Forreal. I know this comment a couple years old but I wish there was more black riders in the sport. Could use a little diversity and would bring more fans to the sport.
That guy was annoying back then and seems to have learned nothing. I wish they'd get rid of him. Hate how he screams, then asks a question only to keep jabbering so nobody can answer.
Ralph is verbal truth you can't fix stupid. He's been doing SX ten years now and been in sports broadcasting since the late 1980's, and he hasn't learned anything. Wish they'd get a new voice of SX/MX.
No lol Ricky Carmichael is. He handed James his ass plenty outdoor and indoor. 2006 season both indoor and out proves that. Bubba will always be number 2….coach or win. More crashing than wins
Might be weird but I think my top three is #1 RC, #2 RV2, and #3 ET3 overall. Stewart was amazing and probably the fastest ever but IMO i think he lost titles to both RC and RV and just crashed way to much.
JS7 the fastest man to ever do it. Lol Chad Reed complaining about dirty passes and riding. How many times did that guy make dirty aggressive passes on Stewart? He had it coming.
Reed said that it was the dangerous aspect of it that pissed him off, and said that he was perfectly fine with it any other place on the track, but cross jumping over the big triple was not on. Sure reed can be dirty, same as Stewart. I know he isn't in this video, but the dirtiest rider who literally can't pass anyone clean ever, no matter if he is near dead last or in the top three is Barcia! And he cries every single time if someone gives it back to him!
Recently In the 2010 era in mid 2015 and late 2020 the Yamaha 250 class has been picking however it struggles in the Premier class. They have been winning Championships as of late.
This never gets old racing is not the same without Reed and James battlefield sick recaps on the history of how to get it done my top to favorite racer Js being #1Reed at #2 best racers in motocross super cross history
Bet you also forgot Stewart's teammate Chisholm tried to take Reed out just one weekend prior. Im not saying Reed was right, but it certainly was earned.
@@tylerdurden6937 good lord mr. durden. This isn't the fight club your supposed to be engaging in lol. Ps. It's a matter of opinion. You can't prove I'm wrong, and I can't, you. So let it go 😂
Stewart is a way better rider than Reed. You don’t see James resorting to taking people out like that because he has the SKILL to make a clean pass 100% of the time. Reed does do what he has do and that’s be a dirty rider to keep up w James
No doubt Stew was fast, but he was a lot more exciting on the 125 2-smokers. He could ride the knobbies off that bike like no other. Check out Villo riding the edge at 33:04.
Now this is just my opinion but the Stewart and reed rivalry is almost like Roczen & Tomac. Also I’ve said this once before but I’m gonna say it again best series ever even though I skipped 2008.
Still is... Reed was a second place rider always and to this day takes people out because he doesn't know how to make a clean pass... hated that guy for over 15 years lol
@@kevlar-769 Doesn't know how to make a clean pass? looked like a clean pass on Stewart at Anaheim and then James hit neutral in the whoops in front of Reed.
Definitely a great season. Down to the very end between Reed and Stewart. Kyle Chisholm is still on my hate list because he held Reed up in Salt Lake City. It was the 2nd to last race of the season during a tight points battle. Reed and Stewart were battling hard the whole race. It made me so mad because Chisholm was a lap down, and it seemed a little fishy that he was teammates with Stewart at the time... Edit: I wrote this message before I even watched this video. Chisholm saw Reed and went for the block pass for Stewart...as a lap rider. Ridiculous.
52:20 Really wish this guy stayed off the ground and stuck with SX/MX. Awesome honesty and personality. AC kinda seems a bit like Pastrana, without the backflips.
I’ve always been a big Reed fan only because I felt like he was the underdog compared to RC and JS7 but he did ride a little aggressive but he was a smooth rider but Bubba and Ricky and Reed era were the days in my opinion.
Sooo glad Chad Reed is retired, it was very sad watching him think he was still competitive with today’s talent and get lapped by the front runners! All he he was doing was taking up space that was ment for a young/upcoming rider who could use some sponsor help, support new riders, instead of supporting a has been aka Chad Reed, support new talent!
Lmao facts. You could say the same with Dungey and some of his chips. Dungey was a hell of a rider but he benefited from all the contenders crashing out
You either love Reed or hate him. Yes, Stew has more wins. Most moves were for the win. If you were in the Chisolm/Reed conflict and it cost you the win how would you feel?
Exactly, this season would have been extremely boring if Reed wasn't in it. They forget that and they forget about the millions in cash both are paid to win, and the manufacturers along with the major sponsors additional pressures expecting their riders to win etc etc! So of course aggressive riding will happen! And Stewart wasn't shy of riding overly aggressive when he felt like it! The fact is that it made the races and the entire season brilliant, something that we don't get to see anymore with the last 5 or 6 seasons, have been hardly memorable at all.
When James and Malcolm were growing up together i will bet you that James and Malcolm played cat-and-mouse games on their motocross track at home. That is what james gained a lot of experience when playing games with Reed and Ricky.
Stewart was way faster than Reed anyways, the only reason reed was able to compete was making cheap passes from far back to pass for first. Without those cheap passes, he gets left behind almost every time.
Yes it’s the truth sadly. Part of the reason is they don’t race at a lot of the old stadiums that they used to. But nevertheless designs have been laughable in the past years compared to these days
All you Reed haters need to look back on 2007, and 2008 when bubba basically pushed Reed off the track, and others in those years. Reed (in 2009) was just giving bubba a little of his own medicine.
stop that, it’s always been reed trying to play dirty with james. reed was always dirty with both RC and james. both those riders never rode dirty against each other, so why would they ride dirty against someone so much worse then them? reed will never be in the same category as james or rc. he’s a dirty racer and anyone that watches unbiased knows it.
@@codypurtlebaugh9879 dont talk bs, reed could match rc anytime in supercross and Bubba most of the time. Rc and reed never rode dirty against each other, stewart started the dirty riding against reed in 2006 and chad just did it the same way than. So stop talkin bullshit about reed, he was allways a title contender and could be faster than James and rc when the heat was on.
L it all started way back when James let reed pass him in outdooors and he passed him back. Reed literally always tried/or took out stewS James pushed reed ofc because that’s racing but he never went to deliberately take out reed like chad has done multiple times to Stewart.
james won that much & was behind on bike performance and had to override everything...in 09 fuel injected Yamahas werent out at the start of the season still won the championship
Man I love James Stewart. I’m so happy every time he wins.
Forreal. I know this comment a couple years old but I wish there was more black riders in the sport. Could use a little diversity and would bring more fans to the sport.
This year was my introduction to the sport as a 6 year old kid I’m about to turn 20 now… time flies but I was truly lucky to witness this back then
James Stewart’s run from ‘08 Pro Motocross thru ‘09 SX was as dominant as I’ve ever seen
This was the best season besides the years battling RC! Oh and the awesome year of 2014'!😊😊 Thank you Mr James Stewart the real #7!
2011 was really unpredictable also!! RV, CR, JS and RD with a little trey canard in the mix
It would have been a bloody boring season if reed wasn't there, so remember to thank reed too
I like 2006, 2007, 2009, 2014 the best i think
2011 was the most competitive year IMO.
@@paulreefman4108 while Reed did keep the championship fight going, It’s never boring when you can watch greatness like Stew.
probably the best Supercross season ever
2006 was
@Chaz from UK I didn't ask for your opinion hahaha 2017 was fire too I'm js 2009 was fire
2010 was the best season ever lol says the Dungey fan
@@mattbarrois8675 🤣

