We are winding down for Christmas, so over the break we will be running plenty of videos to keep you guys entertained.
We ran a story back in July about Kenny Roberts returning to the Indy Mile, a venue where he recorded one of his most memorable wins on a Yamaha TZ 750 back in 1975.
Here is the official Yamaha “behind the scenes” video which includes footage of an impressed Valentino Rossi and Colin Edwards who were both in attendance at the event.
You can see footage of the original race here

First reports from this event said Kenny was hookin’ and they weren’t kidding. Not bad for a 57-year-old who hadn’t been on a bike in a year. And he said he wanted to go faster!
