Bummer. I saw him 11 trucks in the 70's at Green Vally Race City in Dallas. To me as a kid, he was larger than life. People say his jumps were lame compared to the stunts (backflips, 360 whips, etc.) pulled these days. They forget he was on a diesel pig XR750 with 5" of suspension travel.

Got that right Scott! I'd like to see those bitch *** punks try his style on the bikes he rode. They couldn't even go around a flat track w/o going home crying to their Mommies! Hats off to a True American Legend!

How about those who can still ride this time of the year ride with your pass. pegs down this weekendin his honor. Yes he was a stunt rider, maybe bit off but basically rode a stocker not some cut up and lighten bike to do the stunts and he had quite a following to boot. Con dolences to his family.

and he would back down from no thing or no body.

First picture -
