I better book the ferry & get my tickets! You keep posting convincing arguments as to why it's a must do event. Thanks for sharing.

Incredible bike and I remember him going to it from Honda, it was deffo full works and underrated these days. Looks to me like Thorpe liked a plusher bike and this was stiffer, rigid cornering and so much things to try they got a bit lost. Malin did well on it and sometimes people just don’t get on with certain bikes, I had a 1990 kx 250 and loved it 👍

That is a thing of beauty just the way a kx should look wouldn’t no if to mate with it or ride it had a 88-89 kx250 was a beast loved 3rd gear
