I sat next to Bubba and his father on a flight into Syracuse many years ago. Except, I didn't know it was Bubba. All I saw was a guy with his hoodie pulled down over his head sitting next to the window and trying to catch some zzzzz's before we even took off. It wasn't until baggage claim that I recognized him… "Holy cow!!! You're Bubba Stewart!!!" Both Bubba and his father lit up with brilliant smiles! It was quite an honor… I think they were heading to Syracuse to race at Broome-Tioga.. I think he was still racing for Kawasaki at the time. What a treat! What a nice family!
It's too bad he looks like Johnny Somali.
Amazing bubba. The real king of sx mx
He's are Jordan, Brady/manning/ Roethlisberger, are earnhardt… the best ever on a dirt bike. If he never got hurt and didn't take time off he would crushed every motocross and supercross records
Elite group (decosta, Jeremy McGrath, Ricky Carmichael and james stuart) next level 💥✅.😉🇬🇧.
He said there is a debate on if JS7 is the fastest. I've watched moto/supercross since the McGrath era. I don't think I have ever seen anyone faster than Bubba. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The real GOAT
This guy is so fluid.
Only other person capable of truly pushing Bubba to the limits and causing him grief was Ricky Carmichael lol. Ricky retired too early.
Having to win every Race!??😅,
Yea right!!,
ai script
Unreal !!
Bubba has incredible arm strength and unsurpassed ability to find the line to flow the fastest.
@3:47 The Banner At His Back Tire, Says It All… Sick Shot!!!
I always thought Reed was a punk, but I felt/feel sorry for him. He raced at the worst time ever. He was blistering fast and a great racer. But, his career coincided with Carmichael and Stewart. The only time Reed won was when those two guys either weren't racing or had crashed out (often due to Reed, himself). When RC and JS were done, in steps Villopoto and Dungey. Despite being a great racer, Reed was never more than the 3rd fastest guy on the track … hoping to win the battle of attrition to get a win.
RC, more than any rider I've seen, found and held the line between optimized speed and danger. He sort of found and toed the line of just how fast a bike could go, without crossing the line and recklessly crashing. Stewart danced on both sides of that line. At times, he was the fastest guy out there, because he crossed the line … but, then he also crashed out too often.
nice video bro, you tell it perfect
This guy rides like he's on a Freekin SURF BOARD! IT'S LIKE WATCHING, M.J. ON THE COURT AND THE 1 ON THE DANCE FLOOR TOO! HE HE, TONGUE STICKING OUT AS HE BUBBA SCRUBB SLAM DUNK ON THOSE HILLY DIRT WAVES!
Bubba was definitely incredibly fast. He was the best crasher too.😆 but he could get back up and win….
Best ever BUBBA Stewart.
The Best ever
Jo Jo Keller invented the scrub before JS was born. Just Google him famous New England rider….Not taking any thing from bubba he definitely perfected it. Just not first rider to do it. Facts are facts
In my day Bob "Hurricane " Hannah was the king of peg the throttle and hang on, Bubba personified him and when he was flowing it was magical!
