Cheaty Reedy- yeah
No one else has broken frames as a hobby !!!!!
Your team failed you over your aderal BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did Quads exist before James?!!!
The end of 2-Strokes and the loss of James ended everything great about racing dirt bikes.
Miss your presence so much, James . Thanks for coming back with Ricky to broadcast. The 2 of you are the best of everything to live for! Peace!
I think it is time for black people to stop hating the word nigga i think its just a synonym for black
Yeah, I remember in the 2000s when I started trying motocross at a late ripe old 35 years old.. James Stewart was my inspiration then all of a sudden he disappeared and I didn’t know what happened till today! Win every race one motocross season 24 out of 24 has anybody ever done that since motocross has popularity these days the sport dies when people are not there to sensationalize it
I see some of these young black men riding these motocross bikes on the street illegally doing all kind of stuff and I always say one of them in there could’ve been a James Stewart, but never got the chance and never will
I see it more as, passion hard work and plenty of skills, is it important that he's black!?🫤
This is why blacks are hated. Blessed to be great!
Thank you for documenting this phenomenal piece of black history!
He was sabotaged and didn’t know it!! Listen to the motor!! His mechanics didn’t make sure it responded to his throttle input!!! He could tilt that bike in his sleep!! They made sure the gyroscopic forces he controlled while riding against gravity were null and void!!!
James s is the reason i watch motor cross 😊
Dude deserves everything's he's done and achieved.
He may be black but in truth he was just an amazing rider. Amazing.
dat boi was slangin dat bike🎉❤🎉❤
Wyt ppl feel small when they see a black person what a weirdo's. Its has to be inferiority complex.
They did the worse thing they can do to limit his greatness . They stopped him in hopes someone would surpass him. Instead they just made the legend more monumental.
America is full of racist white people. Things haven’t changed much from the 1940’s
James didn’t invent the scrub it was done way before him he was just known for having one of the best scrubs
James Bubba Stewart, he earn his fame from the smallest point. Starting at racism & anger people then turning the crowd to excitement and proud!
James won’t ever be forgotten. So many fans!
I don’t believe someone said this too him. We don’t race N. Please man. Don’t pull the r card
They love him. I don’t think anyone was looking at his color skin.
JS7 was not one of the fastest Ri-key HE WAS THE FASTEST! the GOAT OF SPEED something you will never be. plus people like him. can you say that? didn't think so. go fluff your pom poms Ri-key! SMX SMX SMX HALFTIME WILDCARD PLAY OFFS piss off ri-key!
“Good, I came here to race motorcycles” 😂😂 perfect response
That suspension was wack
Ricky smoked him out of his prime when Bubba was in his prime…. then the dude got lazy … didn't put in the work and fell off…. then we watched Villapoto smoke him before he just gave up….. far from GOAT……Stewart is just marketing ploy looking for new demographic sales
What an absolute legend
Big James didnt ride that baby on a MX Bike as soon as they got home. Thats just wild. James is the God of MotoDads.
I grew up in the golden age of the sport in the 80's stopped watching it when they transitioned to 4 stroke. Saw Stuart live once in Atlanta he was amazing even though Vilipono won that night. I didn't realize the struggles he faced with racism in the sport and to anyone who looks at an individual by color and not as a person fuck off!! I guarentee James has more character in his pinky than you have in your entire family tree!
He definitely changed the game…😂I wanted a dirt bike so bad. I just used my bmx bike and pretended to be him. They suspended him to let a new star be born. He was so dominant.
James is a legend, and my idol for many years.
He also the first Afro American I ever seen ride a dirt bike so hats off to him
Crazy how we Black people can just go into these “non Black” sports and become legends lol. Same with Zeb Powell and snowboarding, Tiger with golf, Serena/Venus with tennis.
Big 259!
What a time it was for 2-wheels
When I was little my grandpa rode motorcycles and always promised me we ride through california together and when he passed I always promised I would do that for him when I got 10yr I watched so much of james Stewart Jr I 2007 and he was such an inspiration to me and he helped me keep my joy and love for riding and a black kid especially I'm 21 now and I'm still working to getting my bike and everytime I get nostalgic I watch james races he is one of motorcycles greatest to do it
