I must admit it's something I miss as well from my old Superbike racing days.

Ric I rode a MXer a while back and was surprised that the lack of strenght in my legs left me with little control over the thing..but it was great...unbelievable the power and suspension.. I loved it so much... maybe after the hernia opperation I have been thinking... but as I said when I get on a bike all reason leaves me and I drift back to a time where it was stop or go..
I had a 350 cc yammy two stroke that I did ride on the road and frankly I was an idiot ...my Son was embarrassed because I wheel stood it thru Spencer and really scolded me so much that I saw what he was geting at.. He made me realise I could not appreciate the danger I constantly placed myself in..never crashed on the road however... It was a great bike I would ride it on the dirt with road tyres and in the dry it handled like a dream..I know there are guys much older than me riding but I must recognise I have a problem I think.
