"I don't wanna die." Hahaha! He's got that right. My 1980s race buddy had that same year. The rear end caused him to beg for a spinal transplant. The pinging sound that bike made after it got hot was only outdone by the blubbering.

I will say this though - that is a nice example of that bike.

My lower back just popped out thinking about all the vibration of that beast...

Ouch.

I used to race with a friend that had a 82 YZ490. My biggest memory is him always having problems getting it started before motos!
