Wilbur, what MX track in North Texas do you enjoy riding the most?
Oak Hill is high up on my list. Underground is good. I-35 in its prime. And man I miss Nocona.

Nocona was one of the first motocross tracks I went to. That huge step down in the back was pretty fun and there were a lot of fun corners out there.

I didn't realize I-35 was still open. They had a pretty awesome cross country loop cut at one point. I think TCCRA raced out there and it was their loop.

We raced Oak Hill three weekends ago for a cross country series. They ran the track backwards which was pretty fun but it made a lot of the jumps a bit undoable. But the dirt out there is awesome and loamy.

What lakes do you like to fish on and what species do you like to target? We have a lake house on Eagle Mountain and we're mostly only successful out there with sand bass. But I do like to hit up Texoma for some striper and crappie and Benbrook for Crappie and hybrids.

Any kind of bass are fun to catch man! Cat fish put up a great fight as well. I recently caught a blue fin and man that was a blast !!

Ok, Will, one more question: you find a genie bottle and he grants you one wish. Do you choose: a) win a 450 main or b) kick Kevin Kelly square in the nuts. Take your time, think it through and don't rush into anything.

That sounds pretty solid, I like it. Perhaps pop that champagne cork right in the jewels, haha. But all kidding aside, I love listening when you're on DMXS. The back and forth is fun and shows the lighter side of the sport.

Dianna Dahlgren or Mercedes Terrell for Miss Supercross 2016? I'm not talking fact, but who'd put a bigger smile on your face whilst standing on the podium? Grinning

Digging the new choppers. #gotgrille.

When you first jumped on the new bike, what kind of changes did you run through? What's available to change?

Wil is going to need pictures to make a fair determination. And the more the better!

Will, how was it to race Marvin Musquin for the supercross title?

How was the friendship between you and Marvin when it was clear that it was one of you that was going to win the title? Did it become a mental game on and off the track or did both of you keep it friendly?


Can't wait to see you back in 2016!

Man. Bars, levers. Endless suspension options. Diff motor packages and theo can always play with the mapping! It's truly amazing what they can do for me.

It was amazing. We never had any kind of animosity towards one another. Always told each other good job.

It's funny when it came down to it in Vegas, the media had put this weird pressure on us to almost not like each other. And on the gate for the main event we pulled each other aside and said this is stupid. Good luck. We shook hands and on we went.

I truly wish I hadn't had crashed that night. We would have put on one hell of a show.

Lets talk money

I see in another thread on Vital that the one and only Chad Reed is worth $61,000,000. Which of course makes him an investing genius( Im sure he would tell me this if i asked).

When you see Chad at the track does he brag about his net worth? Does he give out any investing knowledge to the younger riders?

Have you Wil been able to sock away any winnings or has it all gone right back into the program (Dr. bills perhaps)?

What do you see yourself doing later in life after you decide to retire from pro racing?

In one scenario, pretend you're financially secure for life and in another scenario, pretend you need a job to pay the bills.

I hope Chad is worth more than that. I think we all deserve what we get. If not more.

Chad carries himself with nothing but someone I look up to when he talks to me etc. I respect him.

I think he would if I asked. All though I lean on Kevin for that.

Yes. I've done okay for myself. Plenty saved and trying to make even more work for me.

no matter my financial situation. I would love to retire and help out a team. Be like a mike Larocco with helping test and be the manager and help the young talents.

When i heard you were doing this I had to make profile!

I know that a lot of the pros train in so-cal. What are your opinions of the area? positives? negatives?


Also, whats the strangest interaction you've had with a fan OFF the track?


If i saw you at the track are you cool with fans coming up to you and saying whats up?

When is Kawasaki going to build a KX250 2 stroke for you to mess around on?

Oh, and is Kawasaki bringing back 2 strokes? Don't lie to me brah, tell me the truth!! If not, then tell them you'll leave them if they don't bring back 2 strokes, do it for us, Wil. THEY WILL LISTEN TO YOU!!

Oh, and congrats on the new teammate, you know exactly who i'm talking about, don't act like you don't know bro. You'll learn A LOT from him Smile
