Another Retro Race Day is in the books

Miss Retro drove the race rig home while I handled the important job of riding shotgun and radio.

Care to guess which picture of the Retro Dog was taken when I was driving and she was driving??

Another fun day at the track!
The bikes are running better every weekend. Me? Well... I'm still waiting on a factory rebuild kit. πŸ˜†

If you spot the retro rig at a track near you, stop by and say hi. Even if we don't have the display set up, we're always hauling inventory and happy to talk vintage moto, racing, or whatever broke on your bike this week.

See you at the races! 🏁🏍️

Since switching from my trusty 35hp '78 YZ400E to a YZ490, my carpal tunnel has slowly started making a comeback.

My scientific conclusion? The bone-stock YZ400 was apparently much easier on my wrists than a 55hp paint-shaker disguised as a motorcycle.

Part of it is on meβ€”I got lazy with my wrist stretching and need to get back on that. But I'm curious what the other big-bore survivors are doing.

This weekend I'm swapping to a Fat Bar and hoping to reduce the amount of feeling my hands lose after every moto.

What are your best YZ490 anti-vibration tricks?

Bar mounts?
Different grips?
Gloves?
Fill the bars with silicone?
Ibuprofen and bad decisions?

Looking for ideas from anyone who's figured out how to ride a YZ490 without developing the grip strength of a hydraulic press and the wrists of an 85yr old roofer.

For some reason last week, I decided my stock YZ490 would look a lot better as a 1983 Glover Replica YZ/OW490.

A quick call to Tom at DC Plastics and a set of translucent side panels, number plates, and fork guards (still not installed) were on the way.

Then it was time to fire up the design program and create some 1983 tank graphics, β€œ490” side panel decals, and Moto-X swingarm stickers to complete the old-school factory look. I also sandblasted the clutch cover, and an ’87 YZ250 kickstarter helped tie everything together perfectly.

The extra-tall seat I built actually works really well with the overall look, and at some point this year I’m planning to pull the pipe, strip it down, and have it coated to give it more of that factory OW bike finish from back in the day.

It’s coming together pretty damn good for a garage-built vintage MX project.

I'm really liking this background app. 😁

Late night in the moto lab wrenching on the YZ’s.

With a little luck, the weather will hold out… and so will my hip and back.

Vintage motocross: where the bikes are 40 years old and the riders feel 80.

See you at the track.
