Early 90s MX gears...

[CHOPPA]

Im after good condition retro MX gear! I just scored an old pair of fox image racing gear, i think about 1990 its bright green and pink haha does anyone have any of that sorta thing kicking around?

FOX image, Thor fast boys, Answer AK7, Alpinestar Tech 2s lol

Also considering doing up an old kx250 like around a 1990 ish and putting a new motor in and suspension etc, it will be fun riding around in old school gear on a real old bike that performs! Might have to talk to Mr Motorcycles see if kawasaki still have parts for the old girls!

[CHOPPA]

Actually if anyone has a KX500 they would be keen to swap for a KXF450 done 20hrs that would be the ticket!!

[CHOPPA]

Jesus, that page is hilarious, I pissed myself reading the whole site :lol:

I'm sure mum has some of my children's 90s BMX and roller blading paraphernalia in a box in a cupboard somewhere. Knee pads with pink scribbles and `RAD SPORTS' emblazoned on them :eek:

[Sparky Bills]

Thats tragic...haha

One of the mechanics at work has an old CR500. We have a new piston, rings etc coming from japan. Could be a bit of fun..:whistle:

[clmintie]

The saddest part of all this (well apart from me pretending I can still ride MX....) is that my early 90's Fox Image gear is still way more comfortable and longer lasting than my new stuff. Wish it wasn't so..... how shall I say it..... bright... Grace and Sophie won't let me wear it in public anymore, but late at night, when no ones around and the full moon's out...... :whistle:

[scott411]

do i get a prize if i can name the track Phil?

haha mean thats the stuff i want! old bradshaw replica spider web gears!! The only thing worse then wearing bright pink gear is getting beaten by someone wearing bright pink gear! Ill be keen to have a look at the armor Bart!

Hover your curser over the pic..........and all will be revealed....

[scott411]

Did some one say KX 500?..... This guy was at Ardmore on Sunday. Sounded how a MX'er is supposed to sound. He was having a ball.....

That sounds about right... As a reward, you may wear the PINK armour at the next club day..... :lol: (Just kidding, no one deserves that...)

Hey its RED *coughpinkcough* dammit

[Latte]

i had a pair of very similar alpinestars, white and blue, with an Arai helmet that had a "Mad Kiwi" painted on it, even with blood dripping from it's beak - coolest 13 year old at the track with that. Also had pink Scott Goggles with "paint splatter" graphics and a pink Kidney belt and gloves. And the Fox jersey with the pink and green barb wire graphics across it.

Still have some Yellow/Grey Fox gear from ~10 years ago, and a pair of "holographic" Scott goggles (bullet holes if anyome remembers - always wanted the "eddie eyes" though).

[barty5]

i still have an old fox cotton shirt as well found in bottom of draws a while back very retro.

when ever dad's modern boots break,
he puts on his old leather buckled boots which he still has from the 70's, has all the rest of the gear to go with it as well, leather gloves leather chest protechtor, pretty much leather for everything.
