I remember him.. RIP. And Thank You for your contributions to the sport.. Mike, keep it WFO up there!

FROM all the Italian bike lovers out there WE love and will always remember Mr. Healey.

Crazy. I remember each one of those magazine pictures.

Sad news indeed, raced with Mike in the early 80's. Feeling old

Perfect video! This man impressed me in the late 90s so much. Mike came to our local series in Utah. U.S.R.A events in this time. There was a series of rollers on a mid section of the Ogden OCA track. I’ve been here a few seasons at this point and always wondered if it was possible to connect these rollers into doubles of three. The momentum you would have to carry through the 90 degree corner before would be hard. Mike decided during an overkill of lead to second place decided to attempt my dream line. He came to the straight before the corner looked at the fence line crowd and held up two fingers. He then double doubled the first two on this lap. Next lap 3 fingers. And a beautiful execution. This was now his new line for this section. My friend Bryan then hired him to train him at Paris raceway in Cali. He is a dope person, and taught my friend Bryan that riding hard for local shops and displaying their stickers beats all stickers you can purchase. My friends CR now lost the factory pilot look of team Honda and he was seriously improving. Love from a fan Mike, thanks for just being a rider with heart.❤️

Wow I met him in 1992 italian gp in mantova. i still have a t shirt signed by him Sad news

Met him at the Golden State Nationals around 1990. Seemed like a nice guy and was a sort of hero riding Euro bikes at the time. The tv guys really liked him because he wasn't typical and made a good story.

I tried to race Mike at Day in the Dirt, either 2001 or 2002.. he was already in his mid 30’s but was still the fastest guy on the track.

I am one of the few Japanese Mike Healy fans. RIP MH... What a shame.

I might have remembered wrong but several decades ago the announcer asked Mike the difference between the open class bikes versus regular and he said: "On a 125 its like 'how fast can i get this thing going' and on an open class its 'how fast do I want to go'. RIP Mike.

Mike trimmed my beard in 2017.

Prayers to his family and may you rest with the good Lord Jesus .Amen

RIP MIKE 🇺🇸🤘🏻☘️⚡️⚡️

Truky sad i knew him as a kid. In costa mesa . Me and a another bro scott todeNMX bikes plus at saddleback park. I didn't get to race like mike i tude more desert.XR-75 in 1976

I raced Mike a couple of times in Atlanta. He definitely was fast. He also was one of the first riders besides myself to use the lowering device for the start of the races. 1:00 dirt rider magazine did a half a page article on this in January 95. There is a picture of him on the bike with the device. I took it to Yamaha after that thinking no one could steal my idea but sure enough Chad Reed had it on his bike a few month later thanks Mr. Mike Healy rest in peace, bud

Rip

Bummer, one of the great ones RIP

I started my racing days on a bike he rode as an amateur that had found its way to arkansas Oklahoma area in the mid 90s. It was an 84 rm 80 and always thought it was cool it was a bad boy professionals bike. Hate to hear this news. Too young

Bei tempi con questo pazzo scatenato

Me n my dad would rip on him because of the rock star image (tats, ear piercing, bandana) but he was doing it 25 years before everyone jumped on that look. A true OG champion. Race in paradise.
