1981 AMA Superbike pics
27 Oct 2009 19:31
Saw these on a wall at a truck stop in VA so I snapped a couple pics. Thought it was pretty interestering to seeing the payout for the points fund back in 81. Any idea how much the payout is now?

So, Richard Chambers must be connected somehow to the truckstop? That is a great bit of motorcycle memorabilia!
