years. Current owner purchased this bike in 1988, as an employee
of Yamaha Motor Corp US, to race the first AHRMA National MX in
Gainsville, FL, in 1989. He wanted the "baddest" thing out
there!!. He prepped the bike over the winter. Prior to his
owning the bike, it was used as a hillclimber (lengthened swingarm).
He installed a stock swingarm, did top end, checked bottom end---the
bike finished second overall to an identical SC500. Maico's were
in the back!! He trail rode the bike once before he

of storage again about 15 years ago. He changed rear tire and
geared it up for vintage flat track racing and finishing 6th. Bike
was then again fogged/drained/blew/oiled and stored. Bike has
