A lot less to worry about this year. Goose, more sponsors, over that crash....he is over that crash, right?

The Two Two bike and gear look awesome. Good to see Goose on board.

I was never a big fan until I had a few words with him here at Thunder Valley national this year.

Great guy and I expect (HOPE) Chad is ready for the New Year.

The bike looks very American...lots of red, white, and blue!! CR looks pretty good...how many races will it take for something to go down between him and JS.....whether it is intentional OR accidental?? I hope it doesn't happen at all, but afraid it will!!

Just like JonnyB, we met him at Thunder Valley this summer. We got in the line after the cut off and he still made time to sign autographs and take a pic with the wife. We are definitely fans now! Good Luck Chad!

The bike looks rediculously good on the track. Too bad Dungey chose that pumpkin instead a tested proven machine.

I think this series is going to be good. I was thinking Villopoto was untouchable. James won't let that happen, Dungey's got something to prove, Chad's looking faster than ever and a couple other guys want to spoil someone's night; this is shaping up to be quite an opener. Is there a contest we could win for a weekend get away pass?

@mxchampion. REmember RedBud 2011. MILSAPS....YES....I SAID MILSAPS....RAN UP FRONT FOR MOST OF THE RACE. IF he wasn't such a TOOL he'd have won moto 1. James is at least 3-4 steps above DM.

I agree with most. Villo should win the title. BUT....JGR has a YAMAHA THAT TRACKS STRAIGHT IN THE BUMPS!!!!!!!

It will be 7 & 2 for the points!

just like the mcgrath video in terrafirma 2 just wish it had the same sound track. why dont you re cut it and add that song racer x as it is the best fillm clip of all time and it would be cool to see .Go *REEDY 2012*

sick gear as usual from Reedy/Shift. I really want him to win more than last year, he won me over last year- but I'm JS7 all the way! I really really want to see more races like ATL. A1 is always cool because it's the season Opener/the house that MC built. But seriously, how many badass races have happened in ATL?

Ref man. go and ride your pw 50 becasue like i said before. jgr cant put out a bike better then a factory. why are all you james fans even watching this video?

The Castillo Ranch looks like the ultimate riding spot. Never count out 22. Honda's main hope, again!!!!

Nice video, especially since he didn't talk. I'm gettin to like him, but he's still a lil whiney. I think Canard still gonna be top 3 dude. He's Honda's stud rider. Best of luck to Reed though...

Video was awesome. The music (if that's what you consider music) was God awful. Had to turn the volume all the way down in order to watch the video to it's completion. I wish this type of music would not be a part of motocross videos.

Whatever...the bike looks "American" what in the hell is it supposed to look like???
Do you want him to put green and purple on it?

Dash...A whiner are you kidding, because the guy has more heart and determination than any of them he is a whiner?

Reed looks more relaxed and confident then last year which better make everyone else think twice. You thought he did good last year, just wait. And for all the Stewart talkers...he took 4th Reed took 2nd.

The gear and bike scheme does look pretty damb good..... gear reminds me of the 95/96 Honda/ Fox gear MC and company used .....

Br411 - " Purple and green"!!! - CLASSIC good laugh....except it would have been green and yellow...aussie style...

All these dudes are going to be on it....and ready....RV, JS7, Reed and Dungey (and maybe Trey will make A1 since he was riding yesterday) all have there own thing to prove....RV is defending, James is ready win a title again, Reed wants to hush the doubters and Dungey wants to make pumpkin pie with that KTM of his....

I have to agree! That is the best looking factory honda I've seen in a long time! Although he's not considered a Honda factory rider- wonder how Bailey, Johnson and O'Mara would have done on that bad boy! I think this year is going to be out of control in the bar to bar action. Those of you on this board that really think Stewart is not going to bring his "A" game- or that he is not up to par with Villi, Reed, Dungey, Canard- your out of your mind! With exception of Villi- I have alot of respect for these other riders and am a big fan- BUT JS7 has been, and will be the rider with a target on his back wether he won last year or not. Everyone knows that stewart is lethal when he's in shape and has his head in the game. As far as his Yamie? Do you really think that with Joe Gibbs winning ways- money- and connections that Stewart is going to be on some run of the mill stock bike you pick up at your local shop? WTF? I can guarantee his bike will have all the sneeky parts and mods those "Factory" bikes will have- I mean come on, its James Stewart, that boy can make one phone call and get whatever he needs- and they will pay him to use it! Good luck to all the riders. Gonna be good.............

Can anyone explain to me how the FORMERLY RESPECTFUL FOX family can get away with letting one of their riders USE another companies gear!!!!!!!!!!!

Fox brain bucket and shift gear. NO CONTINUITY REED! SLOPPY!

Just goes to show how much these dorks will use who ever pays the best.

I wish I could do it!!!!!!!

Wanted to say Chad looks like crap, but there is no way I can do that after seeing the video. The bike does look good too. I guess I can say the music sucks, though. Still, he needs to look good to run with whoever is going to be winning and my money is on RV.

dash wrote: 9:16pm January 4, 2012

I guess "nice video" left me slightly exposed to the music being good too. I stand corrected, the music, when turned down low, was acceptable. The only thing that drives me alil nutso is the A-Star flashing boots stuff on the side.

Just when I thought the music in moto videos couldn't get any worse, they put out a killer video or Reedy, looking totally dialed at one of the most epic riding spots and then the editors add their little brothers rap group to the sound track. LAME, LAME, LAME..........

Good luck to Reed. I don't really care who wins A1 so long as it isn't Bubbles.

This vid is what I like to see.....super sweet! Reed looks ready and his bike is badass, total package. The music seems to go with the video, can't have everything you want. Alcohol nor drugs go with this sport either but it never fails you always see those that mix the two.