what a great replay of the season really enjoyed it.They need to get back to designing tracks likes that.

@@johntomasik1555and now everyone misses him and wants him back lmao
Stewart and Reed battling in Jacksonville was one of the greatest ever
One of the best and most exciting of all seasons
I miss James he was my Favorite a 2 time Monster Energy AMA Supercross FIM World Champion 🏆🥇and he raced my Favorite Number 7️⃣ For Life 💙
James Stewart is a boss
I wish I could get as excited as Pastrana about dirt bikes. I love them, but you can tell he's on another level.
Who still coming back to this shit and rewatching all these years later ?!!!? This season was straight fire !!! 🎉
Bubba will always be the true GOAT of dirt bike racing.
Big facts
No lol Ricky Carmichael is. He handed James his ass plenty outdoor and indoor. 2006 season both indoor and out proves that. Bubba will always be number 2….coach or win. More crashing than wins
Nope. He's the COW: Crash Or Win. RC is the one and only GOAT
Might be weird but I think my top three is #1 RC, #2 RV2, and #3 ET3 overall. Stewart was amazing and probably the fastest ever but IMO i think he lost titles to both RC and RV and just crashed way to much.
Absolutely
Chad Reed so salty in Vegas he tried to take out stewart lol
Stewart and Reed would have 4 or 5 championships if they didn't have so much disdain for each other! But they have made it fun for us.
Also if Stewart never got injured or suspended
Reed had all the disdain, Stewart was just doing his job better than anyone ever did. I like Reed but man, he was a whiner!
Good race Stewart proper classic thumbs up 👍
JS7 the fastest man to ever do it.

