Great to see some real swagger back in his riding. Dude looks great on the Honda and like he is having a ball riding.

Same song and dance. Bouncing a 450 off the limiter 24/7 is going to bite him again and again.

He looks a lot more comfortable than he did in the videos before Monster Cup. That corner speed is ridiculous!Cant wait to see how well he does in 2018. Should be fun to watch.

If you rev the bike while in the air the rear wheel actually propels you forward decreasing lap times.

I guess the Yamaha tryout didn’t go forward to replace Millsaps?

That made my day right there. Oh my, that’s what I was wondering! It must be the Rex Kwon Do school of motocross: You must be revving the bike...AT ALL TIMES!

He was definitely going. I hope he stays healthy and can be in the mix in 2018. The more folks up front the better.

If he keeps the attitude he had at Monster Cup (racing is fun), I think he'll do pretty well.

He's ripping that thing like only a few riders can! Maybe some of you critics can show him the ropes huh? Keep it under 7,500 rpm Justin or you'll disappoint the "core" fans, and DV

Now that, that looked fast.

Of course, Bam Bam has had the speed before, but can he do that 20 times in a row? I would like to see it. Really hoping for a good year for him.

Absolutely flying! But you have to take into account he probably has many laps on this track.

Or maybe it did, and the YZ was enough of a shitbox that he figured he was better off on a privateer Honda than a factory YZ...

Any pro rider on a perfectly groomed track with a perfect one line can look that fast. Put another rider right next too him and we’ll really see

Side note : I didn't read all the posts here , just a few. But if you don't think that is simply hauling ass on a tight SX track....then pull your head out of your ass. That was impressive to say the least. And I'm not blowing smoke here.....but I would say that's the best I've ever seen him. JB is hauling the fucking mail in that vid! To think otherwise is just stupid.

he looks good and definitely much improved from MEC.

so...cue the vital anthem of home track, perfectly groomed etc etc.


d34 from the way back.


i'm really hoping he can find that potential he's always had and put together a top flight season before it's too late.

remember this is the kid who used to make kenny cry into his rice crispies.
