Lame? hahaha tell that to everyone else but RC that has raced MX and never came close to that record.

And even if he does smoke everyone, you will have an excuse as to why it doesn't mean shit.

That's what haters do, they hate. Find something to hate on no matter what the outcome. Have fun with that this weekend. BRO

Just be happy he is racing, watching Dungey out front by himself every race would get boring, really fast.

I don't care what anyone says, and I'm in no way a fanboy of any rider, just love the sport BUT the rest of the 450 class is in trouble because James will win on the Suzuki. The Yamaha was the problem for him. Maybe not for you, me or Davi but it was the problem for James. Simple as that.

I'm excited James is racing the nationals... He's just fun to watch and definitely adds an element to the 450 class (think it would've been the Dungey show without him). Plus I think racing the outdoors will help James for SX next year. Any way you look at it, I think it's great for the sport.

However, I'm surprised at how many people continue to doubt Dungey... especially outdoors. He has proven he can run up front (and win) against RV, Reed, and Stewart, so I still think he's the favorite for the title... which makes it cool because James is an underdog.

Can't wait for Saturday! 250s are going to be unreal.

That jump that he does at around 5:10 is awesome.....just how he puts his whole body into laying it over and relying on it.

#7 looks fast on the yellow bike. Like the Bubba of old.

Yup. Not a fan but holy mofo shit!!!! He looks to be really dialed. watching the GH vid and this, I'm impressed. Fitness is the only question, but just, wow. This a way different James , out there riding in public. Is this a new mindset? Get out and ride in real world conditions? He hasn't been this out there ever I think.

Wow. That's more like it. Whatever lack of confidence James was having sure looks to be gone now. Face forward, leaning into things and riding the edges of the track. That bike was seriously hooking up in the turns.

Thank you for the video.

I think it is awesome that Stewart is finally riding outdoors outdoors after skipping the outdoors for the last 3 seasons. It is going to be one hell of a battle with Dungey and I only wish to God that Reed and Villopoto were out there as well.

And I can understand James' hard core fans being super excited, but the silliness factor with his fans went off the charts days ago.

He looks like he trusts the bike. Personally, I think he didn't trust the Yamaha (right or wrong, I don't know. Ive never risen one and I will never be his speed), so he was riding timid, which was affecting his speed and IMO it was making him crash more. On the Suzuki, the way his head is so far over the front of his bike that he is almost kissing the front fender over jumps, really illustrates his trust in the machine.

Just a side note; the bike looks very close to bottoming on the down hill breaking bumps. If he is close to bottoming it in a practice, then at race pace he might need it a little stiffer. JMO

Never thought I say James needs a stiffer setup.

I agree, although you're comparing supercross fork setting to outdoors.......

You called it lame not me.

Like I said, please tell me anyone else, besides a hater who would call that lame.

Its shit only legends do. Two of them so far. Respect that.

Reading comprehension and understanding, try it sometime.
Re-reading it I see how he worded it, and I took it differently. My fault.

I read it as "a lame broken record" there was no N on the end of broke so that is all me.

Very rare I make a mistake.

But the gist of what I was getting at is the hate he has, and has had for the number 7.

I just get a kick out of watching you fanboys squirm and squeal when I post. I could give a flying fuck about the guy. You're all mildly entertaining and thanks for that. Now go put on a #7 jersey and go to play X-box kids.

After watching that guy ride a bike that he is comfortable on and seeing the way he controls a motorcycle you have to think that he is one of the best to ever ride a dirt bike. If you don't then you are either a hater or you have never ridden a dirt bike. My son and I are both JS fans and he has been saying all along that the Yamaha was his problem and after watching James on this bike I have to agree. I think the 2013 SX is going to be interesting.

Man, that guy works the edges of a racetrack like nobody's business. The only time he's square in the center of the track is when he's switching from the left edge to the right edge. Gary Bailey used to teach that in his schools. He'd say, Where do novices ride? In the center of the track. And what happens when lots of guys ride the same line? It gets bumpy. What happens when you hit bumps at high speed? Your wheels come off the ground. And when your wheels come off the ground, you can't turn, you can't accelerate and you can't brake - you just have to wait until they hit the ground again. So ride where the other guys don't (which is almost always right against the edge of the track).

Im just glad he is riding the outdoors, will be a much better year of racing with him out there giving it his all. I have no doubt he will give it his all to show it was the YZ keeping him from having good results.

I think Dungey and Stewart will have some good battles this year.

No question Dungey looked much better on the Suzuki.

So let me get this straight.... if someone is a fan of JS he's a "fanboy"? If someone repects JS for his accomplishments he's a "fanboy"? If someone is excited to see him ride outdoors he's a "fanboy"? If someone comments on his speed he's a "fanboy"? Is that about right? If you hate the dude so much (which you clearly do) why don't you stay out of his threads you fuckin lame.

LOL! Sparticus is just pissed because he knows whoever it is that he favors is just going to be one position back now that James is on a bike he likes.

Are you sure, from all accounts he couldn't wait to get off the Suzuki last year, disliked it which seems strange to me but that is what was going around the pits. And metty has been slagging it off this year saying it needs to be better, but that might be a excuse cause he doing shit.
I know it not sx but I liked how his suspension actually used its full stroke soaking the breaking bumps up, you could it was working well in the slow moo footage, unlike dilla a few year back. Oh yea I liked the roost coming of his back wheel under breaking, just as much as when he was gassing it out of corners! ;-)

Cool, it's a thread about me. Finally. Glad you guys care so much what I think, problem is you have no fucking idea. If the board was all warn and tingly over anyone as much as #7, I'd be mocking those fanboys too.

It's fanboys that I roll my eyes at not any rider.

I could really give a crap who wins as long as it's an interesting race.

Now, more analysis of me please.
