Seven historic figures took their places among motorcycling’s greatest legends at the 2012 AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.
The Hall of Fame Class of 2012: the late Rod Bush, KTM North America president and industry visionary; Rhodesian World Championship roadracing tuner Nobby Clark; the off-road phenom and racing champion Ty Davis; 1975 AMA Supercross Champion Jimmy Ellis; pioneering female motocross racer Sue Fish; World-Class bike restorer, London born *Brian Slark; and the late iconic race starter "Airborne Al" Wilcox.
*Brian Stark was a moving force in the creation of a vibrant motocross-racing community in the United States in the 1960's. Brian helped organize motocross tracks, promoting the sport by teaching famous people-including then-teen heartthrob Bobby Darin-to ride motorcycles and importing and building Rickman Metisse and Cheney motocross bikes.
Slark also helped create the World-Class Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Leeds, Alabama.
