Moto-Journalists’ Perks (1997)

• Larry Lawrence
Cycle News editor Kit Palmer gives a 1998 Yamaha YZ250 a workout during testing. (I’ve been told that this might be test rider Don Burke.) One of the perks of being a moto-journalist is that you often get to ride next year’s model well ahead of when the bike is released to the general public. In this case Kit was testing a ’98 model sometime in September of ’97. (Cycle News photo)
