  • The List: The 1973 Dirt Bike Market

No garage is complete without a full complement of Maxima aerosol products, each of which has been thoughtfully designed with a very specific purpose. Knocking out corrosion? Grab a can of our Multi-Purpose Penetrant Lube. Guarding your engine against dirt? Go to town with our Fab-1 Spray-On Air Filter Oil. Need to restore and protect your plastics? Reach for Maxima’s famous SC1 high-gloss coating, which has been appropriately referred to as “New Bike in a Can™” due to its almost-magical ability to recondition your machine. Across the board, Maxima is proud to offer the top aerosol products in every category—and trust us, your bike will thank you.

On a recent trip to visit the legendary Dirt Bike magazine editor Rick "Super Hunky" Sieman handed over some old boxes of magazines and catalogs that he thought we might like having here at the Racer X offices. Inside one box we find a rare gem: the souvenir program for the 1973 International Six Days Trial, held in and around Dalton, Massachusetts. This was the first time the event had ever been held in the United States, and the book itself is like looking at a time capsule for the off-road industry as it was just gaining traction in the wake of the film On Any Sunday. This was just before the Japanese OEMs went all-in on the US motorcycling market, and the bikes available to new enthusiasts came from all over the world. So for this week's List, we thought we would share the various advertisements from the motorcycle makers that existed in September 1973.
