Wakefield Park - '73 Yamaha RD250

Stay Upright Motorcycle Techniques Instructor's Training day at Wakefield Park, near Goulburn NSW. Riding my 1973 Yamaha RD250 trying to catch up on the turns what I loose on the straights.

I would be ashamed of myself to have my ass handed to me by a 250 from 1973! Great riding mate. Love that two stroke scream.

[@ingopinkowski1091]

I disguised my 250 with 350 cylinders, You should have heard the screams and swearing then.😁😁😎

[@ingopinkowski1091]

And I didn't brake in curves like this either🤩😇😇

Yes, as long as there are no straights. It's good to have the fours come blasting past then working on the corners to see how quickly I can get back on the back of them, if at all. There was a bit of traffic and we were trying to be careful in passing. It was supposed to be on the straights only. I didn't have enough go to pass anyone on the straights, so it was under braking, before turn in.

I've just been to the Penrite Broadford Bike Bonanza. The 250 was running really well & I got some video there that I am editing. I even kept up with Kevin Magee for all of about 3 nanoseconds! I should have it posted up within the next few days.

Great job I really enjoyed your work.The guys on the late model 4s should have been to embarrassed to pass you on the straight.

[@VonGamben]

Hahahaha all the light speeded Tie fighters are chased by the furious mosquito in the curves!

Not bad for a 45 year old bike! M
