It was so cool to see Ricky Johnson actually call David Bailey his hero. Ricky was a hell of a hard charging, determined, and great rider himself.
Never ever will there be another David Bailey !! My true hero !!!
How could anyone not love David Bailey? My god, what an amazing human being!!
@@unclequack5445 his determination is what I truly admire.
@@unclequack5445 watch his MX FILES to find out
David Bailey was and is, a true legend.
David Bailey will always be a legend I’ve followed. I miss seeing him as an announcer on ESPN!
What an amazing human being. Even through the extreme adversity of life's challenges, he moved forward which is truly amazing. Loved watching him race.
Bailey - A true champ!!
I was a big fan back then, and and even bigger fan now!
I loved David bailey on ESPN. I wish he would go back to announcing.
on planet Earth, and on planet Motocross, David Bailey is simply the greatest value we have as a reference like humility, talent, Heart and dedication to this day no one comes even close... 😎💖💫💯🥇🔝🏁
The first pro motocross race I ever attended was the 1981 Red Bud Trans - USA Series and the first autograph I got was David Bailey. He couldn't have been more nice and told us to enjoy the race. He rode for Team Green Kawasaki #45 wearing Fox gear and I believe he was 7th or 8th overall, beating my favorite rider Bob "Hurricane" Hannah who I think was 9th or 10th overall. I have went to many pro races since then and have got many autographs, but David was my first and I still have the program he signed it on. I will NEVER forget it. Thanks David!! You was, were, and always will be a inspiration too all who know you or have followed your career. God Bless You!!
David Bailey was the smoothest rider I've ever seen. His riding style was effortless looking. I can't believe how he deals with the loss of being AMBULATORY. A true measure of a Man.
David Bailey is a champion in my book! Learned alot from him and his fathers book how to race motocross. Raced at lake sugar tree mx park in axton VA many times. Great track.David is a icon in the sport of motocross !!!!!
His positive attitude is so inspiring!
The smoothest in town .made mx look effortless.the thinker.the lil professor. A joy to watch DB the humble specialist 👍uk.
He was one of my childhood heros in the early 80's when i got into dirtbikes/motocross. Bumped into him at the Houston supercross late 90's. I talked with him and the editor of Racer X mag for a little bit. He signed a airbrush illustration of a motocross scene I had created which was my purpose of trying to run around in the pit area. Good times, 2-stroke days.
I also ran the orange JT gear and had the ALS-1 helmet i custom painted red/orange and blue. I raced at Moiser Valley on fri night and sat day towing my 86' honda CR125 behind my white IROC-Z.
always love the JT helmets & gear design.. they were so cool...
Still have mine from 26 years ago
David gave me my first pair of riding pants when I was 6 years old. They were his when he was a child. I still have them
That is f'n cool.
That's cool.
He is my favorite rider of all TIME!
He will NOT be forgotten !!!!!!!!!!!!
Just listened to The Whiskey Throttle Show featuring David Bailey. He has an awesome story and is a true inspiration.
I enjoyed this vid immensely!!
A true golden reflection of a golden era, that helped shape my life.
These guys were so inspiring for me and everybody I rode with.
Not just about their will to win though, but also how to dedicate yourself to anything you want to do in life. They are winners, and were great inspiring role models; something that seems to be on the endangered list.
Who do kids look up to today, people like that kapnernick nut?
He is and always will be my hero.
David was an awesome rider, one of the most technical MX/SX riders ever. I was lucky enough to trained with Gary at his ranch "Lake Sugar Tree MX park two consecutive years." the first time he gave us a delightful demonstration of SX.
But the most important, he is a PRO as a man, no matter what he pursue.
Great story. Always have admired David.
I think it’s amazing that enough people rallied around him and helped him get on after the horrific injury! I wish there was more help for injured people. I lost my careers in Law Enforcement and Soldiering due to a sever injury that made my sciatic nerve stop working correctly, causing me extreme pain, foot drop, etc. Now it’s really hard to find a good job.
Go David! I wish i had some of those signature riding duds, they look cool.
My idol wen I first started racing motocross. I was sponsored by JT racing for a little while before I got hurt.
David Bailey,..forever a champion!.....🇺🇸👍
I’m reminded why David Bailey is my hero.
Mike he's my hero too.
Jim Madonna Truly awesome.
My favorite rider at that time and no favorites after. I wanted JT gear and have the Bailey look
The greatest test of character is how you deal with adversity. Don't pass the chance to be at your best when it comes knocking.
I remember having that bright orange JT gear.... Even got a orange seat cover for my bike. Somewhere I think I have that orange chest protector. Young people could learn something from David Bailey. Man I miss that decade...……...
Nice people go far in life David Bailey proves that
His riding style was so cool, he on the Honda was just so cool.
AWESOME VIDEO
Great history ,big rider,big men!
I'm Brazilian fan.
Why thumbs down this?
The best!!!!!!!!!
I remember watching these guys just never knew what happened to my hero''s ever one of them are hero's in my book
Hero's in my book also. But not because they were the best racers in the world, but because they had/have a fantastic human "can do" spirit, that was the cause of them being the best racers in the world.
It is the greatness of the individual human spirit, where hero's come from.
Just thanks man,
Awesome.
I have set #22 of this gear. Still all brand new. Never been worn.
Rick Johnson. Awesome.
The iron man meant more to him, that’s awesome.
Love you DAvid
Is this still around Iwould lol ove watch these guy's
Legend.
Bailey a true gentleman.
A true gentlemen ....Really ? How good do you know him? Well I dont know him either but i'll ell you a story real quick. In 86' I rode my Yam 1100 from Palmdale to Carlsbad went to the UsGp. untll the moment I reached thru the fence to shake Baileys hand I respected and admired him. when he looked down at my hand , looked up at me and turned away even the people who just shook his hand were floored kept asking me if I knew him. to which I answered no....then they got the just or injust of his refusal because the only thing that separated me from all the other spectators was the color of my skin. So praise that yellow belly cock sucker if you want to but I have wiped my ass with paper that is stronger than he is. Fuck David Bailey.
Wish I knew he made that limited run. I would have bough it.... I still have my Bob Hanna jersey signed by him when he went to Honda... As I worked for Yamaha and raced a Honda. That didn't go over to well. But I told the owner. I paid for it, not you. You should have sold me a Yamaha at cost. He did the next year :0
It would be nice if they still made the old jet racing helmets
Excellence
After the injury, motocross didn't mean as much to me.It effected so many people.
bailey,omara,rj,dogger,hurricane,team honda was hitting it all cylinders those days,right b4 it all fell apart,for all of em,one way or another
He's my hero! Is his dad Gary still alive?
Great video! But why does Davey Coombs say MOTORCROSS? There is only one R in the word. It's MOTO-CROSS!!!
Jeff Dinkin
I thought that was a bit peculiar as well. But it's ok, buddy. We all know what he meant. The English language is played loose everywhere we hear it. I'm gonna start saying motorcross, just because it's fun!
Hay dave,
I think they was a tad jelouse of Ricky Johnson David was later back and Ricky wasn't
Too bad One industries went out of business last year.
