Jeff Smith gone.

motogrady

He was THE guy in Motocross in the early 60s.
2 times 500cc World Champion on a factory BSA.
A great Observed Trials rider also.

This short clip brings to light things not often seen, understood, or experienced by the average guy.

From unexplained superstition, to race craft,
to engineering arrogance, to common sense, there’s a bit of it all in this one.

Plus, to hear a works ‘66 BSA, a 500, weighed in at 205,
With a gallon of fuel in the tank, when a new 450 today can go almost 250lbs dry, is just crazy.

Jeff passed a few days ago, rest in peace guy.
