1979 Powerlite JR

This was my older brother's race bike. Then it became my first race bike. It has been ours since 79. It has many wins under it's belt. Not as many when it was mine.  Sold on 2/3/13. Goodbye old friend.

1979 Powerlite JR. It has mid to late 80's JR decals on it because when I started racing my dad wanted to freshen it up.
