Man watchin old bubba back in his 125 days always reminds me just how badass he is. He certainly raised the bar back then & even now.

stewart, this guy is amazing

Genius pieces of machinery, 2-strokes are.

if the AMA brought them back, im sure the companies will start making them again. theres alot of people out there that would love to race 2 strokes in the AMA

I've always been amazed at what the top guys could do on a 125. My weakass 125 wouldn't jump half what they did (well maybe with a top guy riding it). Regardless I always loved this class and wish it would be come back although it's pretty much a 125 pitbike now.

the point of watching motocross , is that is a great sport and even if james stewart arrives first all the time it s nice to see who could beat him , if you don t like motocros don t watch it, now one is forcing you

i just started riding motocross, so maybe i dont know shit, but if one were to think of 'perfect form' this is what comes to my mind, his cornering technique alone is flawless. windham is pretty good too but he was pro when bub was learning fractions..

@j4m35ac is a mixture of getting the right rider on a good bike(they are all pretty much the same when it comes to performance in the pro class) and having the right team manager/trainer teaching them how to improve. its mostly rider when it comes down to it.

Damn i miss the sounds of 2 strokes at races :(

Look at that 2-stroke out front!

1:50 Crispity Crunchy Bubba Stewart Hole Finger Holeshot!

Maybe, but for these pros, ama pros, they are racing for their lives. They have to bring the dough. And in reality, a 2 stroke just cant compete with a 4 stroke anymore. Fun or not. Until you realize that these guys really do need "the best" to win, you will never get it.

@iuliuspeverini everything haha. suspension, motor, chassis, exhaust, tires...everything

All the hype of Jett Lawrence doesn’t even come remotely close to wot bubba did in his first debut year ,, I miss seeing JS7 line up on a weekend.

jus follow the supercross championship seasons, they on tv. speed chanel n some local chanels sometimes

1:46 butterfinger hole-shot ftw lol

those were the days...

How could something that costs more, makes less power, is heavier, has more moving parts, and requires more maintenance be more advanced? 2 strokes for life!

two strokes are the best!!!!

gosh that dude is fast!

@iuliuspeverini umm put a pro circuit works pipe on it to give you more top end get a tire that has lots of space between the lugs to give you better traciton for the back put a mx51 on the front over sized front brake rotor and play with the suspension to set it up for where you like it on set it more for the bigger jumps you hit so it wont hurt as much if you case/over shoot a jump

hell yeah

dam gota miss the two stroke days

it´s a Dream ..!!

bubba is the king

VIVA LA 2-STROKE!!!!!!

hahaha i heard that also. hole finger hole shot. probably thinking bout 'another racin' that night.

I want to see Jame's race a 125 aginst the 450 class. See how he dose.

He lapped villopoto at the end of the video!

"Bubba will be the best supercross rider ever"....7 years later, he's still only 1/2 way to Jeremy's record :) Keep working, but I doubt he get's there

Nice that's the bike I have 04 kx125 yeah

@MetricHotrodsdotcom yeah. he is the reason i ride :) i have A.D.D and A.D.H.D. i plan to race this year. wish me luck lol

anyone else notice how the top riders where the last to switch to 4-stroke? kinda funny :-P

He is riding two in this video but he is on four right now.

@ccoady750 They never changed the rules. It's always been like that since a 4 stroke first won the championship, that was 5 months ago, i'm not starting another rage war with someone who doesn't know what he's talking about.

they should start putting helmet cams on riders for the supercross going on now

they do

Did he just refer to bubba as "crispity crunchity"...? Lol

haha thats all u can come up with. that sounds like something my 10 year old little brother would say

@elleboz he said butter finger hole shot

@bradthornton123 if ur used to 2 strokes, stay with 2 strokes. youl hate a 4 stroke if ur used to 2 strokes. my friend has a kx 250f and i used to love it but now since i have a 2 stroke i hate his

do u think the japanese companies are gonna start making 125 4-stroke mx bikes? that would be different

the way superx should be

ya but whats going to win, 250 2 stoke or 450 4 stoke?

butterfinger holeshot...ha they didnt think that one through

You could have put Bubba on that broken down POS 2000 Cannondale bike and he still would have smoked the field.

hey i wanna upgrade my yz 125 for racing. what do those guys upgrade for racing?

well give you a cookie

That's a pretty big difference on an MX track..

idk pastrana was 16 on a 125 and stewart was older so he probably had more experience

ive got a 144 KTM and im wonderin if i should get a 250F but i dont no if i would get along with a four stroke! if anyone has rode a 2 stroke and gone up to 4 please can you tell me what you think!

i think they kinda maybe sold out to butter finger with the whole holeshot thing...

