One of the best things about dirt bikes in the 70’s was the number of manufacturers there were. Man if I could go back I’d buy all kinds of different makes, Hodaka, Can-Am, Maico, SWM, Fantic, Bultaco, Ossa, Montessa, on and on I love those days so much. At 56 now I miss trail riding in general, I think a bike would cheer my spirits up I really do. The wife thinks I’m crazy, I told her it’s not just a passing phase,it’s in the blood.
First minute I was thinking stay to the left...shame to hear about all those accidents..used to go to Isle of Man on holiday every year with me parents and even in September it was cold but me mum loved swimming and I'd have no choice come on get in the sea it's lovely,it was bleedin freezing🥶🥶...shame they don't still do it maybe all the accidents back in the 70s stopped it with the TT as well.... GRT upload ...did laugh at how the man pronounced (kipper's)....
Enjoyed that, off to watch part 2 now.
A Grand Prix start, TT x Enduro here would be awesome. 1975, great year for dirt bikes.

Impossible to watch this vid with the sound on. The background "music" is like torture.
