With more midrange wallop and a multitude of
chassis refinements, the biggest RM is a meaner-than-ever big-bore threat.

It was a dark, stormy night when I arrived
at the Count's secluded castle. The carriage driver would only take me to the
foot of the long, winding, windswept road that lead upward to the gates, and I
thought it queer that his hand trembled when he took my money. His eyes were
wide with fright as he sped away, whipping his horses as though all the hounds
of hell were after him. Poor devil. He had heard about the TM400 Cyclone.

Back country cycling, or "trail riding" is
one of the leading influences behind the lightweight motorcycle sales boom.

Triumph TR5MX Avenger (1974) |
|
The "Triumph" TR5MX is almost identical to
the BSA B50MX we tested in the March '72 issue of Cycle, which was the last BSA
to be built. Its brothers either ceased to be manufactured or were given the
Triumph name as Birmingham Small Arms, the parent company of both brands, acted
to save itself by concentrating on its most profitable and popular bikes.

Had a dog, his name was Yaller, he sure was
a snappy feller (but I kinda dug the S.O.B).

Yamaha’s new YZ250E may handle like a 125,
but it has real 250 muscle. And these qualities make the E-type Yamaha’s best
motocrosser yet.

mono-flaw.

Remember Yamaha's '81 works 250s, with their
Power Valves, liquid-cooling and trick rear suspension? Well, no need to live in
the past—this year's production YZ250J has it all.

Yamaha YZ465G (1980, Cycle) |
|
Motocross riders are always screaming for
more low-end torque, wheel travel and suspension quality. Let them
holler—Yamaha's YZ465 has enough of each to silence a whole pack of malcontents.
If it's peak horsepower they're after, one lap behind the 465 will quiet them.
