In 1993, Barry Hawk clinched his initial victory in the XC1 ATV category, marking the beginning of a remarkable streak with seven consecutive titles. His last triumph on the ATV occurred in 1999, during which he diligently honed his skills on motorcycles.

As Barry Hawk silently evolved into a threat in XC2 bikes, Yamaha recognized his potential and engaged him for a groundbreaking venture—an innovative 4-stroke 400cc motorcycle.

Amidst the exodus of factories from the ATV industry in the early '90s, independent companies carried the mantle, with Barry securing a factory ride on a league-built 250R.

In 2001, Barry's rivals, astounded by his speed, suspected foul play, prompting Yamaha and team boss Randy Hawkins to undertake the ultimate pursuit to challenge the quad prodigy.

2003 marked a historic achievement as Barry Hawk not only secured seven ATV titles (1993-1999) but also clinched the XC1 Motorcycle title, an unprecedented feat from 2003 with unmatched success in XC1 races from 2005-2008.
