What are the 10 Best Vintage Dirt Bikes?

[Dirt_Mover]

In my opinion, one of the best Vintage Dirt Bikes has to be the 1974 Husqvarna Mag 250! These bikes, and their parts, are still bringing BIG $$$$ on Ebay!

So, what's your pick for top 10 best vintage dirt bikes?

I don't have any input here, but I am interested in what all the experts say.

[OLDMXRACER 393]

I can't really chime in because I didn't get to ride that many "classics". How bout the first year 125 Elsinore? I was going to the races to watch when it came out and EVERYBODY was on them.

[Big Maico 393]

With out a doubt the 1981 490 Maico is #1.

As for number 2, I would think it would be the CZ Falta.

Number 3 would be a 76 bultaco 370 Persang.

Number 4 would be the 1974 Honda Cr 250.

Number 5 would be the 1975 YZ Monoshock.

yamaha 1974 thru 1984. What did ya expect from me,lol

[Florida 393]

Based only on what I have owned:
1. 1976 Suzuki RM 370A (Evo)
2. 1977 Suzuki RM 125B (Evo)
3. 1978 1/2 Suzuki RM 250C2 (Evo)
4. 1971 Maico 400, square barrel, modded suspension to GP stardards. (both Evo and vintage depending on the date)
5. 1972 Suzuki TS 185, HS setup
6. 1973 OSSA Stilletto 250 MX

I loved the RM 370A and some low life stole it, never got it back. First one into Northwest Florida.
