How does a 38 yr old retired pro make a living racing  a dirtbike?

Maybe he's using the dirt bike to ride helmetless from trailer park to trailer park to sell meth?

Why not supply the serial number of the said stolen bike, that's a red flag in itself.

Came here for pros’s novel and it could possibly be his best work yet 

That’s a condensed version bro.  I left out in a room of the ada,s people. I said I want to see arrest warrants where my finger is on the table next Thursday. My day off. Or I,m calling my south Phily mob pals and where going to do it the right way.  Next week arrest warrants where on the table.  But a f ing elite judge x military of course says I can file a civil suit .  The attorney only cost 20k to start . The rat  Fargo co was my last yr to time out to file a claim.  Every week I would say I need to make money to get a attorney etc. I only made 810 gross .  F ing jokers say your load in Jersey won’t b ready for 48 hrs go 2 the McDonald’s truck stop . Haha u f ing stupid bitch.  Parked in jersey Real bad area razor wire on all fences . I put my id & 25 bucks in my pocket  & walk to a scummy Italian st side express restaurant. And hang out I Love Jersey people. I did all kinds of pipeline & utility construction there & all ovr tge ne cities.  I blew my knee out in Jersey in 96 hhg drilling inder  the river. After the high pain faded I looked up and stared at tge twin towers .  I had a double date in 2000 & had dinner on the top floor.  My mob pal covered the bill.  I was in town to see 2 surgeons for the knee I hurt again.  Hit a 76,s play off game , Penn st relays too.  I was building a prison at the time haha. My pal goes back to 94 the guy I gave a 50  mil check to so we could get our rig out of hauck in the Phily airport . A Huge strike ended 4 us.   Pay him 250k a week for the for the 6 months we worked in the area.  If u ever here the name Waldo or LA - laughing Anthony in Jersey or Phily that’s me. Basically I always hated thieves once your life gets totally fucked you really hate them.

Wow, very good information. 

I’m like most people that would’ve never suspected JLaw of being that generous, and making absolutely no show about it.

Awesome 

I remember that Jason sent 20k to Danny. 

Sure he went down the wrong road but he is a down to earth dude who will help you out if he is able to. He has a good heart.

Dungey is my favorite rider ever. So that should let you know what I think of JLaw. That said, some of you really hate the guy. Did he let you down personally by not achieving what he should of in his careers? Anyone got real evidence he's actively using drugs? He's was training at KDub's for LL, you think Kevin was letting a drug addict at his place? Look, he's an idiot and didn't have insurance. No surprise there. Don't donate to his GoFundMe. I know I won't. Any real reason to tear the dude apart? Dude loves riding like the rest of us. Some of you just seem so filled with hate sometimes. Let it go

I'm looking for opportunity in the IT field specific to WAN design, management, and support, experienced with Azure, AWS, legacy MPLS, SD-WAN. Let me know if you can help? Or I'll just setup a GFM because that seems like an easier route. 

Just kidding! I love JLaw, and his IG videos.

He also gets quite a bit from contingency money. I wouldn't think it would be enough to live on though.

At this rate he will have a bike by Saturday. Hopefully he takes a extra couple of hundred and insures this one. 😂 

Unless Kawasaki lifts the stop sale, he will not be buying another Kawasaki soon.

Was the bike stolen from his residence or his vehicle while being transported or some other situation?

Sad deal. He's been spotted on Farm 14 and The Reeds. He comes off as living a hard life, but genuinely loves helping the sport, and the kids. It's too bad someone in his life didn't step-up and point him in the right direction when he was younger. He would be a different person if he had a mentor who stuck with him through his career and life.

Good for him for using the power of social media to get money for a new bike. If you didn’t donate then why care?

He could still use someone to give him some direction. He's not even 40yrs old. If he doesn't have money for a bike what's he going to do the rest of his life?

I don’t care that he made a GFM page for himself, even if it is a bit cringey. I do have issue with RacerX promoting it. Don’t have to look very far for better causes to spotlight. 

Good for Jlaw if he’s on the straight and narrow.

I don't see much hate in this thread, just A LOT of grown adults calling out another "grown adult" for wanting handouts to buy a dirt bike, when he doesn't have a real job. That's all. If a dirt bike is your sole source of income, and you aren't good enough to get free bikes, that should be a wake up call. 

I am all for the guy living a clean life and "needing" a bike to keep him out of trouble, but if it was that important, he'd get a real job and ride a couple times a week like the rest of us. 

That's what the "hate" is about.

He should have been smart enough with his racing income that this would never be an issue. He probably could have worked out a deal with a contract to get bikes for life, didn't "Chicken" do that? I think someone from 80's/90's moto gets a new bike every 2 or 3 years and they just trade in the last bike they were given.

