Newer 16.5+ cobra venom engine is pretty bulletproof. Typically get 60-80 hours out of a clutch. Sold our KTM 50 and got a 2020 fwe. Way less issues and great parts support.
Does anybody recognize this bike or name? It's got aftermarket black rims which were common on the FBF bikes. I see a billet top clamp and bar mounts but not much else trick on it. Looks like a good parts bike.
Polka Dots MC in Midland, MI

I did hear lots of complaints about the vintage program. Anyone with an alloy swingarm on a 1974 model was forced to race the "EVO" class for 76 and 77 bikes.
Say a prayer for Kevin at Circle F. He is battling some health issues and had to close his shop. I'm not sure if the closure is permanent depending on his health.
Buddy of mine sells all sorts of parts on facebook from his shop. All used or NOS parts. Mostly on the brand specific pages. Yamaha YZ, Kawasaki KX, etc.
Most of the michigan vintage crowd runs the michigan vintage motocross series and nothing else. 13 races a year for us locally. Might be the reason there are no AHRMA nationals here except red bud now.