@@paulreefman4108 My bad dude, I didn't realize I said what you said already, that's on me
season is so good that there is not a single dislike
Stewart’s corner speed at 53:48 Insane!
Man I wish Emig was still announcing
There have been some fantastic rivalries and battles over the years. For me, the Stew/Chad battles are my favourite. Both such amazing competitors.
Why did the Daytona race get skipped?
Different promoters and announcers, so they can't use that TV footage for these compilations
Why am I watching in 2020 LOL
@Tanner Games Big facts. Waiting for the motocross season to start lol
Rona lockdown 🥳🤪😤🤬
Why am I rewatching what I watched live in 2021 lol
2021 supercross is so depressing I had to teleport back 2009
Damn! Stewart took Chads ride and his title!
480p WTF?! 720p at least.. damn
A true champ 🏆
Watching how villopoto comes to life with 3 rounds to go is cool. Back then I never thought we was gonna be that guy 2 years later
He was that guy in 2010 till he had bad luck and broke his leg.
22:02 When James becomes James Stewart
#JS7
Moto Rider94 definitely the funnest rider to watch of all time! His style and speed was unmatched!
the best ride supercross js7
Reed won the outdoors this year, good year for james and chad and maybe the best year ever since rc retired.
Epic Racing!
And then....Yamaha turned there motor backwards.....THE END
Cody Wells The best idea ever.
LMAO 🤣 😂 exactly they haven't been the same since! James Stewart was the last to win a SX championship on a Yamaha! 😥
And then Reed's wife got a breast reduction. THE END...LOL
2009 was the beat year for the 250f's.

thank you
Las Vegas race? James playing cat and mouse with Reed.
I have a mxz 850x once I do the hi torque rollers in the clutches I'm gonna try the ultimax to see what happens
Imagine having to always try and put the other dude in the dirt to win, and still losing...must be frustrating ...
those older four strokes sound funky compared to the newer ones
I would hope so it’s been over a decade
James held back so Chad to come up and race with him... it is as obvious as it is day is long.

That first race was insane from Reed and Stewart crash to Josh Hill winning with that plastic in his tire
They refer to Stewart & grant as “team mates”.... weren’t they on two separate Yamaha teams???
No to bike team....
Back when racing was legit
the suzuki is the best looking bike
I've always thought that
Chad was one of the best, just never had anything for James or Ricky
stewart was so damn good wow

Why does it say JS7 never won another Supercross race after the round that Grant won 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
You know Alessi was paid to let reed by anytime he was behind him! 😂😂😂
Reed has a very good start but he won’t get the holesh- YES HE WILL! lol
Reed always sounded like a cry baby
Such respect to Chad and all the Competitors though. The elite Sx riders of the world hands down.
Now this is just my opinion but the Stewart and reed rivalry is almost like Roczen & Tomac. Also I’ve said this once before but I’m gonna say it again best series ever even though I skipped 2008.
The 2008 series was pretty blasé. Stewart was out early due to a knee injury and the championship was basically Chad’s to lose.
1:00:23 Jacksonville was epic
Reed was dirty
dirty sounds kinda negative, but he got it done. whatever he had to do. respect.
Still is... Reed was a second place rider always and to this day takes people out because he doesn't know how to make a clean pass... hated that guy for over 15 years lol
reeds dirty but if its chism being dirty "do what you gota do"
Reeds an a-hole.

23:40 Chad giving up on Stewart
Ah man, the dreaded Pastrana track lol.
Stewart had Reid set up a few times and a couple close calls but never cheep shot-ed Reid proportional to Reid's fitful reaction.
4:59 they didnt get together, Reed ran into the back of stewart taking him out and himself out too.
Reed is turning faster laps but Stewart is the fastest.... That makes no sense at all....
