Kinda funny, but tell me you didn't save at least 3-5 pictures on your hard drive.

I like it, except for when it called the 1981 250R a 200S...

I can't tell if this article is half joking or intentionally misinformative of our sports history. Shame, really.

EDIT:

Happy April Fools day....well ain't that nice.

Yeah it was well done at the beginning (sounded believable) then its mocks trikes and it was obviously a spoof. Oh well....some cool pictures at least.

Jeremy McGrath on a banshee... Yeah right:wondering.
"The King of Supercross would reward them with a record seven straight National ATV MX titles on his Skip Norfolk tuned Banshee". Suuuuure!!! :crazy:
Where did they get this info??? Maaann...
It makes for fun reading. But I don't think any of that is true, if it is, please, correct me.

TORKER.

Kind of entertaining. But still wondering what that first pic with the Yamaha 3 wheeler is. Looks to be a suspended two stroke

Cool, looks like a yz250 with a trimoto frontend and a custom swinger setup. Looks cool and fun

Custom triple clamps and I think they used YZ80 or YZ100 forks, they look to have too small of a diameter to be YZ250 forks that are shortened.
