Thanks to Raycon for sponsoring this episode.Go to buyraycon.com/donut for 15% off your order! Brought to you by Raycon.
We look at the motocross in the context of the extreme sports phenomenon of the late 90s, and how it influenced pop culture. I will make the case that motocross was the most culturally relevant motorsport since 60s NASCAR, and celebrate figures like Travis Pastrana, Ricky Carmichael, and the McGrath v. Stewart rivalry.
Motocross was the coolest thing ever to young Nolan, even if he wouldn't ride a motorcycle until 20 years after the fact. All of my friends loved it and wore MX branded clothing, I think it definitely contributed to me getting into cars.

FMX/MX all encompassing, as well as skating, listening to Nu Metal, rockin my Fox gear for Halloween because I could, endless hours of playing Freekstyle with my siblings, and being stoked whenever it was time for the X-Games. Never did get a proper dirtbike, but my dad and I rode our Kawasaki quads through the Coachella valley whenever we could. Those were the days, hella nostalgia.

Those were and are my all-time games no doubt. Midnight being #1, MX being #2. And I knew from experience that any game that is there to be played will get broken or damaged at somepoint, so I secretly bought them and kept them safe to this day. They are my prized possessions, and I don't see that changing.

Got to see Ricky Carmichael race in his last supercross season at Atlanta. Also got to see him race at the Supercross of Nations at Buds Creek back in 2007. Sadly I think he came down with the flu and wasn't on his best game, but he still dominated, but didn't dominate as much as Ryan Villopoto did. RV stunk it up. Got the holeshot both times in his two motos and won both by over a minute I think, including one of which where he fell down. Oh, and he did it on a 250. He won by over a minute on a 250 even in the mixed moto that had the 250s and 450s. That was magical to watch live.

The downfall of motocross is when they took away the two strokes... has nothing to do with emissions it's about part sales, the manufacturers make more money on four strokes over all. Back in the mid 80s everybody had a brand new bike, the average racer could get two seasons out of one with minimal maintenance. chain sprocket, top end kit, tires, clutch plates.. the more serious racer got a new one every year for the next 8 or 10 years as it went, or could actually afford to have two bikes.. a practice bike and race machine... I remember buying a brand new KX 125 in 1984 for $1,795 glory days are over.......R.I.P Marty Smith

While it's true that the early four strokes we're garbage and might have lead to many people quitting the sport, the current ones are actually (usually) really reliable and relatively inexpensive to maintain. I had a 2013 Kawasaki kx450f for like 4-5 years and rode it up to 120 hours until I did a top end rebuild, (basically the piston,rings, cam chain and gaskets) which cost me about 400-500€. Compare that to changing a piston, rings, bearing and gaskets on a 125cc every 20-30 hours for about 100-150€ and the costs aren't that different anymore. According to this calculator: www.officialdata.org/us/inflation/1984?amount=1795 the inflation adjusted value of 1795$ would be about 4500$, which admittedly is much less than the 8000-9000$ new bikes cost nowadays. But then again the tech, like suspension and EFI have *slightly* improved the way the bikes perform as well. Not to mention the fact that four strokes are stupidly easy to ride fast. A bit slower in tight corners, but coming out they just pull. The biggest thing here in Finland that is making people quit are the insurance prices. When I started riding in 2004, insurance for a motocross bike was about 80-120€/year, but due to some legislative changes where mx bikes can now be handled as their own group instead of pooling them together with all vehicles in the country, the prices have risen to about 1500-6000€ per year.

Agreed... at the introduction of the four-stroke they were really pretty Junkie and unreliable... they have definitely come a long way and has made for some exciting racing at the top level... That still doesn't change the fact that the local turnouts are very small and not nearly as exciting as the 2-stroke day's... on my previous comment, I wasn't saying that the sport was totally dead I guess just different in a lot of ways still pretty alive in so many aspects... I'm personally just glad to see that Yamaha, KTM and some others still make great 2 Strokes... lastly, I'm currently looking into getting a yz450f to convert to Supermoto... Have fun stay safe.

@@TeKaMOTO Remember 2 strokes haven't been improved in years, so they'd definitely be better than modern 4 strokes.
