About the Book

First published in 1978 as the "Moto-X Fox Guide to Preparing the Suzuki RM and PE for Competition", this 72-page book was written and photographed by famed 1970's Cycle News editor, racer and motocross journalist Jim "Jimmy the Greek" Gianatsis. Team Moto-XFox was the leading privateer team in AMA National Motocross at the time using Suzuki RM bikes, and was the industry leader in developing engine performance and long travel adjustable, no-fade suspension. Team rider Pat Richter placed as high as 2nd at the Hangtown National, and many Fox riders like mark Barnett and Steve Wise going on to become factory riders and garner National Championship titles. This book covers development and evolution of the Suzuki factory RA, RH and RN works bikes and RM production motocrossers from 1967 through 1981. Engine performance and suspension setup tuning guidance by team mechanics Keith Bontranger, Chuck Tannlund, Cliff White and Keith McCarty. Exciting action race photography of riders Mark Barnett, Danny LaPorte, Kent Howerton, Tony DiStefano, Daryl Schultz, Brad Lackey and Roger DeCoster.
About the Author: Jim "The Greek" Gianatsis served as an editor and contributor to Cycle News and many motorcycle magazines throughout the 1970's covering all the major AMA Outdoor National Motocross, Supercross and Trans-AM races. Jim was a professional motocross racer himself holding the AMA #100 plate which was later passed on to his good friend, legendary motocrosser Bob Hannah. Because of his riding and evaluation skills, Jim was the only motojournalist allowed to test and evaluate the exotic factory prototype motocross bikes of the '70s era. Jim also worked at Husqvarna motorcycles and Moto-X Fox where he handled marketing, product design and development. Jim worked closely and was good friends with all the top National and International factory riders of the time.
