Just like Roger DeCoster and Joel Robert in the Trans-AM races we went to at Puyallup Raceway Parkīut really, I did race a Honda SL100. Ready to race in the 80 degree heat for sure. Had to have a kidney belt too, your body was the majority of your suspension, and don’t forget your Jofa shoulder pad/chest protector just in case.
It was the early ‘70’s, I mean look at those lace up MX boots, real leather pants or ”Leathers” the bright orange Bell Star helmet (their first issue of a “full face helmet”) deer skin MX gloves, and those Hang Ten Florescent green top MX socks neatly cuffed over the top of your boots.
