“Chase be doing anything” he really do be doing anything forreal
I would JETT & hunters bikes handle amazing. Too many electrical plugs on these bikes. Brutal hit though, I know that feeling I hit a steep ramp for a triple & the back wheel shot to the sky . At the highest point & the front wheel below me I bailed. Landed on hard pack ok, then the bike is doing hyper 360,s it snapped me in the lower leg good & I blew my acl. Pedro’s 95 sx bike pneumatic quick shock rebound & butter forks. Initial shock is that your going die or wheel chair. Today yet my shock has to hv slow rebound . Last yr my shock kicked me sideways off jumps it threw my confidence off hitting jump faces it was so bad. I got a revalve but 5 1/2 months of injections didn’t do much , so I didn’t ride yet & weather sucks yet. I quit a lot of trucking jobs ovr dangerous equipment. & should’ve quit others sooner then I wouldn’t hv all my disk in my neck blown out , some in my back, blow 2 nerves out of my shoulder, etc, etc.
I don’t quite see the brake stall that others see…. It looks like an old school kill switch failure. Can that even happen today?

KNEW IT!
Where have you been??
I definitely feel sorry for him now. He is so tough and amazing to watch ride. Prayers sent
At least Chase got Profeshenal to jump in on the conversation.
Welcome Back!!!!
Of course but this is not a come try day, nor is it, or shouldn't be, a poorly tuned bike.
Edit: please see the screenshot of Chases's comment 🤞
agreed, look like it died when he hit the brake from this angle,
It isnt his ankles that are the size of basketballs...
Fuel boiling will make it lean out and lose power for a moment too
Dude my first thought too! Profesh is back?
would be crazy if that’s the last we see of him on green.
I had a wristpin circlip break in my 79 RM125 and it fell into the crank and jammed it. Locked up in the air. Over the bars at 20 feet up, snapped my left femur when I hit, The good old days.
Nice to see you back.
Who in their right mind has a '79 RM125 twenty feet up?
38mm forks ain't made for that! 😄
Chase has a disproportionate amount of freak accident crashes that are not his fault. like the rock that jammed his throttle wide open, the front brake locking up during outdoors last year, now bike randomly cutting out over a massive jump
Pit Row
He could have stalled the motor when he hit the rear brake.
I so abused that thing. I was 18, maybe 125 lbs and I didn’t really know much about anything. Oh - this jump landed to flat too.
Brother, brake tapping is as second nature to Chase Sexton as wiping his ass.
Your brain doesn’t just completely short out while straight jumping that jump. That jump is big enough to have his attention, he didn’t just black out.
😂
Sounds like a recipe for a two-piece frame. 😄
I have flashbacks of flat-landing my '78 YZ125 - it always felt like my feet were bent into upside-down "U"s. 😁
I'm convinced I'd be 6" taller if I hadn't tried jumping bikes back in the '70s. 😆
Did you finally break out of the back of the trailer that the Russian mob has kept you in cuz you were banging one of their chicks? We’ve missed you Pro!!
We started a GoFundMe and paid his ransom. 👍
Brother, he is human and humans make mistakes. Tomac crashed in sx this year when he mashed his rear brake so I don't really see this as being all that far off or implausible.
That bike died when he tapped the brake. So either he didn't pull that clutch lever in far enough or long enough, or one of the mechanics, who are all just as tuned in as Chase, didn't reassemble that motorcycle properly. Routing a clutch cable is as second nature to that mechanic as wiping his ass. One can assume that the clutch was at least partially operational since he rode the bike off the track. TLDR, someone f%$#ed up and we don't know who and probably never will.
Deleted... I originally posted a link from the top of Chase's X page where he said an injury was ending his season.
It turns out that the post was last September. I didn't see the date. He hasn't posted to his X page since last year.
He did not post that the injury today is ending his season.
I prob shoulda broke that frame but I was a skinny little shit and I broke my femurs first.
Check the date.
Someones stirring the pot.
Glad he is speaking up a little. Deserves to have his side at least be known.
