- Trey Canard is one of the nicest people I have ever met and of all of his amazing accomplishments during his career as a professional dirt bike racer, that might be the one thing that sticks out. Trey was one of the top dogs of the sport during my time in the US and I was track side for a lot of his career highs and lows. To finally get a chance to chat was a real treat.

Trey was so fast. Just a lot of bad luck happened to him. It's really good to hear from him and hear his insight, very cool.
His speed was very underrated, healthy trey (which was rare) could run a poto/James type speed
I like trey, but he would go down too much at that speed. He said he retired bc he couldn't be consistent at the speed he needed to go, to win.
Yeah, he was fast as hell when he was healthy and feeling it. It's just sad the injuries started to mount up. There's quite a few guys that are in that same boat, one minute they are doing amazing and the next they are out again with another injury and just can't shake them.
Always felt bad for Trey fans... He had the talent, but he just couldn't stay consistently on 2 wheels! His 450 W total is always so shocking to me! He should have a dozen SX and MX wins 🤷♂️
His rookie 450 year he beat Stew, RV, Dunge, and Reed in 450 mains. He’s one of the top “what would of happened had he not had those injuries”
Trey will not be forgotten. Such a great guy and he had some bad injuries and somehow he would bounce back from it. ❤ Trey!!
I was a HUGE Trey Canard fan for his whole career. His sense of humor always made me like him. I was introduced to him in "The Prospects" Moto DVD from like 2006 and was a fan ever since. When he won at Millville one year in the 250 class the whole podium celebration was off the chain.
Mini warriors 4 he had a whole goon segment with another guy. Was pretty funny even back then when they were kids.
Canard was like the only guy who could run js7 pace I think 2014? That battle they had at millville was insane .
One of my favorite riders. Just a class act as a human and rider.
Another huge talent. Life had other plans for him though… what a rider!
God had different plans for him
I am a total fan of Jett but at the same time I’ve ridden off-road for years and we’ve always stood up with a similar style as Jett !!! But he sure makes it look so easy!! Good on him and thanks trey for your input and your heart and determination as I’ve watched you over the years!!! And for being a good human as well
Treys insight is sick. Some good points covered 👌👌
Honda has a great team. Chase, Hunter and Jett are some pretty amazing riders and the you back that up with Trey’s input is just the winning sauce!! That's all due to have a fantastic Team manager!!!
Trey is a great rider He was always one of my favorite riders, it was sad to see Him retire but I understand why it was the right choice for Him. His understanding of the set up of the bike is amazing. I am sure that is why He is still testing bike even so many years after his Prime. He alway gave 110 % I appreciated his take on the difference in riding styles, He was right, we had that Hannah mentality, hammer it we let our feet fly. The Little Professor was not like that but so many riders were. I alway thought that the rear end needed to be stiffer and quicker and the front a bit softer but still quick so that the wheels were in better contact with the track, I use to go through tires every other race because it was the only way I could get the rear end to hook up. In the days before single shock systems we just didn't know about ride height or setting our sag. . I know it made a big difference on my bike, especially on hard pack tracks.
In my observation with Jett he almost rides like a snowmobiler carving powder in the mountains. Steers with the rear with the front just skimming.
I thought of a mountain bike. Same concept. But absolutely
Just like everts who taught him
I think Trey Canard's era of balls out, on the edge of out of control with feet flying off everywhere was a whole lot more fun to watch.
It was awesome but ultimately why that whole era of riders have torn knees.
Haiden Deegan is keeping that style alive! So much fun to watch him race.
Tomac been riding a high rear end and a soft front end for years, and using his feet the best. Trend setter in that department.
prayers for Trey and family continued success and happiness
I think that JMB was way ahead of his time . He paved the way for all foreign riders . I mean the riding style. Jett is as smooth as JMB with a blend of Herlings. Fast and smooth, while making it look effortless.
That was so revealing. I can't believe he was so candid. Talking about Chase and jet and their set ups. The stuff is usually top secret, very cool interview.
Yeah I was just thinking wow I wonder if honda and chase are guna be pissed he's talking so much
Awesome insight from a great rider
Great interview and insight. Trey is one of the greats!
Top dude in dirtbikes!
Best episode
Trey just seems like a cool genuine dude
Ride like Stefan Everts did in the 90s🙌
GREAT episode .. Trey is a legend!
I remember talking to my uncles who raced since the late 80s and did some higher level racing with guys like pastrana and different ones at the Loretta Lynn’s around the time this new style started coming around and we were watching roczen and tomac take corners without ever taking their feet off the pegs or even sitting into the turns and we couldn’t understand how these guys corner so easy without having to throw a lot body English into it and now seeing that it’s like the preferred style is so nuts they almost lean the bikes like a super bike but stay upright and just let the bike take itself around rather than whipping it around the turn or sliding it around like the older days
What a great interview! What a great person and rider!!
I imagine Villopoto started this, hes very underrated as an all time great.
No way…. Villo was a pit bull with a toy when it came to his bike!
Pure animal two stroke rider
Why do you think he’s underrated all people in this sport consider him all time
He was a pit bull but he also steered with his feet
Him and Jett are both fast but they don't ride the same way at all.
IMO - the footwork game started with Tomac.
Villopoto
Super interesting 🎉
They are riding like The Man Roger Decoster rode in the 70's Jett will break all records Trey was so unlucky he was a powerhouse who gave Stu a fright awesome race great rider
TC41 should come back and race WSX 🤘
Someone ask Chase23 what happens when you load that honda on the back end after vertical & horizontal load what happens when the power unloads?? He breaks his helmet visor tell the practice riders to fix that!!
Ronnie Mac!
