Man, there's just something about a two stoke dirt bike. I like the 70s early 80s finned air cooled motors the best. I rode the tar out of my Kawasaki's back then with Bel- Ray MC1. And never had any motor troubles. 79 KX250, 80 KX250, 82 KX250. The 79 was twin shocked and very beautifully made. The 80 was first year for UNI-Track rear suspension. The 82 was first year for front disc brake.
# 4. Team Kawasaki Ron lechine won. RIGHT on. That's cool. I wish # 23 micky diamond would of won. Or # 10 team hondas guy cooper. Still a good race. Love these old school supercross races. Thank you for sharing this
I know there has been a debate about the most naturally talented SX riders such as Bailey,Bayle etc. but I think It’s definitely Lechien! And style for miles!
Lachine one of the greats of that time as was Geoff Ward Guy Cooper and of course Rick Johnson he was amazing , I remember one race where he came off and and was passed by all the other riders only to get back on that CR and win he did !
I am so sick of "penis pill" ads, and ED ads dominating the local radio, (in my area). How about some dirt bike ads? I can't remember the last time I saw a modern dirt bike ad.
Not this is racing...Crazy how uou can watch these and see the bikes get faster and faster over the years mainly do to the suspension getting better and better. The forks see so soft on these bikes lol
RIP Pontiac Silverdome. Only place I ever was privileged to see the greats.
If Ron "THE MACHINE" Lechien would have taken racing as serious as other top riders did he would have went down as one of the greatest !
Ron Lechien was absolutely the smoothest ride at to ever throw a leg over a motorcycle. I loved JT riding apparel.
The “Machine” at his absolute best, 👏👍
These tracks seem way more technical then they have now
I love my 89 KX 250. This racing was so much better than today and the bikes were to.

Lechien was known as fastest rider for 1 lap back then.
Blendzall love the smell and the memories
I was in the Front row in the first turn. what a race! Bring back Detroit Monster SuperCross again in THE D!!!
Why is Jeff Stanton on a 1990 machine and everyone else on 1989's?
Stanton had a white frame. Prophetic.
