Nope, met him at thunder valley, i have a pic of my sons with him at thunder valley and my eldest is 5'9" tall and fights at 168. They are basically the same size, as alex walks around at 175. Im 5'11" and 250 and i was a much much larger person than him. In the real world he is not big. He would squash poto though

I don't care if MX216 is Weston's father. I saw the dude yesterday at a distance of about 24" away and he's shorter than I am.

He can be anyone he wants i know how tall i am and how tall and how my son is. Now
If ya ask his mom she'll tell ya hes 5'11" and this, despite him standing next to me
And noticeably shorter. I guess some parents want their kids to be taller. When im back from motogp ill post a pick and u can be the judge. Btw. Pieck was the nicest guy we met and was very very kind to my boys.

Wth does size have to do with anything? jason is a faster rider than Pieck. If you think otherwise you are mistaken! Jason is not great at setting good practice laps or qualifying times but like Reed is a main event racer. This year he has had the speed but has had a string of bad luck.

Pieck laps have been faster at most races this year if im not mistaken

I didn't mean height , I meant weight. I'm not sure exactly what he is weighing at the moment , but I would roughly guess between 190-200lbs. He's a thick dude. And considering the work Weston has to put in to stay at those weights is pretty incredible. And if I remember right , he has been up around the 260lb mark before , possibly heavier. That's where the " Big guy " thing roots from , dude has shoulders like a linebacker.

I don't buy 260. If he was all muscle like most claim, he would be losing 70 lbs of muscle, virtually impossible.

I'd be shocked if he was more than 185.

Ok well you guys go ahead and believe what you want. And uptite many people have already told you this before. Your dislike for someone that doesn't even know you is pretty sad. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself i guess.

Since your average pro MXer goes about 150, Pieck is a giant amongst midgets or maybe just a giant midget.

The only truly chunky top rider I can recall is Jo Jo Keller and calling him "top rider" is a stretch.

partridge is 6'3" dude is tall. de dyker is supposedly 6'3" as well but i think his weird riding style and dropped elbows make him look even taller on the bike.

I asked the guy and he said he's never been 260 a day in his life. I have no dislike for the guy, he actually a good guy to talk to, I just don't get the herd mentality that goes on at VITAL about some things, and this is one.

The herd mentality? I don't think that's what you should consider calling it. All these top riders have a fan base and most fans back many , many different riders. The reason why a lot of guys back Weston is because he's done something that hardly ANYONE has ever done in the past. He didn't come up through the LL's stuff ! No he cut his teeth as a privateer for like 3yrs strait and earned his spot. THAT , is rare , very rare!

Two years ago Weston was fighting as a privateer in the LCQ's almost every weekend. There have been races this year where he's posted top 3 in qualifying times. That right there is a huge leap. And don't throw me any bullshit dude , you know damn well that you have been one of the most vocal on this site to discredit what he's he's done. Not only here , but the other site ( you know which one I'm talking about ).

And about his weight , dude if you don't believe me just go up and ask him! You say you did , but I'm calling bullshit because they don't don't even know who you are. 260 was conservative in fact. He's had to work his ass off to keep his weight in check.

The weight thing is besides the point. Weston has made HUGE progress over the past 2yrs , and you make it a point to come into every single thread and say something like " I don't understand why people are fan's of his? "

Who gives a shit fr who we cheer for , and why does it matter to you?

@Uptite........So I just got off the phone with Lou. Weston doesn't ever remember talking to you. AND,,,,,remember when I said I was being conservative with Weston's weight at 250lbs? Well guess what? Weston came in at 268lbs at the age of 15yrs old

So yeah , that's another reason why I cheer for the guy! Anyone who can keep his weight down that much and be at the very top in this sport , deserves every bit of credit thrown his way. Just thought I'd put this info up for you in case you really wanted to know.

Phil Lawrence, Sean Hamblin, Ivan Tedesco and Jeremy Mcgrath. Not that rare. Lots of guys have worked hard to get a ride not everyone is a top amateur when they come to the sport.

Pretty funny this thread has turned into a measuring contest of whittle whackers. The MO for dirt bike riders is not size of 150 etc. It's they are crazy hardworking athletes who push hard on a dirt bike. Without a specific size. From martins size to partridge it leant matter. They are all bad dudes. If you want take outs, we were at a local race with some sx guys racing outdoors. Guys were swatting at front brake levers third gear pinned before 60 foot triples. That is sketchy and a takeout. Good grief

You are underestimating the weight he carries in his legs and ass. He's a dense, thick dude. I'm 6'0, 205 and people often under guess my weight (because I'm not fat). Muscle is dense and Weston's build lends it to naturally carry at lot of muscle weight in his lower body. I'd definitely put him at 190-200 lbs and could definitely see him at ~210-220 lbs if not in race shape or on diet.

Jeffro, you need to relax before you give yourself a heart attack. I have never, eversaid I knew the guy, I don't, but I did talk to him at a race and he told me he has never weighed over 220 sinse he turned pro.

260 at 15 is believable, he was probably pretty fat kid. But when people say he was all muscle and that big, I don't believe it.
