Honda's 1991 "Baja 1000" XR 680RN Prototype

An amazing 130 MPH Honda works bike designed for the Baja 1000 found in a 1992 copy of Dirt Rider magazine. I'd love to build a replica - The hybrid street fairing looks wildly original !

The last 2 pics are from the Honda website I found later :

Vintage: The Fastest Stock Dirtbike Ever Built 123.75 miles per hour on a 1981 KTM 495

" If looks determined usage, the KTM495 would go around with a machine gun mounted on the bars. Tippy toes time. Sling a leg over the 495. Or, at least, try to. With an incredible 38.7-inch saddle height, the KTM has the distinction of being the tallest bike we've ever tested. Riders in the five-foot nine-inch range will need a milk crate. Once on the bike, the suspension settles a bit, making the ground barely in reach for a five-foot eleven-inch rider. You won't find any sag in the saddle. In fact, it appears to be made of plywood. That sucker is hard! It's also slippery. Sort of feels like someone put some Armor-All on it at the factory. On the plus side, the foam never sags and the saddle retains its shape. Long time KTM riders say they like the firm feel. Long-time KTM riders have also been known to howl at the moon on occasion".
From an article written by good old Mr Rick himself in 2008 about the Husky.

1993 Yamaha YZF 750SP

 The early nineties bought about many great changes in both off and on road bikes such as aluminium frames, valve configurations, radical changes in suspension and best of all crazy bright factory colours. The Yamaha YZF was an improvement over the FZR of the 80's (a great bike in it's own right) and bought the styling and handling up to Kawa Ninja standards.

tricked out FZR from a few years earlier ... still damn fine.