That's harder to do than you think. Guys like RC, McGrath or Villopoto are getting free bikes because it's part of their pay plan. They are actively employed or contracted by the company they are with. I have a feeling the Triumphs, Kawasakis and Yamahas are going to dry up if those agreements end, however. From a goodwill standpoint, I bet some guys still have good friends in the loaner pool departments of the OEMs they rode for and are able to capitalize on it, but I'd be willing to bet the Japanese guys back home don't know about it. Or at least turn a blind eye to it. Also, things change as those people retire or move to other OEMs / other industries. 
Unless the rider has an active, ongoing agreement, it's not easy to borrow a $10,000 machine for a year and return it all beaten up. (Much less 2-3 years.) I don't see guys like Johnny O, Guy Cooper, Ezra Lusk or Larry Ward getting free bikes without a whole lot of sweet talk and maybe even some kind of obligations to the company.

Guy Air Time Cooper The Coolest Mx racer ever. For the young guys that don’t know he traveled to the Nationals in a olds cutless car pulling a bike trailer , not a enclosed trailer . With his wife in 87 on a cr125 Rocket ship.  His choice of bike today is a 05 CR125 .  I had 3 bikes stolen in 13 we’ll 1 bike was missing the forks& swingarm. A 06 with 5 hrs another 06 like new & my stroker crank 04.  4 1/2 yrs later I got 2 arrested . Happened at a Real bad time account was cleaned out from a bad 1 yr full recovery

Elbow surgery . I went back to work 6+ months . 2 bikes where setup on a 15k loan from a trucker pal that owned co.s. to set me up in ND. I had a 380k contract job in oil field hhg drilling.  No 1 helped & my family I think there where happy it happened, Real mean screwed up bunch. I ended up doing Chicago railyards in a dead economy a co that was ovr a billion in debt .  Everyone bitches about a million he had . After taxes that’s 375k , not enough to retire on at 55 . And for sure not at 22 .  I worked at numerous co.s trying to some dough to afford bikes & race b4 I,m dead.  Took another loan out to get to Tx. Oil fields , made nothing . I went to the Chicago Russian 1099 mob next because they run super illegal.  I got .5 more because he couldn’t find a driver that knew how to drive a stick. Total pike of shit I got bed bug bite scares & pneumonia & bronchitis from exhaust & burning anti freeze . I said I need a dr & I,m going home. They said No your not.  22 guys showed up put there shades on looked at me then opened a trailer & looked at the ceiling then me.  A driver was just found severely beaten , hands tied behind his back and was hung in a trailer in Chicago.  I got my knife & we got into it .  I did a horrible w2 co after that lied about the pay not .65 & 68 mph. .40 taxed & .10 not taxed 62 mph . C19 happened no one wears having orientation except for a couple 1099 chicago co.s .  I worked 9 1/2 months straight no day off . Except for er room in March 2019 . I trained a black x con murder then a brain dead military guy then quit training.  Retaliation was brutal I had to give up a 1/2 decent trk & drive a f ing pile . 99% of loads went to Jersey I was the only guy doing that . I made 40k 6 days off the whole yr. I had to take a loan against my life insurance I had since 95. I couldypsy it back . So now I can’t die. Late 2019 c19 co.s started hiring. I said f w2 co.s if I ever want to ride it has to be a 1099 Chicago mob co.  I,m on my 11th there all Soo dangerous. And rip you off 400-500k is owed . My plan of the iL. Labor dept doing there job and getting my money failed . I,ve dealt with  failed system since I was 4 yrs old getting extreme beatings & the state doing nothing.  Most 3 inches shorter in aprox 2/ 2 1/2 yrs on 1099 trks, hundreds on injections , need neck, back, hip, shoulder surgeries.  Dead economy for 3+ yrs = no income.  Easily ovr a million on denied work claims .  More physical than jackhammering it feels like 200 hrs straight every day . I ran 60 hrs straight in a tanker doing the ne . I was a big time bball star got f ,d & had to quit to pay rent at 16.  I want a state championship now b4 I die or something.  And show I can earn more on a bike than driving a truck.  That’s easy because u don’t get paid for your 149 hr week.  

I needed some AI for that one...

