"How much do they get paid?!" Colby Raha has a serious opinion about Supercross rider pay... Gyps... 

Agreed!

I love peacock

@@kurk23peacock sucks 🐓

Peacock is pretty good

Don’t know about other country’s but peacock isn’t available in Aus

Shows like The Moto: Inside the Outdoors would be great.

I agree I myself a moto guy never watched a single race of f1 but after the Netflix series I watch f1 every weekend now I’m sure with all the drama that goes around sx and Mx they have enough to make a couple of seasons.

Lmao. F1 was never nishe like motocross or supercross🤣

Motocross and Off-Road motorsports are generally way behind asphalt/tarmac motorsports when it comes to development, budget and fan base. This is hill-billie sport that attracts that type of demographic. It's hard to grow anything when there is no incentive to grow. There is more drama and development in amateur karting than in Pro Motocross and Supercross. When you start working in the industry and you see how things are dealt with and what arrangements and contracts are signed and then you compare that to asphalt racing, it makes moto look like a bunch of middle school kids are running the series.

Lol.. F1 is huge outside the US.. Drive to Survive just opened up the US market to F1… What killed Mx/Sx are UTV’s… that’s where all the money is going… family’s are going and Buying a UTV for the family instead of dirt bikes and quads…

They can sell their own merch can’t they? I mean I know roczen and ciancirillo had there own website that they were selling there own merch. Some of them are getting into RU-vid which is dope.

He would do absolutely horrific, you obviously don’t get the difference between hitting a jump tapped fifth wide and hard enduro lmao 🙈 a 5 year enduro rider is 1000 better then Colby could ever be nice try tho

He wouldn't do well

@@Hunterevans15 I only rode hard enduro, and a lot of the motor cross guys that decide to give things a shot end up being pretty darn impressive in my next of the woods.

@@Hunterevans15 lmaooo okay troll, that’s the silliest opinion I’ve ever seen. Skill on a bike is skill on a bike and can transfer to any discipline with practice. I’ve seen dudes who never ride woods but rail on the track do a woods race and place top 5 easy. But take a woods guy and a lot of them don’t translate to the track speed

@@coreyploof217 lmfao that is so hilarious and if you think about it that’s stupid… every single high level woods racer can fucking shred a track in there sleep blind folded with ease and not break a sweat.. get a moto hoe on a woods track put him behind the women and kids cause he’s frying his clutch and stuck on the first hill.. that being said I’m not even talking about hard enduro you have to be a trials world champ to even be decent and be able to climb a mountain like a goat on a motocrcycle literally and those guys are the only ones on the planet who can do even attempt that shit NOT woods riders and definitely not moto bros and long jump riders Hahahha you my friend are so utterly and entirely lost and ignorant

this is the first interview of his I've watched, and I am shocked on how well spoken he is... I always saw him as a talented punk on a dirt bike. I've gained a lot of respect for him

So GOAT bro

Link is in the description

@@GYPSYTALES Thanks mate.

No, there not, do the manufacturers make bikes to RACE,,or do gay backflips,

It’s called a acura nsx 100k plus

Everywhere else in the world it was badged and sold as the Honda NSX. It's only marketed as an Acura in North America.

Yep inthe 80s there weren't many Motorcycle Stuntmem or Motorcycle Freestylers and the ones that existed sold out cheap to be " famous " it screwed us all ! The promoters took advantage of this and didn't care about anything except making money ! Everyone that made money from Motorcycle Freestyle should feel extremely lucky and grateful because we didn't make much getting it started. . I'm stoked at the progression of the riding and the big paydays !

Wym? Amateur moto is huge

The mx amateur scene literally has hundreds of thousands of kids, men, women that's never been the problem!!! Think about this tho bc this is reality, if you look at just the 250/450 A/B class riders (those are usually the top amateur classes), so let's say there is 200 riders across the country maybe 25 of them get a chance at pro supercross and of that 25 maybe 3 have a career successful enough to never worry about anything after retirement. And that's just in the USA it's an even bigger displacement world wide. Literally only 3-5% of amateur athletes ever make it! Most never make it past amateurs

@@bobbygilbert6955 It is the problem when you step out of a moto bubble and realize that compared to any other sport, we’re lacking at this level. It’s been extensively covered and isn’t a secret that we’ve even been on a decline from the number of participants we used to have. Lying to ourselves about it and convincing ourselves is fine will only kill the sport. Say football for example, easily has a ratio of more than likely 500:1 kids.

