Our April Fool's issue didn't fool anyone... We did, however, test
the 1974 Suzuki TM400. We were rather kind and tried to highlight
some of its positives rather than all its negatives, saying it's "fast,
inexpensive but not quite like DeCoster's."... We also tested the
new Husqvarna 400 CR. We said that if you want to ride like Heikki
Mikkola or Brad Lackey, you need one of these first... We had
coverage of the Great Bear Grand Prix from Riverside International
Raceway and the Cal Rayborn Memorial Half-Mile from Chula
Vista, California.
