Jeff Price. AKA Price Racing back in the 90's. Lives here in Vegas. Lives a mile in the desert from my uncles house. Right near TJ Lavins crib. A buddy of mine has known him 20 years. And has a few of those Price Racing seat covers in his garage. He supposedly has one KX500 left for himself thats at Pro Circuit being built. Was a desert racing team.
Danny Hamel was known by anyone and everyone who was a desert racer in the 90's. He was on the factory Kaw team when he died though.
ToomanyKaws:
Price Racing team bikes started out as Team Green bikes, new. They had the frame guards welded on, extra gusseting. Ran IMS tanks. Reinforced stock radiators with the top plug welded shut. He didn't have any 500's that old. Was on KTMs and another brand back in that era. 98 and newer was when Price had KX's. They used to sell a Price racing seat cover and decal package though. Appears this bike has some of that package.

What pipe is on that bike?
FPMXer:
Right now it's a pro-circus system. I'm gonna put the Gnarly on when I go through it.
FPMXer:
So I tore it down yesterday to go through her before first flight! The dunlap that was on the rear is history and now has a much larger entrenching tool installed a MotoZ that's 140/80/18. :-D I also found the right side axle block to be cracked almost the whole way through. I already scored another swing arm off fleabay for $16. So I'm waiting on the swingarm and still the carb holder to the motor which should be here today. I took the force fed tank off and will put it on the market. It only needs a petcock and the upper mounts installed as I needed them for the desert tank.
