Reed could also be a little jet lagged as well , he's done ridden 1st rd of his new series here, went to the Mxon, to the Us for vegas and now flying back here to ride rd2 of the superx series all in the last few weeks as well as setting up a new bike, meeting new sponsor's, doing Tv interview's for his series in Oz.

No but he's not promoting anything on the other side of the world using his own money and time either.

Haha spoken by someone who obviously has done bugger all, if any, long haul flights.

Bit of a difference between a 4-5 hour flight and 14 hours flying then an hour on terra firma then another 8-10 hours flying and changing more than a couple hours in time zones. Try it one day then get back to me.

truth is.....lay off reed...

he's great, but racing the most talented two wheel racer ever next to rossi. what's he supposed to do?

rc would be dominated by james at this point. he doesn't have the natural talent to match him now that james is fully in his prime.

Its the exact same as you's all bashing Reed. So come on. Lets start bashing nicky hayden. Oh no. Wait. he is one of your own, of course you wont bash him.

I cant believe people bash Reed, because he 'cant' beat Bubba. I mean, come on, Hes currently the 2nd faster supercross rider in the world. You might aswell start bashing Tedesco, short, Ferry, because they can't keep up with Reed.

Grow Up!
People dont bash reed because he cant beat James, its his attitude. Its the things he says that make most people not like him. He make up excuses for everything, lies.
If he wasnt injured and on his death bed, it was his bike that sucked.

OK so what is the whole thread about then? Why was it started. Ok fair enough if it was "i cant believe reed whinged about that". But its not. It's bashing him saying its going to be a long year because he won't beat bubba. Correct?

You need to pull your head out of James ass. Think about it. Chad just does 20 laps of sx, something goes wrong, and then within a minute of getting off the bike, he has cameras and microphones in his face. Why should he be fake like every other rider and lie and say everything was perfect it was his mistake, when it wasnt.

Im pretty certain that if your bike broke, in the most prestigious supercross championship in the world, and you had cameras and mic's in your face instantl, you wouldnt put on a happy face.

In reality. Of course is james is happy on the podium. because he wins. And of course the likes of ferry, short, byrne, hill are happy on the podium. Because they got 3rd. Which is like a win to them. Because there not on the same level.

So for Chad to finish 2nd. Im sure he's happy. But he knows he has a better chance at beating James then anyone esle does, so of course he's going to be bummed.

Injured and on his death bed? Man. He goes through hell when he rides in pain with his shoulder etc. Look at James. A stomach bug and he cant ride. Millsaps a cold and he cant ride. Has Chad ever sat out a race from a cold or tummy bug? No. He wont even sit out a race with a seperated shoulder or broken hand. Chad will always be tougher, stronger more determined than James. All he has to do is find that extra half a second and he will be running with james week in week out.

Why don't we bash you R-acer. Because we dont like your attitude, we don't like the things you say?

believe me. Im no noob.

Just some of you yanks cant appreciate other riders coming into your series, and bringing something else to the series. I mean. I think even if Reed stood there and said it was all his fault blah blah, you's would still find a way to bash him.

You all pick out the tiniest little things. Ok you might not like his attitude. Fair enough. But its like the guy cant say 1 word without everyone jumping to conclusions and smashing the poor guy.

I bet if he wasn't Australian it would all be a different story. I mean, come on, Bubba says something wrong, and theres maybe 1 thread about it. And its forgotten. Chad says 1 word, and theres already 10 threads about him. Get over it.

In reality im sure 75% of us all have the same attitude as him, so dont be hypocrites. Give him a break.

Oh i agree Whitey. That's why in my posts i only say some of you yanks etc. I know there are a lot of decent people out there that can see through all this bullshit by the people who have nothing better to do.

Jean Michele Bayle took some serious stick during his time in the US, I imagine the forums would be smoking had there been internet back then.

Bubba is immense for sure, but I really don't know what you guys see in James that RC didn't have?

Have you ever spoken to Chad?

Or are you just forming an opinion on internet gossip and online magazine interviews?

I have no idea what it's like to ride a bike at the pace Chad does (or any other pro for that matter) but if he says the wouldn't turn then it probably didn't. And that was the 07 anyway.

Most Yamaha riders complained about the 07 but gave praise to the 08 and guess what Chad won the championship on an 08.

Lies? you are seriously deranged.

I bet you've got knee sliders on those sexy leathers of yours.

Don't worry mate, as soon as someone else comes along, Bubba will be bashed. His time is now in the spot light but it will be short lived me thinks in the minds of the forum racers!! Like someone mentioned, yeah if Reed was American, this wouldn't be an issue, Bubba would be the devil incarnate! Wait for RV to come up and mark my words...

Why do some people keep saying and thinking that because Reed is not American people dont like him? seriously? I dont doubt there an exception here or there, but thats not it. I live in Canada, do I really care where a rider is from? NO.
And I dont think most people care either. besides, doesnt reed live in Florida?

Listening to Reed speak in an interview is enough to make most people cringe.

A long year for reed?
How about the other 18 guys on the track.
Or the guys that bust thier ass and get a gas card.
RV & 250f guys are going to be a huge x factor.
