Rode 250 Astro Pursangs on the short track circut for a few years. Fast and fun. Not very reliable, but when they ran they were the bike to beat. If your Dad had a European shop you know all about Montessa and Penton just to name a few others. Sam |

Re: Any need these before ebay?
No that isn't mine. It is a picture of one that is currently on e-Bay. I have heard of all those bikes Bultaco, Can-Am, Montessa, Penton, Maico, Husky, Hodaka. I hated the left kick start on the Elsinore 250s. The last MX bike I had was an 81 RM125. I ran it in the ground. If I had any place to ride I would love to have another one.

Those "Old" Bikes
Yes I remember all those and even the Can Ams that popped up and ran good. Being a kid on a stripped enduro riding with the older guys whenyou could actually go 30 mils up trails had it's faults though. The older guys I rode with all had Bultacos and Maicos and that was about the time they came out with the 4.60/18 back tire that had that one
w i d e center lug and a Maico with one of those would throw bricks at us kids on slower stuff. I have a YZ250,Moto 4 225 and Warrior 350 4 wheelers now as well as my collection of enduros. Oh well one day I'll quit maybe but I can always justify them as pit bikes at the drag(car and boat)racesand lake and the Harley to throw on the truck for transportation while there... |

Tres ,How much are you looking to get for them?

Re: Any need these before ebay?
Remember Bob "Hurricane" Hannah?
He made that 125 famous. |
Re: Any need these before ebay?
Gary Bailey and Pierre Karsmakers weren't too bad either.

Re: Any need these before ebay?
How about Broc Glover? Just a little later, but a Yamaha rider nonetheless.
Those guys were real iron men. Sorry Tres, got carried away. Great playbikes you got there. |
