Vintage Two Strokes / Nachtflugs Vintage 2 stroke photo thread.

Merry Xmas ho ho ho..

I finally uploaded my pictures from the 2009 Unadilla National MX 2 stroke race they had in August. They made the 2 strokes run in a special "exhibition" type of 4 lap thing because they didn't want guys on $50,000 4 strokes getting stuffed by some guy on a $6000 2 stroke with $3000 worth of suspension work and an aftermarket pipe.

I figured it was time to start a photo thead on this cool website so here are some shots of the Jammer, Laporte, Kessler, Mike Leavitt, and all the rest of the supporting cast and characters. There are even a few of our host John.

2 strokes rule.

General Two Stroke Talk / nachtflugs signature 2 stroke motocross thread

Greetings and happy tidings from Nachtflug.

Surfing Marks Vintage Swapmeet today and saw a SWEET 1975 Can Am 250 MX1 just likethe one I used to have so I thought now was as good a time as any to start a thread here. I've been shooting MX photography in the Hudson Valley for over 2 years now and I'm still amazed at the changes in my almost 30 years away from the sport. We were at Unadilla in 72, or was it 71, when they black flagger Arne Kring and they said he was pretty mad when he found out, having ridden the wheels of his Husky. Made it to the big U every year for 10 years and this year was my first year back in 29 years, where I also met our host John Nicholas.

So I'll just post all my 2 stroke ramblings here.

Does anyone have any interest in a 2008 Yamaha WR250R? Its kind of gutless..
