Here’s some of the pro photos from the race along with some from recent bike shows.
At the race I got to test the bike in the dirt for 5 mins. Then it was off to the starting line. When we were a few rows from starting my clutch broke. After pushing it back to the pits I found that I adjusted it wrong and it had popped past the cam lobe. I readjusted it and went off after everyone had started.
The race was the Biltwell 100 and I was in the adventure light novice class. We were supposed to do 3 laps (75 miles) but I had only completed 2 and timed out after 4 hours and 20 mins on course. I had crashed twice. The first time was pretty bad to where I thought I had broke my leg but it was just the mixture of the thigh being stabbed by the bar end and my shin smashing into the engine case. After about 20 mins on the side of the course I trucked along. The bike had no mechanical issues after the clutch incident which is impressive for how long it sat out in the desert.
On lap 2 I had switched to my white pants and t shirt. This is my favorite photo from the race.

Both my Hondas on display at the Reunion Show in SoCal.
I had the privilege to have the bike on display at Born Free with other vintage desert sleds.
It’s fun seeing the different reactions from people. Some look at it as a normal bike, others look at it in horror and just few are in love with it like myself and think it’s the coolest bike on the lot.
I left out a lot of info, if you have any questions just let me know and I can answer them or get you photos.
Hope you enjoyed. More upgrades coming soon for the next race.
