I was in the top 3 and my secret (besides going crazy fast), is I was running tubeless and I discovered how to balance my wheels with out adding heavy lead weights. At the time Ed Tummy, Pat Eggan, Danny Coe & my self were the top contenders in the hardest and most popular class in all motorcycle racing. It was so popular that we were given the honor to be the last motor racing event of the 1979 decade at the Riverside race way.

I went through at least 5 or 6 LC 250 and 350s in the 80s. Loved them, although the rear shock was always too soft as standard. Allspeeds or Marvicks they sounded and went great. I moved on to racing a Stan Steven's tuned KR1S, from 91 - 94 in SS400, then a TZ350. Gave up racing in 95 when kids arrived and just stuck to fun on the roads with a few mates.

My first real ROAD BIKE was a '73 RD350 and was my only transportation for a few years...even Winter. MAN-O-MAN that was a trip to ride. It was so sporty and I had so much fun on that thing. The front end was light and liked to come up if you didn't watch the RPM's and shift just right. If you just gassed it then the front would let you know you were on some power...seen a few newbies get a quick lesson and go over backwards. I was never near enough to any tracks so never raced but IT was a kick in the ass to ride for sure. I broke so many CHAINS on that Bike I had to carry a spare with me at all times. Blew the Front tire once at low speed (20mph) in a City Park and went down pretty soft but still put a small dent the gas tank with a handle bar but other than that it was the only time it went down. I could out run the Kawi triples in the twisties but on the straights they could pull me. This was a TOTAL BLAST to watch and sure brought back some great memories on the RD350. Thanks for sharing a CLEAN RACE on a GREAT BIKE.

I bought a 350LC from a guy in San Francisco who spent untold sums of money building it into seriously fast road bike. Unfortunately he'd never riden a 2 stroke before and ran it into the back of a car the first time it came onto it's pipes. I got it for $500, put another $125 replacing the forks, and had the time of my life taring up the back roads of Northern California.

Great idea which they should consider introducing again as we have a lack of top riders at moto gp level.They tried again with the R6 cup back in 2003 but not the same as the pro am series.

One issue on these was the rear shock hardly worked and overheated causing the wallowing of the rear in corners after some time. I got mine tested by a buddy who worked at Bilstien on their shock dyno and it failed miserably, he made up a Bilstien gas shock to fit and turned some circlip slots in the body of it to fit the spring collar and stock spring and it completely solved the wallowing problem in the rear during races, regardless of the tyre and temps on the day and I'm in Aus where it is hotter than UK year round.

The RD250 LC the RD350 brother, you could ride on L plates at 17. 100mph Crazy when you think about it and that bike probably changed the Law for 2 part test etc. Great video, thank you for uploading.

Alan carter era un giovane pilota pieno di speranze Peccato veramente ma anche Alan North era così Purtroppo piloti sfortunati Un abbraccio forte è un saluto da parte del figlio di un pilota junior rimasto sempre dilettante ciao
