MX Bob Bike History - Chapter 11
1983 Honda CR480R
1983
Brushes with Fame

I got this bike from a dealer in Orange, Virginia who I will refer to only as Scott Schafer, which may or may not be his real name, but in fact is. He gave me a good deal on the bike and a nice discount on the parts. I was looking forward to starting the season in A class and having a new, hopefully better suspended, more reliable, motorcycle.

I felt really good riding on a sand track all winter (too wet for clay) but that didn't translate to results once the races started. When I got out of the USN a few months later, I decided not to race anymore.