@@completelylucid7596 I don't think you can compare little league football to amateur mx i mean the cost of being in those two sports are way different...try comparing it to something on that level like say nascar or F1 something that actually takes $ to get into even on the amateur level!!! And with that said the problem isn't amateur mx it's the greedy selfish organizations who run the sport at the pro level bc that sets the tone for everything underneath it all the way down to beginning amateur level...it's the system that mx sports, feld entertainment and others have created and that's what needs changed, start from the top and it will fix the problems all the way down.... getting into cart racing as a kid then late models as a early teen is the system Nascar built and it worked but they started with the top and fixed the system from there. I don't disagree that there is less mx kids now than what years past have seen but that isn't all the sports fault either you have to account for the economy and all the other outside variables as well, that's why I say amateur mx isn't the problem it's bigger than that

@@bobbygilbert6955 If that’s the case then, tell me how manufacturers keep raising the prices even before inflation went to hell? Literally there incentivizing people to avoid this sport. It is a fair comparison because cost aside they shouldn’t be looked at any differently. What my point is other sports succeed where we fail, is opportunity for growth and availability. Why do we keep comparing our sport to f1 and nascar? I understand it’s logically the most sufficient category but as far as growth of this sport we will keep hitting a brick wall if we keep thinking that way. I used that as just an example of my point which again is availability. You wanna make a bike that costs 10 grand when they’re 16? I’m fine that’s a bit justifiable. But pewee bikes nowadays are ludicrous and the sad truth is as a whole the industry sucks ass at marketing and exposure. Hell whenever I talk about mx or anything related most people look at me like a deer in headlights because to become apart of this sport, you have to put in the effort. Other sports can attract casual fans because they’re strengths are our weakness. Our amateur level is falling apart because 1. The bikes are to expensive for what they are and that needs to change, 2. Marketing and exposure for young children and young parents is borderline non existent, and 3. Were stuck in the past plain and simple. I can’t stand when people compare this sport to f1 and nascar because it’s backwards thinking. Take lead and examples from other sports that have over 100x more exposure than we do rather than competitive racing that I would be willing to bet money on won’t be around longer than other major league sports do.

I think supercross has the viewership, if they didn't than USA, NBC and CNBC wouldn't be airing the races. I think it's how the riders contracts are set up with feld and the actual teams. That's where the fine line is. Just my opinion though. We'll never know why and what's going on..

@@jamesh1402 they averaged like 300k views last year which isn't great. I just think younger audiences aren't watching supercross on TV because younger audiences rarely watch TV. Just got to adapt or eventually you'll get left behind. Also XGames still had broadcasts on ESPN simultaneously so not to say you can't do both, but that depends on contracts.

how are you gonna even attempt to make that comparison with a tear off lmfao what the fuck

@@JessC792 There are no failures in great attempts!

@@GIT2WORK747 Can't tell if this is a meme response but im proud if it is hahahaha

How many vertebrae have been broken on the golf course? And not from gettin drunk and crashing your weak ass golf cart.

It’s viewership actually. Whilst golfers are more likely to watch golf. It’s not necessarily true. For example how many ufc fans are mma fighters. A sport can captivate an audience that doesn’t actually do the sport.

@@oliverlennard fair enough, same with football. Some 80% of viewers have never played the game. However, i think the explanation for that is that those sports require no insight to understand. Run the ball down the field, hit the other guy, etc. try explaining suspension settings to a person who doesn’t ride & watch their eyes glaze over lol

I believe riding for fun is separate than lining up on the gate with 20 of the baddest dudes and risking your life. Going out for fun with your buddy’s is one thing, do that for the love, but racers should be getting paid a lot more.

It’s not a mindset when you work so hard and earn little money. Moto is not easy to be good at it
