    I met Kenny at a charity event for Gary Cowan in the 90s. A true gentleman and motorcycle god.

    Looks good and the sound of a two-stroke 😊

      Two strokes make an annoying ear-drilling insect sound. But they sure crank out the power.

    1980 I got a set of leathers from Kenny Roberts SR they were red and black with diamond pattern on the thigh area along with a pair of red and blue Scott boots I will never forget that day as a 13 year old teen starting to race dirt bikes my first bike was a Kawasaki KX 80 he has said the most important thing to know when racing is how to breathe and to look ahead of yourself on the track back then at the age of 13 I showed him some drawings of a motor cross bike with a front swing arm

      Yeah, he explained it in his book too.
      I hope you could have raised your speed and success due to his kind (kinG) advices...
      Still own the gears?

    Smokers where the best days of motorcycle racing, 500gp & 250gp. Mad Max Biaggi won his first 500 gp race on a non factory Honda his American mechanic Evr Kanemoto. Max also won four 250gp championships.

    Ah oui, sympa Kenny Robert sénior, à l'époque il avait de belles machines avec cette 750 OW 31, et surtout sa 500 jaune et noire🏍️👍 , le pourquoi de son surnom de " Nain jaune " Belle prestation, il faut le faire, il n' y avait pas beaucoup d'électronique à l'époque sur ces deux temps ... ou si peu... Juste l'allumage ! Bravo 👏 le King 👑 ! Phil 🇨🇵. Gsxr 1000 r. 2018 Originslimited n 14.

      FZ750 rocks. I have an FZ750/1000. I raced it in Production class in 1985, when it was stock. The FZR1000 engine went in later. That moved it into the Premier League, brother. I raced in eastern Canada and the northeast US. Where did you race?
