I just tried, including our hometown to narrow it down. The name is too common. No hits. Oh well. In NM at the time you could get a "scooter license" at age 13. Was supposed to be 5 hp or less. No one ever checked that. I eventually had a Suzuki 150 - 2 stroke twin, 16 hp, pretty fast for a kid's bike. The kid in question had a Yamaha 250 dirt bike (more road bike than today's dirt bikes), by far the fastest bike in our Jr. High scene where Honda 90 was a big deal.

I rode on the back of his bike once before I got mine. We went through some rough terrain, vacant lots, etc. and the kid was an adept rider - about scared the crap out of me - but he took a lot of risks. A wonder he didn't kill himself.
