Old school pics!

[Dammit!]

I just got a scanner. :naughty:

All these are from the mid 80's. I was only 12 years old in a few of these on my 200x. This is the one I got brand new in 1984 (1985 model). Got a few pics of a brand spanking new 250sx and a 1981 110 in here too. Some of them have been posted before but not at this quality (it's the best these old pics can get).

The 200x went through some transformations between pics. You'll see the progression from totally stock to what it looked like before I got rid of it (don't have any pics from when it was completely done though).

I have a TON of pics. Should I post the whole motherload? :eek:

[ATCR250R]

Post those bad boys up! That project X you have must bring you back in time!

[Dammit!]

More :pics:

My friends 250sx was literally only days old in some of these.

[mark38090]

[Chevy200s]

Awesome pictures man, it is really cool to see them back when they were brand new. Nice wheelies too!

I also have to say, I do like pie:lol: :w00t:

[84honda200s]

[Dammit!]

Still got more. I've been trying to narrow it down a bit. I started with like 70. :eek:

[Dammit!]

[Tri-ZNate]

Ah I love the SX pics. You had one sick racer X back then.

[Dammit!]

The one I have now will be better (eventually :lol: ).

[Dammit!]

That's all folks!

[maggiesboy]

great pics!:D

my four year old is all kinds of happy looking at them too.

[Kintore]

Sweet doug! Nice pics, love the roost ones in the woods!

Shame thats all the ones you got!

[Dammit!]

It isn't all of them. Just the best of them. I probably have at least another 50 total but they aren't worth posting.

[firefirefire90]

None of those pics are in Arizona. ;) I grew up in Ohio. These are all in and around Toledo.

Do a search for my username and "pics" in the title if you want to see a bunch of AZ pics.

[chris200x]

thanks for sharin! :beer

[the great gazoo]

Oh WOW, this has got to be the best pic thread in many moons. Way to go, Dammit!

[nate b]

AWESOME ,how did you talk your parents into getting a 200x? I was the same age in 84 when I got my brand new wheeler, took me probably 6 months worth of crying to get a 125m. I wanted the 200x bad. I could have had a blue 110 but opted for the extra 15cc. 3years later I had my R anyways.

[firefirefire90]

A lot of people like pie!

[Huffa]

"Dammit" !!! Dammit, those are great!! Are you still a skinny runt like that? :lol:

Who is responsible for taking most of those?

Really, I enjoyed that a LOT !!

Post some of the stupid ones, will ya?

Do you still have any of that old school apparel your wearing? Any items from back then?

I started begging in 1981 for a 110 like my friend had. By the time late 1984 had rolled around I was too big for a 110 (probably not quite big enough for a 200x but I grew a few inches within that first year so it worked out). My mom was always 100% against it. My dad finally caved. Probably just to get me to shutup. :lol:

Huffa: My friends took the pics. Probably three or four different people. I don't have any of that gear anymore. I wish I still had the Simpson helmet. It got stolen a few years back along with my brothers mint 1982 250R. :mad:

[mad_max]

Great Stuff Dammit... Makes me wish I woulda took pics at the Honda and Kawa shops back in the early 80's. I noticed a Hondaline shirt on in of the SX pics... do you still have it?

[Dammit!]

No that shirt is long gone. I don't even remember what happened to it but I was probably 14, maybe 15 at most the last time I saw it.

[350xBomb]

Who ever took those action pics got some great shots....looks like a whole field of dump truck loads of rock yer crawling over on the SX there, those are the best. Should you post more tho? I donno Im pretty fond of pie...aw what the hell, keep em comin. :)

[Dammit!]

By popular demand... MORE PICS! :lol:

[Dammit!]

Here's a pic from the first time I took the motor out to rebuild the top end. I was like 12 or 13 (and es it ran perfectly afterwards!).

Who can spot the no-no in this batch? :lol:

[Dammit!]

The kid on the Trail 90 bike is responsible for taking most of these pics. :beer

[Dammit!]

:w00t: :w00t: :w00t:

[ATCR250R]

Well I think instead of saving his life, perhaps you gave edog a heart attack from all the pics! HAHA JK

[Dammit!]

Last two! Seriously this time! There's nothing else left to post that's worthy.

Good eye! :welcome:

[Kintore]

LOL Thats awesome doug! You rode hell or high water eh?

Way to be! How often did you ride? Everyday all day?

[Dammit!]

How often did you ride? Everyday all day?

Every single day for hours. Back then I could just ride right from my house. Now I have to load up, drive for a minimum of one hour, unload, etc. It sucks.

[McDerry]

Pole vaulting off your leg, shame on you...

[Darius1502]

[Keith Salyer]

This was started in 07. The pics probably expired from where they were hosted. i.e. shutter bug, photobucket....

How about something from around 1981. ;)

Man, that is a sweet pic. The look on your face says it all! I guess you didn't need goggles cause you were in the lead all the time!

[Keith Salyer]
