McGrath is the 👑 king he gave my brother his jersey off his back at Pontiac supercross in 97-98 my brother was dying with cancer and MC was our favorite rider ever!
@@dr00andrew way I look at it is this: almost all the pros say they don't like the grates because it takes away skill and variability of the start. how on earth is that any different from the situation with holeshot devices? /shrug. I'd rather do away with both, but if you keep one, the same rationale should apply to the other, no?
@@daneg Holeshot devices help, but not nearly as much as grates. I actually think grates are dangerous AF. now everyones going 40+mph into the first turn at the same time, especially in sx. at least before gates, there was separation on the start. sx starts are not ripped deep like motocross. they wanna remove dragons backs and do 9 whoops but damn get off the grates, they are dangerous for first turn pileups
@@dr00andrew grates in sx are somewhat redundant. I agree that much. there isn't much in front of the gate in the way of ruts/lines. my understanding is that grates were introduced primarily b/c that was the FIM standard. but FIM doesn't really "do" SX, so it's kind of an outlier. that said, the "skill" argument is no different than the argument against holeshot devices and the RPM devices which are all just crap that reduces the human element at the start. then again, at the end of the day, the better starters are still the better starters. except tomac. he's clearly doing a lot better with the grates. 😄
Mcgrath is on my bucket list before I go upstairs to meet this legend have followed him since he first road Sydney supercross in 1990 boy iam getting old but one day hopefully ile meet him somewere some day 😊
No you don't. It's a shithole. Highest taxes, highest gas prices, highest number of homeless, some of the highest home prices and rent, crappy weather for most of the state, and an idiot dictator for governor.
I remember watching Jeremy race a young Mike Alessi on a stock motor CR250 at the CMC Supercross races back in the day. Alessi won the overall, but MC kept him honest, and man that CR was singing all night!
This is sick, best thing I have seen on moto all week, always love the King! Dam that Mendid gear is sick, I'm ordering NOW.. sick brief's holy shit and the MX gear, dude! the OHHH! gear whew! Camo, yipee ki yay mutha huckers, wow! I'm onboard! Oh also the Sinasalo look would be awesome too! I still have gear that was made in Finland worn every day and still like new! Apart from some minor 2stroke mix spot here n there! Id be in for Elsinore as well but cant make it, dam riding with the King, now that's a event worth going to, even to watch! Also love that you come back to 2strokes dude respect, long live the King!🤘 Please also ask if he will in the future make some MTB shorts and short sleeve tops and brief's for MTB that would also be sick, retro Sinsalo or JT AXO any of that I will be shopping cart that shit faster than kicking that KX 500 into life! Great work, always the best gear, i been a SPY man for years also wont wear anything else FWIW. Cheers.
Top 3 rider of all time. Maybe the very best. I base my picks on longevity and the influence they had on the sport (J. McGrath, R. Johnson and B. Hannah). Don’t get me wrong, if someone had R. Carmichael, R. Villopoto and J. Stewart on that list it would be totally cool with those picks too. I just feel that during their respective eras Hannah, Johnson and McGrath took the sport to a different level.
I 1st saw McGrath race at Millville in 91 on the Peak bike. Fast as hell. His 90 kx125 he bought when he raced trucks in crandon, Wi. Low hr bike with a Dyno port pipe. PSI pipes were big in Wi. At that time. Too bad his 90 didv,t hv that pipe there Very good. 90 kx125 futuristic bike that yr. I,m sure MC doesn ,t know but the 1st auto race in america was in Wi. . They raced steam engines 1st place was 10k. 1st steam engine in the world Milwaukee. 1st sled with 2 stroke of course built in Wi. Big 2-st class in the st yet and a fast 125 class , 24-30 at some tracks. No 150,s. Jeremy should do a National tour racing local tracks on his 2 strokes. Wisconsin woukd Love to have him here racing. Public tv films at some tracks promoting explore Wi. Big racing state hell we race everything on the ice even. Oval, rd course, drag racing. 50k + spectators show up in below zero at the world championship snowmobile races in Eagle river. You havn,t heard anything until you hear a mod 2-st drag sled. Sum bros put there 100 lb chic on them. 150 mph in a 1/8 mi
Sorry for my observation but, does Jeremy have an allegy or did he do a little b__w be for e show???? Anyway, love the guy and his career and promotion of motocross sport...what a rider for sure. It's meant to be a comical joke folks!!!
Mc has to ride a Kawasaki sled . They had a tv commercial it showed them flying across a lake. Invader & intruder where 2 of the models. Everyone made 1 john deere, suzuki, sears, evenrude, etc. Navarino ski hill is for sale w. Of green bay. Chair lift needs repairs so it will sell cheap. I treepassed & made s mx track on it. 2 yrs later i got thrown out. Yrs later we had mx races on 3 ski hills. Navarino was 1 it had a ski flying ramp in the 60,s. My Dad knew the guy that jumped it 1st in wooded skis. I jumped down & up it , hit at angles then drop 900 ft down on my 87 cr125 . Learning how to jump, Great Rush
leaving my phone and wallet in the van when I ride not the smartest thing to do, all moto pants need some kinda damn pocket for the working rider. His family business was cool.

