The Mighty RM465 traveled to a new (old) home on Sunday. Sad to watch it drive away in the back of another truck.......I get way too attached to my bikes!
I say new (old) because the purchaser was buying this bike for the second time! He owned the bike years ago, sold it, and then I came along and bought it from the person he sold it to! He actually confirmed the story that I was told about this bike being built to race the Red Bud 500 National some 30 years ago. Pretty cool.
This bike brought me many very good memories and I raced it in 6 different states and won 4 National titles on it (2 AMA, 2 AHRMA). Truly one of my all time favorite bikes that I've owned. Nearly unbeatable on the start! I've never ripped such massive holeshots before as I did on this bike.
