Every time I think of light racers on powerful bikes Larry Roeseler comes to mind.

From 1988 through 1996 the KX500 won the Baja 1000.  Team Green member Larry Roeseler road the KX500 for six of those years. He was about 5?9? and 150 lbs. and he could throw the bike around like it was nothing. I would see him on the KX500 all the time when I was racing as a kid. He was one of Danny Hamel?s teammates for while.
