I know he was real sick but not sure if it was cancer or what. He was real good friends with Caleb Dowell and his family so I'll hit them up and see if they know what Chase is up to now

Just talked to Caleb and he said he hasn't been able to talk to Chase in awhile but the last time he did he wasn't doing very good at all. He was working for his dad and then got really sick, he wasn't sure if it was cancer or what. I know that's probably not the info your looking for but all that Caleb knew

Was he from Ardmore? I was friends with a kid either named Chase Davenport, or Chase Reed who smoked the crap out of everyone on a KTM50 when he was a little kid, but I never could remember. The person I'm thinking about had a little brother named Ty. Not sure if they are the same Chase, but I wonder about them from time to time.

I had a biology class with a girl that was hardcore into moto. She knew her stuff. Turns out she was Reed's long time girlfriend for a while.

He was from Lone Grove (Ardmore area). Don't remember a little brother, but his older brother was killed in a JetSki racing incident.

I guess the kid I'm thinking about had the last name Davenport then, because he only had a little brother. When I started paying attention to the sport again in 2003, I kept wondering if that Chase from down there was him. Totally confused me...

@Bish153, her name was Toni. She talked like they dated for a few years. I believed her, because 1) I'm gullible, and 2) she knew way more about motocross than the average Nitro Circus viewer. That class was in 2007, so I guess it would have been before then.

Grew up racing with Chase since I was about 5 years old. I met a guy a few years back that said he was Chases mechanic and said he really just sat around and did nothing, he never mentioned anything about him being ill though. I remember his brother as well when we were little, he had a kx 80 with kx 60 rims on it because he was so short. I also remember hearing that his dad was also injured pretty bad in a boating accident as well, I seem to remember being told he was sucked through a dam

Man I used to watch chase reed and travis (the terminator) elliot fly around whitney on their kawi 60's and 80's back in the day! That was the jam! I was in 80 begginer class back then and they were my inspiration. Them and charlie bogard. He was the shit with all his sick whips

Not sure if any of you still read this forum but hey.... It's me Chase Reed. first of all not sure what mechanic claimed to be mine and said I just set around.... If anyone knows my father they know that was not an option. I actually came down with a rare kidney disease that almost killed me and put me in bed for over 2 years. Took over 20 drs to find out what it was. Ashamed of my decline in what was labeled ( my calling ) I tried to basically hide from my followers and fans. I'm doin a lot better now after the passing of my son. Which took awhile for me to get over. If you would like to catch up ask anything or just talk I'm on Facebook at Stephen Reed .

Damn man that is hard to hear. Glad you are doing good now buddy! Do you ride anymore? I used to live with your buddy Jay at Cooperland when Kris Brown owned it. I forgot what Jays last name was but he was a cool dude who always had some good stories about your guys times together! Really good to hear that you have made it through some of the things that have been put in front of you. Being a new father myself I can not imagine going through what you had to! Hang in there man and hit me up if you want to talk more!

Glad you posted Stephen, Never knew that was your first name. I met you at an Oklahoma state race along time ago and always wondered where you went. Sorry to hear about Your son, You were the main reason I named my kid Chase. BTW, Jonon What are you doing these days?
1/30/2013 2:28pm
I'm very honored you would name your child after me! My sons name was auston gauge reed. He was perfect it was hospital error. Thanks for your condolences! An good to hear from you josh! Been so long I've seen u on tv some, still rippin it up. I play the guitar and sing now. Actually got a few things goin for me through it. Had an offer to start riding again and training/teaching others which I would love to do! But the promoter just used my name to get customers and left me out in the cold once it started.. I did ride a little a few months back, guess it really doesn't ever leave ya Smile 1 lap after 8 yrs and I was throwing it sideways and railin corners haha. I did have quite a few ppl in line to train but like I said I got used on that deal.... Talk about degrading :-/

I would be more than happy to throw you some dough to work with my son someday. You walked over to me after a vet A moto at cooperland( the announcer had been talking about me showing up from a dirttrack national the night before) you smacked me on the back and said, Not bad for a circle burner, I lmao and downed about 8 high lifes on the way home that night. BTW, I hope you are at peace over your son and damn sure hope that hospital got what they deserved. Truly awesome to hear from you.

Sorry to hear about your loss and health issues.

I enjoyed watching you rip it up in your younger days.

Keep the faith and do your best with what you can.

Good luck.

Hey Chase, had to say hello.. we had some great battles over the years... too many to remember... Super sorry to hear about the lose of your son... Im a father now, 3 year old son named Race. I couldnt even imagine going through something like that. Again, my deepest condolences. Hope as is well man, best of luck with everything.
1/30/2013 4:58pm
Hey thank you all it makes me feel good to know you all still care. My mxrs where a second family for me. Most of the friends I had/have came from those days. I'm in good health now. And I have gotten over my losses at least to the point of moving on. Things like that don't fade from memory... But it has brought me closer to god somehow. I'm no perfect person ive had my share of mistakes. I'd love for you guys to add me on Facebook so we can keep in touch better. Stephen Reed is what You'll look for. Whether we know each other or not, add me. I can say I have changed quite abit since then and its all for the better! You guys rock and it was so cool to hear back so quickly! Sorry I left all my old fans and friends hanging and wandering... I was ashamed even though I couldn't help my circumstances. Much love everyone!!!

Chase I'm glad to hear you are feeling better and are still doing some riding. Just another guy on here wishing you the best in the future and I am really sorry to hear about what happened with your son. Stick around and shoot the shit out of moto with us every once in a while. Some pretty good times on this board ( sometimes ) Smile

Chase, remember doing the Nationals in 2001 in Bobby Reagan's rig with Eric Vallejo? Then you might remember me! I drove the rig and wrenched on Eric's bike. I remember you annoying the crap out of me most times but still a few good memories from that summer. Most notably going to Windham's house with you and riding Eric's bike all week then getting the rig stuck on K-Dub's front lawn. Glad to hear you're doing better!
