While doing some resurch on the bike  I was sent to that thread. And to make long story short I grew up right behide turn 3 of the San Jose Mile. when I was a pup we were in the pits and Ricky broke some thing on his bike during a heet race and needed some thing welded my dad was a welder and had every thing needed in our garage. They rolled the bike over. My dad made the repair, mon made sandwiches for every one there and Rick gave me his hat and the T-shirt he was wearing signed both ant I still have them.

 Are you talking about the Yamaha TZ 700-750 ? Sad that he took his own life. Depression is hard to understand when your on the otherside.   :(

 They only ran a year or part of a year till they got banned. KOS on here has I think a Trackmaster 750 Honda, recently built.