Here’s a cleaned-up and more readable version of the story:
Guy Cooper, nicknamed “Air Time,” is regarded as one of the coolest motocross (MX) racers ever. For those unfamiliar with his story, back in 1987, he traveled to the Nationals with his wife in an Oldsmobile Cutlass, pulling a bike trailer—not even an enclosed one. He raced on a CR125, which he referred to as a “rocket ship.” Even today, Cooper’s bike of choice is an ’05 CR125.
The writer shares their own struggles, recounting how they had three bikes stolen in 2013—one missing its forks and swingarm, another was a nearly-new ’06 model with only five hours on it, and the third was an ‘04 with a stroker crank. After 4.5 years, two arrests were made related to the thefts. This happened during a tough period when the writer was recovering from elbow surgery that required a full year for recovery. Their finances were wiped out, and they had to borrow $15,000 from a trucker friend who owned companies to set up work in North Dakota’s oil fields. They secured a $380,000 contract job in oil field drilling but received no support from family, whom they describe as mean-spirited.
When the economy crashed, the writer ended up working in Chicago rail yards for a company that was over $1 billion in debt. They mention how people complain about earning $1 million but explain that after taxes, it’s only $375,000—hardly enough to retire on at age 55, let alone at 22. The writer worked various jobs trying to save money for bikes and racing before they pass away.
They took another loan to work in Texas oil fields but made no money there either. Eventually, they turned to working with Chicago-based 1099 companies they describe as “super illegal.” One harrowing experience involved bed bug bites, pneumonia, bronchitis from exhaust fumes, and burning antifreeze. When they asked for medical attention and said they wanted to go home, they were threatened by 22 men who showed up wearing sunglasses and intimidating them. They recount how another driver was found beaten severely and hung in a trailer in Chicago. The writer armed themselves with a knife and had a confrontation.
Afterward, they worked for another company that lied about pay rates and truck speeds. During COVID-19 (C19), few companies were hiring except for some dangerous 1099 Chicago firms. They worked nine-and-a-half months straight without days off except for an ER visit in March 2019. They trained new drivers but eventually quit training due to retaliation from coworkers and management.
By late 2019, as COVID-19 hiring increased, the writer decided to stick with risky 1099 trucking jobs because it was the only way they could save money to ride motocross again. Over time, they’ve worked for 11 different companies—all dangerous—and claim they’ve been cheated out of $400–500K in wages. Attempts to recover this money through Illinois labor authorities failed.
The writer reflects on their long history of dealing with systemic failures since childhood when extreme beatings went unaddressed by authorities. Their health has deteriorated significantly due to trucking work: neck, back, hip, and shoulder injuries requiring surgery; hundreds of injections; and physical strain comparable to jackhammering nonstop for hours every day.
They dream of achieving something meaningful before they die—like winning a state championship or proving they can earn more from motocross racing than trucking. They lament the reality of working unpaid overtime during grueling 149-hour weeks as a truck driver.


This version retains the original story’s details while improving readability and structure for clarity.

Came here for pros’s novel and it could possibly be his best work yet 

ChatGPT translation haha:


This is a personal story that is somewhat fragmented and difficult to follow, but here’s a general summary:


 

The writer is discussing Guy “Air Time” Cooper, a well-known motocross racer, recalling how he traveled to races in 1987 with his wife, pulling a bike trailer with an Oldsmobile Cutlass, rather than using an enclosed trailer. The writer admires Cooper and mentions that Cooper’s current bike of choice is a 2005 CR125.


 

The writer then shifts to their own life experiences, detailing a series of challenges, including:

• Having three motorcycles stolen in 2013, including a custom-built 2004 model.

• Suffering a major financial loss and dealing with a one-year recovery from elbow surgery.

• Taking out a $15,000 loan from a trucker friend to set up work in North Dakota, where they had a $380,000 contract job in the oil field.

• Feeling abandoned by family, who they believe were “happy it happened.”

• Struggling in the trucking industry, working for companies with major debt in a poor economy.

• Being involved with Chicago trucking companies with alleged ties to the Russian mob, dealing with unsafe conditions, low pay, and violence.

• Encountering physical danger, including being threatened by a group of men after saying they needed a doctor.

• Witnessing the murder of a driver who was found beaten and hung inside a trailer.

• Experiencing harsh working conditions, including exhaustion, illness (pneumonia, bronchitis), bed bug infestations, and extreme physical labor.

• Feeling cheated out of hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid wages from Chicago 1099 trucking companies.

• Struggling with physical injuries and needing multiple surgeries (neck, back, hip, shoulder).

• Facing a dead economy for over three years, leading to extreme financial distress.

• Claiming that the Illinois Labor Department failed to help recover his unpaid earnings.

• Recalling a difficult childhood, suffering beatings that authorities failed to intervene in.

• Mentioning that he was a talented basketball player but had to quit at 16 to pay rent.

• Expressing a desire to win a motocross state championship before he dies and to prove he can earn more racing bikes than trucking.

Overall, the writer’s post is an emotional and intense account of personal struggles, financial hardship, physical suffering, and a desire for redemption through motocross racing.

Yeah, that’s gonna go great for whoever hires him. The guy is entertaining, he was really fast, but I wouldn’t hire him for anything. 

How would a normal working day look like with him? Might show up, might not. Might work productively, but probably not. How many weeks (fractional answers are ok) do you think he’d make it through without some sort of crisis? Again, he was a great rider, I loved watching him ride, but he’s never shown any consistent signs of self motivation, appreciation, discipline or respect.

Kind of hope he raises enough for two bikes with the way everyone’s so upset about it, lol

So we can all assume you donated?

Who gives af if he donated?  It's none your business what another person does with their money.
