    The repurpose of those old buildings the way you did them is amazing in its own right.the motorcycles are mind blowing.I had no idea how many of the epic moto cross bikes you have acquired that are minty fresh.wealthy collectors preserved them as an investment & now you & your son proudly ride & display them giving the history too..just amazing.

    Are we talking the same Raffi who grew up in Brewster on Cape Cod, got into enduro, worked for Kevin Hines at his carbon shop for a while...his voice...Raffi Knows me from back in the day, what the heck is he up to these days!? I can’t believe I’m seeing him again, and here...I’m tripping...he still wears the same style pants, cut his hair and put some weight on, yep that’s him! He used to have long dreadlocks! The Museum is Outrageous, what a tour...kinda far from Arkansas.👊

    Kaplan you walked right by the KDX that is worth mentioning ! Back in about 1976 we were at Indianapolis raceway Park when they had a wera road race. Someone had put Avon road racing slicks on a stock Can-Am 250 and won The 250 class.. the big deal of the day was team Kawasaki had just released their latest 650 cc four cylinder 4 stroke road racer . That a big presentation was Kawasakis allgreen 18-wheeler and all their designers in team that had went together to build this thing for the race. They ended up placing third place.. as it was two of our local boys, Derk James who got first place on his stock RD400 TWO STROKE TWIN YAMAHA and a co-worker at my local Honda shop , Howard Acres who got 2nd place on his stock Honda CB750 Super Sport ! It was quite a hoot to witness !

    Did the guy who won the Isle of Man on this 1973 ossa did he also win in 1975? If so it may be the same guy that one first overall at our old race we had in terre Haute river bottoms on Thanksgiving Day called the beer can Derby , usually about a hundred miles or maybe a little longer in 1975 we had around 400 people showed up that day... The last time we had the beer can derby was in the '90s and they started out in the 50s so it was a race that ran for 40 years we had people from seven different countries down there annually is your typical outlaw race on the farm that was I don't know why how big it was 2,084,000 acres a farmer died a few years back Atlanta sold to Western paper and they closed it all down and I ain't allowed to ride her dirt bikes anymore in that area. But I'm curious about that also because it wasn't that many houses won the Island of Man first overall and 1975 we had the winter show up without the man first overall on ultra 175 it's been so long ago I can't recognize whether that's it or not but probably wouldn't have been anyway cuz they even had a brand new one 75 and 1975.. don't realize today that the top ends on some of these old European built were quite fast for the size...
