in a row that were for sale are mine 😄
Excellent, if you get a sale I want commission 😂 Nice bikes. I’m tempted to start a bike build now.
Then you are the one to ask. The narrator described the 1978 893 Jawa grass racer as displacing 990 cc. FOR A SINGLE CYLINDER BIKE?? If that is true I'm surprised I thought the racing Jawa motors were 500 cc.
What displacement was the ice racer???
I honestly can’t remember.
That old Husky was over restored. At least the old British bikes were authentic.
This is very true, I can’t wait for the next classic dirt bike show.
Sazuki 370 RM. ?
Didn't see a penton
Also I check at the next show for you 👍🏍️💨💨💨
Came across your channel. Awesome looking motocross bikes.
Hey from the USA love, motocross Enduro motorcycles and like to share cool channels with other’s if you don’t mind me, mentioning the channel Kaplan America in the USA him and his son run operate the New England motorcycle museum
Cool, il check his channel out Kenny. Thanks for the comment 👍
@@thatbikersimon also subscribe to your channel its cool
I was hoping to see the rarest honda 480cr 1984 have you seen one?
I haven’t but I will keep a eye out at the next show in February next year. 👍
Maico? Bultaco? Ossa? Penton? Montessa? Husqvarna?
You wont find many Pentons in the UK, as we got the KTM.
125 Honda elsenor 1981
Was that missing?
Who do I speak with about purchasing the lot of them ?
Theses bike are not for sale they are owned by private owners. If you attended the next show then I’m sure some owner might be interested in a sale
Any hodaka
I’m not sure to be honest
where maico ?😮
Next time I promise 👌
Ni bultaco montesa ossa etc...
You didn't video your food choice Simon 🤭🤭👍
I was going to but I had a Cornish pasty and I ended up wearing most of it 😂
@@thatbikersimongreat choice. Love a pastie.
Dear Biker Simon- What are you talking about? You don't even know these bikes. The 893 was a 500cc motorcycle as were all the racing Jawas singles. Who the fuck told you 990 cc, anyone? or did you just make it up.
I can only go off the information provided on the bike and your right this was a first for me on classic dirt bikes. Next month will be the 2024 version, so hopefully a big improvement. 👍🏍️💨💨
I guess you dont know about CZ you too young you passed them and didnt mention anything about CZ,they domenated the word in 60s and 70s before YZ came out so whoever dosnt know CZ realy dosnt know motocross ,like my friend he once tried to say he was from 6os but he was born in 69 i lisened to music rock and roll and hard rock in 70s but he jumped in to rap and jackson,sorry i had to say my opinion cheers.
Hey, your right I’m still learning about classic dirt bikes, I just went along to this show to have a look. Thanks for the info tho it alway helps me when I return to these shows so I can prepare for the next one 👍
But, yeah, you're just walking around showing these bikes. You don't really don't know anything about them Do you? You just walked by KX175 or was it at 125 or 250? The kalasaki, what a beautiful bike. That is, and then you didn't explain anything about the Suzuki RM. You just said so here's a Suzuki that bike has one of the most devastating power ban. Out of all the old dirt bikes Only a very skilled professional rider should even attempt to write a bike like that I think it's great that you went to this vintage dark bike show. But most of those bikes in there I for professional riders.
Your right William I never claimed to be a expert. This was my first classic dirt bike show I’ve ever been to, but everyone has to start somewhere. This was just a walk through for me. But thanks for the feedback 👍
There's no such thing as a Kalasaki KX175. 😂 I saw a Yamaha IT175. I think that the guy did OK.
@@thatbikersimonI think that you did OK. Thanks for showing. 👍
Una basura de exposición...no hay bultaco ni montesa ni ossa.....
There probably was but I didn’t see them, did you go? Il take a look next time. 👍