James Stewart. is fucking nice :)

who do u think was faster on a 125, pastrana or stewart?

im 195 lbs. would i fit a 125 2stroke, i can ride. so i think a 125 is small, either that or 250 2 stroke

ha ha ''hole finger shot'' lol

i was there

6 people are forest rangers

butterfinger holeshot just sounds dirty

why cant he be like this now !

Make sure you get some practice time on a mx track before you sign up to race, trust me, this sport is not as easy as it looks.

if that is true, how come no one is running two strokes in ama pro raceing. is it just a cawincedence?

@spo123328 I think they make most of their money on parts sales. Just look how much a pipe is for a 2 stroke then compare it to the 4 stroke. The 2 stroke is twice the size buy over half the price. Also the fact that the (4 stroke) bikes are so expensive to rebuild, that the serious riders will buy a new bike instead of fixing their blown up thumper. More an more 4 stroke riders are forced to quit racing because of the cost. I'll stick with amateur racing on a 250 two stroke.

one question if RC is better how come stewart can beet him? just because yhes been around more and he has a couple more trophys doesent mean hes better. and he got the trophys when stewart was in lites.

@ccoady750 See, here's where you're wrong. I've got proof I race, it's called results. The fact that I play MX games just proves I love doing stuff about motocross. As for the 2 stroke being more powerful as a 4 stroke? It all depends on what you're talking about, you can't just throw out there "2 strokes are more powerful than 4 strokes" because you could be talking about a 65 vs a 450. I'll agree that a 250 2 is faster than a 250 4, simply because i've ridden them both.

why do they turn theyre wheel while there in the air. i dont race mx just asking

im 15 and 5 ft and i ride a ktm exc 200

@reed22racer Youre nuts. They can easily compete, it's just that the AMA CHANGED the rules giving the 4 strokes a HUGE displacement advantage. I mean seriously, 125cc 2 stroke vs. 250cc 4 strokes and you (AMA) think that's fair? 250cc 2 stroke blows away 250 4 stroke.

they were still saying crispity crunchity in 2004? Sheesh..

suzuki rm 125 , when i go bigger ofc ktm 250 or 350.

at a dirtbike track :)

I miss 2 strokes

@elleboz ahahha i heard that

yea i agree, i think carmicheal is better too

they do what??

i was there and everytime stewart passed my section of seats these racist ppl would Boo him and yell u suck just because hes black. he is a great rider and it is pathetic that ppl are like that

Not Villopoto....some lapper.

if they put as much money slash time into 2 smokes as they did 4 strokes everybody or at least more people would ride 2 strokes. james could ride a 50 and kick these guys asses.

holefinger holeshot

"i can ride" If you could ride you would know what size bike fits you. 125 = to slow go for a 250. Also a used 125 will most likely have problems becuz usually young kids own them and they do not know how to treat their bikes. 125 Also needs rebuilt allot more often then a 250 (specially if you race) I ride a RM 250 and I like it much better then a RMZ 450. But there are those who are brainwashed and think 450s are better.. they're wrong but its a personal choice.

james stewat hole finger

@elleboz hahahaha

@reed22racer 5 months ago? Now really, who doesn't know wht they're talking about?

i think Kawasaki and Ktm are best motocross bikes

no its 18

so ur saying that 4 strokes arent advanced. umm hot tip 4 strokes are quiker then 2 strokes. my 250 r smashes a 125 an my bro has a ktm 250 sx factory race bike an the 450r is qwiker then that. 2 strokes are fun but harder to ride an outdated.

w 2 stokes

no its 16

no it is the truth if you like carmicheal good for you but you cant say hes better then bubba

What happen HHS doesn't ride like this anymore

@ccoady750 As for knowing more about engines than my dad? He was a tech for 15 years on top of being the mechanic for his bike since he was 11... he's 55 now, so you're saying someone who's been doing it for 44 years, longer than you've been alive on this planet, doesn't know more about it than you? You've got some problems, major problems if you think so. Anyways, I don't have to prove anything to you, but i'll gladly give you my FB to show you I do race, A fuckin hell of a lot faster than you

Not Villopoto.

stewart was wayyy faster then pastrana on a 125 no dout

lol

lol true it sucks now a days

pastrana's A.D.D. was his downfall. the guy could not concentrate long enough to finish a moto. his mind would drift, and he would be taking a dirtnap. easily the most physically talented rider of all time,but the A.D.D. killed his racing career.

TSFL

if u can rip and ride an 85 2 stroke ok you'll be fine on a 125

WRONG!!! the reason that supercross and motocross switched to 4 strokes is because FIM and enviromentalist threw a fit that 2 strokes make to much polluiton and theyre right. 4 STROKES ALLTHE WAY!!!!

i hate all your 2 stroke haters you have no idea what your talking about, the only reason most people are going to 4 strokes is because there easier to ride and a 250 4 stroke vs a 250 4 stroke whos gonna win thats right the two stroke
