Join 999lazer as they re-unite Dave Thorpe with his long lost 1986 500cc Motocross World Championship-winning Honda RC500 - and it's in a pristine condition. The new owners took the factory big-bore down to the Thorpe workshop so he could verify the legitimacy of what has just become the most expensive dirt bike in the world.

Max and Dave reminisce on his time riding one of the most famous two-strokes in MX history and Mr VMXdN - Dave King - is also on hand to give us a tour around the bike. And there might just be another surprise or two in store as well...

Enjoy guys, this was a very special video!
