1969 Kawasaki Sidewinder Motorcycle – Groundhog

At home in the dirt. 238cc’s of real machine. Not just a looks-like-a-scrambler. This one is. We call it the Sidewinder. It sits high off the ground. Clears the brush and rough stuff.

1969 Daytona Motorcycle Racing Article & Photos

Photo Captions:

They don’t get any closer than this. Rod Gould gets ready to pass national number one Gary Nixon on the outside. Soon after this Nixon’s Yamaha loosened some head bolts and had to make an emergency pit stop.

Here’s one of the entrants working off some of the tension of pre-race waiting. Dont laugh, those unicycles are one of the best methods for perfecting balance and coordination.

Rayborn and Pierce diced back and forth for many laps until Cal’s Kawasaki gave him temporary shifting problems. Rayborn and Pierce were running second and third here.

Four of the best, dicing it out, with Ron Gould leading Mike Duff, Cal Rayborn and Gary Nixon close behind. These pros mixed it up like this for most of the race.

1969 Racing Rubber – Motorcycle Tires History Article

Photo captions:

Motorcycle Tires have come a long way since the days of this 1914 Harley-Davidson now on display at the Western Reserve Auto-Aviation Museum in Cleveland. The new Sports Stud tire, for off-road competition, is nearly dwarfed by the vintage street tire.

Goodyear started racing on the right track – its original motorcycle Blue Streak tire was the first ever made specially for racing. A crew at Fourth of July (1914) cycle races in Dodge City, Kan., proudly displays the grand daddy American racing tires and the blue streak, incidentally, was in the middle of the tread.

Occasionally we receive an interesting paper from one of the branch industries of the motorcycle business. The tire and rubber industry has become increasingly harmonious with present day motorcycle activity. The epilogue of the motorcycle tire’s history has been virtually absent from the general body of motorcyclists. The past decades of motorcycle evolution and its subsidiary, racing, have been instrumental in design and tire development. Motorcycle racing has been the main testing ground to provide the propellant that has lead to the design of moderm motorcycle tires.

This article, the history of racing tires, is a study of past environment that has lead to the design of today’s modern motorcycle tire.

1969 How About a Reed Valve – Vintage 4-Page Motorcycle How-To Photo Article

What it does is pose a barrier in the intake passage so that no mixture can go back through it. This guarantees that all of the mixture stays in the engine where it can be used. The installation of the valve is only half of the battle because at this point you would have the engine double valved…