That's so cool
No holeshot devices is the best rule ever. #realstartskills
i still dont use one. if your body positioning and clutch feeding is good, you will be just fine

Jeffrey Herlings holeshot device stuck and caused him to crash!
MC has never lost his cool factor !
And never will
When your heroes seem as cool as you'd hoped, it feels good.
Swap, let's get a tour of MC's toys and bikes.
Do you remember the King and I podcast a couple of years ago? Did it then!
@@swapmotolive.Good interview tell mc ...fast answers and sniffing was the only evidence if you know😊
love this stuff! keep it coming. hail to the king! cheers.
Mcgrath is on my bucket list before I go upstairs to meet this legend have followed him since he first road Sydney supercross in 1990 boy iam getting old but one day hopefully ile meet him somewere some day 😊
Him & RC are two the greatest ever do it. Can’t forget Stewart of course too.
SHOWTIME !!! 🤘🏻🦾
The King is always the King, cool as a fan never outta style what a Legend 👑👌💯
I wish I lived in California!!! Riding with my hero MC would be a dream come true !!!

That was the greatest opening invitation ever 👏 Jeremy McGrath still has style 🏁
Man MC is still the king, coolest guy on the planet!
MC is the nicest guy! So rad!
Like the Kawi in the background. Those bikes rock. 2 stroke all the way

Hes just a bad ass plane and simply!!!
Bring the 500 Jeremy
93-94 was my favorite…my 94 cr125 was setup identical to his.
Awesome!!!
Maybe I haven'y seen all the videos but I would really like to see the King's KX collection with thorough descriptions.
Does MC still own spy?
I wondered 🤔 about that also. You don't see any pros wearing SPY. Do you know what's up Swap?

Gotta say ole MC looking good for his age! Rockin the modern haircut and still cocky AF!
Good to see MC looking good.💪👍✌️
I wonder if he would race me on my XR150 when I’m done with the 300cc big bore build.🤔
Maybe Jeremy can get Rick Johnson to show up for that whole shot king race ??? Get him back on a two stroke.
🤩🇺🇸👍⚖️👁️👁️👍 A real guy!🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Sorry for my observation but, does Jeremy have an allegy or did he do a little b__w be for e show???? Anyway, love the guy and his career and promotion of motocross sport...what a rider for sure. It's meant to be a comical joke folks!!!
I was thinking same thing.
He did a bump 😂
More then a dirt bump 🤣
he sounded just like factory Phil about his moms office!!
Gees Donn seems like everywhere you go. Someone mentions 500cc Two Strokes.......
Need to get some streamers set up at this thing!
Couldn’t click on this quick enough 👍
Loop out? Interviwer must not be familiar with leaving the gate before holeshot devices existed
Mc has to ride a Kawasaki sled . They had a tv commercial it showed them flying across a lake. Invader & intruder where 2 of the models. Everyone made 1 john deere, suzuki, sears, evenrude, etc. Navarino ski hill is for sale w. Of green bay. Chair lift needs repairs so it will sell cheap. I treepassed & made s mx track on it. 2 yrs later i got thrown out. Yrs later we had mx races on 3 ski hills. Navarino was 1 it had a ski flying ramp in the 60,s. My Dad knew the guy that jumped it 1st in wooded skis. I jumped down & up it , hit at angles then drop 900 ft down on my 87 cr125 . Learning how to jump, Great Rush
I don't understand why the manufacturers can't make a 2 stoke that can compete with the 4 stroke
❤❤❤❤❤😢❤🎉❤
7TIME 72w. A long stretch even when you're healthy, all ya good luck with that.❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
If he following this 'his Kawa is missing a bolt for the subframe!
Cool , 500
Dirt starts
The first time MC rode a four stroke he broke his neck!
MC is still cool as
500 👊🏻💪🏻
The perfect bike
Bring the peak cr125r
MC🤌🏽
He could make a ton of $$$ with a Jawzersize sponsor
leaving my phone and wallet in the van when I ride not the smartest thing to do, all moto pants need some kinda damn pocket for the working rider.
His family business was cool.
But..... thumpers are GRUNTERS
Elsinore is closing. Is this still happening?
MC playing a little to hard. Take it easy man, you can’t go snow skiing all day everyday. No Fear bro but you need it with this one.
"I'm coming with." With who? Finish your sentences.
Damn 2nd comment almost a win
Drip too hard
Hol shot device is stupid if you can't start with out one you better sort your technique out
Hope he was really a little sick….not in a mean way. Or else ……
✌strokes rule.... 🤨
😤😶🌫️
Bring them back !!!!
2 strokes only
500’s …. Who wouldn’t pay to watch those races ??
I think you should be able to raise two stroke or four stroke.
