Looks like it's from the USGP at Unadilla and judging from the green backgrounds I would guess it's a 250 with a 500 tank/shroud on it to handle the then longer (45min + 2 lap) motos. Probably late 80's with an American rider since the Euros definitely didn't have that form back then.

The backgrounds look black to me. And where are the fork guards?

+1. 1989 Honda CR250R - the first year with USD forks and the shroud shape looks right. FIM-sanctioned GP - green plates. US rider on US team - Fly Racing decals. Unadilla - certainly the terrain fits.

Rick Ryan is the rider. The bike has WP front and rear suspension. Does anyone else have any pictures or info on this ?