TC good guy, interesting discussion
In Sx you do see a lot of chopper out bikes and I agree stiff and slow is dead
Rumor has it this guy is the legendary Ronnie Mac
Funny how Trey says the bike setup is changing in America to match a European setup with a more balanced bike. Jett reminds me of Stefan everts in every way he looks so like him on the bike choosing lines and pacing himself. I do wonder if his years in Europe riding for everts Suzuki team has influenced it
Lest we not pay homage to just how hard it is to keep that chassis from moving, as TC41 mentioned @5:05 about the TROPHY TRUCK and how fast the wheels work up & down, COPY THAT, but the ONLY WAY that happens on a 2 wheeler is through the CORE & LEGS ""TELLING"" the bike that it WILL NOT MOVE & FORCING THE SUSPENSION TO WORK, all the while, the bike looks like it is on a street ride, smooth & flat. Another bonus is when you FORCE the chassis to stay under your control, the opposite reaction is those same wheels BITING BACK into the soil that much harder, hence more control and lots of trips to the WINNERS CIRCLE 4EVR!!!
The kids core is thick,look at his neck. Crazy strong 💪
Easy answer the 2 races that Chase gave up put him having to get back in his own race pace where Jett hasn't had to take any time off, ppl don't understand that if you miss ANY time your giving your opponents an edge but I see Chase beating him before season is up!
It's so hard not to like the guy
I think you would stand more with stiffer suspension, witch is a good thing in most race situations!!? I guess it will keep you but off the set!?
Yeah, Trey was as good as the best, just had a bit of the injury bug. Amazing young man though.
So is he Ronnie Mac? kinda feel like he is.
No it's Jimmy Albertson. This has been known.
Treys "Goon" rides are epic. Jett beating Sexton?. Has a Hannah and Glover vibe. Ask Honda.😊
Watching Trey snap his femur again after the scrub at Washougal cemented him as having the worst luck imo
Trey is amazing, Some will say what blessings were there when you get landed on and more, besides the wins and fast races.
He sees the blessings from God in his life, through it all.
Change the fork angle instead of lowering the back. Make the fork more slack by one degree and see the difference.
With all of the technology that's been around for the last 15 or so years, I would think that they would have a better understanding of how a new bike is going to perform.
Surely they have collected enough data to know what will and will not work. There is enough computing power in a top-end pc to completely simulate how the bike will react
to different settings and different terrain.
Wayy to many variables
@@scottchelmford7136 Between finite element analysis software and computational fluid dynamics software you can simulate just about anything.
Does not account for the biggest variable of all, _the rider_ . And sag is 10% of "the setup".
Ikr 8:20 And then Shane mcelrath shows up on a stocker…
I think most of Chase’s trouble is how tall he is & how muscular his upper body is. That’s a lot of leveraged weight turning what would be a small mistake for a smaller rider into a crash for Chase.
Chase stated in an interview his style hasn't accommodated his height yet. When he was shorter IE Younger he rode with a lot of weight forward. He is having troubles correcting the habits he had from when he was younger and shorter.
Nice observation!
At this point in the motocross progression I think you’re going to see a lot of this. Lap times are so close and technique has shot through the roof, that height and body weight are going to be more of a factor then ever. Kind of like jockeys.
@xafbxmoto269 yeah. All the fastest guys are small framed. Strong, no doubt, but small. If you look at Jett walk, you realize how tiny his waist is also
Trey’s such a great rider and decent guy
If Deagan can learn to ride like the Lawrence brothers instead of smashing everything he will be untouchable.
Bet you feel stupid now...haha. 1st and 1st.
Needs a little more jet but only to be like tomac lol
@@Devil3Rwhy would he feel stupid thats a pretty accurate statement but it won’t happen till the Lawrence’s retire
Good point. It does make good shit tho..kid is on a mission.@@louisfarone
He'll never ride like the Lawrence brothers. His style is totally different. It's more old school, not meticulous like Jett's aka European style. He reminds me of how James used to ride in the early 2000's. He rides on the ragged edge every race.
Brother had such skill. Yet such bad luck. Landed on twice? 😢 second time I was like not again! Nnnnnoooooo!
Back to the future @___________/
Incorporate some videos man. Good material it’s always just so dry and talk talk talk with no visual representation. I can only imagine you guys have access to wicked awesome vid content that’s not already all over the net from last weekends race.
Everts and Bayle were doing this yrs back.. Smets would have very fast rear rebound on his shock, so the bike was always driving.. Nothing new here....
Find a human better the Trey Canard and i'll kiss your rear end. What a top notch character
RCs feet were everywhere because he’s 5”6 lol
You're being generous lol.
Lol same
What do they differently..well for starters jett wins
Dope click bate mate
Dude, Chase just needs to get off that bike. This is the first time in awhile I've heard someone aknoledge the hondas tucking the front... Even though they have been known for jack knifing for as long as I can remember (tbh not that long started riding in 2014). And Chase has stated numerous times he likes to rely on the front end. Of course you pust someone who uses the front end on a bike that likes to tuck the front hes going to have a lot of mistakes... Then people slam him online and in the media as he takes it in stried. Not saying he doesnt have some mental weakness or poor/sloppy riding mistakes in there as well. I guess we will find out soon when he goes to a new team.
He's going to KTM according to everyone in the media.
So I've heard. I guess we will see if it's a good fit for him. I would've thought Yamaha would've tried to snatch him up... Guess it'll be tomac and Webb from the rumors though, with Ferandis in limbo.
Trey is one of the smartest and most intelligent racers ever. And a true Christian makes ALL the difference in the world. Because he follows JESUS. AMEN!!!!!!!!!
Because Sexton keeps falling down and Jett doesnt. Simple
First
Doesn’t get enough comments to matter….
