I'm well aware of Kevin's two Regional Titles. The OP was referring to National Championships.
I can’t believe that it took this long for Reynard to even get a mention……

If you’re looking at GPs, I think Marniq Bervoets has to be on the list at least.
And Jaraslov Falta but he perhaps one of the more justifiable people deserving an asterisk in the sport.
Casey Johnson and David Pingree both on course at various points in their careers.
David came the closest with his showdown with Shae Bentley in 2000 (West).
Casey looking very good for a while in 1999 (West devision - team mate Casey Lytle also a legit threat) before getting landed on at one of the later Anaheims and wrecking his shoulder. Nathan Ramsey won the title.
Both David and Casey less good outdoors but still in the top 3 here and there from time to time during their careers.
Yeah. Came very close in 1996 but then got protested on fuel by Honda/Everts. I don't know if that made the difference but I remember him being very bitter in an interview with DBR ((British MX magazine) at the end of the year.

I didn't even think about Steve Wise, but he should be number one on the list. Wins in 125 & 250 nationals, 250 SX wins, Superbike road race wins, Superbikers wins and flat track podiums, there wasn't a motorcycle made that guy couldn't ride the wheels off of.

If we are talking not winning only US titles, Tortelli wins hands down. He was handing Carmichael his ass in 1999 before Doug Henry landed on him and broke his arm.

Chris pourcel would qualify with that criteria
The Beast from the East.
Nah... Too stinky....
Austin Forkner.
Talking about the troll bait being too stinky. Just to clarify....

Can't believe I forgot Bimbo 😬
@yardsailor FYI. Donny Schmit's titles:
AMA 125cc Western SX - 1986
FIM World Champion 125cc - 1990
FIM World Champion 250cc - 1992
Jeremy Seewer, Marniq Bervoets
1997 125 East SX Champ….without winning even 1 race. Consistency pays….along with Ricky and Roncada taking dirt samples too often…
JYD'S got to be right up there. Runner up 3 times in MX. 2x 250 and 1x 125.
@JustMX has some great answers, he captured several I was thinking of.
Goat Breker might belong on that list too.
Cole seely gotta be up there.
Robbie Reynard
Brock Sellards
I was thinking Pourcel also, but he won 250 East SX titles in 2009 and 2010.
Shane Mcelreth was consistently up front in the 250 class, but never got it done.
