Congratulations to Russ Truex of Huntington Beach for winning Bike of the Month with his 1975 Yamaha RD125B.
Russ won a plaque provided by Russ Brown Motorcycle Attorneys.
Russ has owned this 100% original RD for 17 years. It's all original aside from the tires and NOS mufflers that he changed on it.
He owns thirteen motorcycles, seven Yamaha RD's and one Honda. He has been coming to the meet for years and has placed with this bike in the past.
