For vintage restoration guy and collector Dave Larsen, the lure of the 72 ATX 500 was just too much… again. When Dave found this one all alone in a wharehouse and looking for a new home, he just couldn’t resist. I think this is the 3rd one for Dave, and he’s really excited about driving this one this winter.
I like the ATX 500’s so much that I had to get another one as well… my best memories of vintage riding over the last six or so years have been on an ATX 500 or 335. They just start so nice, sound so cool and run so well. Plus them big “bug-eye’ headlights really get attention on the trail.
