Most popular two stroke rider?

From a social media perspective, considering views, followers, influencer, who would you say are the current and relative top 2 stroke riders? 

Don't have to be "racers", but riders that have a tremendous amount of followers, views, etc. (and legit riders).

125/250?

GO!

The only one I follow who rides 2-strokes regularly is Carson Brown. I’m sure there’s more out there, but he’s the only one I follow.

I'm not sure about "most popular" but Matt Burkeen has a pretty nice youtube following

Carson Brown, Stankdog, and Burkeen are about the only regulars I follow. I’d like to think Stankdog was kind of the OG with the 2 Stankin series in 2016. It was more than just a guy shredding a two stroke.

You're a week late, his last video he's transitioning back to a 4 stroke for SuperEnduro.  You need to wait until next Spring to make this statement again. Tongue

I'd probably give it to Carson Brown and he'd probably be an awesome guy to work with given his background and attitude too. I know that isn't the focus of the question but it has to help doesn't it? And he does rip...

If I wanted a guy to race one at a high level it'd be a short list of Carson Brown, Matty B or Jared Lesher, he was impressive in Supercross.

If you can talk Alessio Chiodi into it he was a beast at Foxhill the other week, looked like he'd never been away!

That Hamish Harwood lad (oz or NZ?) looked like he could work a two stroke at Washougal as well.

I'm going to get downvoted to hell for this, but going off of the sheer numbers it's Ronnie Mac...

Stew from 20 years ago. Anytime a clip or photo pops up of him on 125s I can't look away. @stewartfanclub

It's been two decades, but the dude is still the best two-stroke rider ever. And golly gee wiz, he was fun to watch. Aggression personified. Glad I got to witness some of that magic in person.

Surratts original account was around 100k I believe. It was stolen and he had to start over

Fortunately there "may" be a way to settle this at Arenacross......

Racing era.  Mc in 250 SX    James on 125 for SX and Mx.   RC in MX any year till 04.  Enduro.  Hard to beat Graham Jarvis. Original King of Hard Enduro.  Precision. He almost 50 years old now still finishes top 5 against youngsters.
