I am Australian and proud of this young man. Take away our countries bias.... I think we are witnessing something truly amazing. He makes going fast look slow.🇦🇺🍻
@@malky525 They get it from "A DINGO ATE MY BABY", Jett put on another masterclass , what a truly generational talent this lad is , Incredible what he has already achieved on the 450
Has zero competition if he stays clean the only contender could be young deegan in a few years but then jett will just start using 5th and 6th gear. Until they open up a 650 class all the rest of those poor pros are gonna get dominated by this aussie
No doubt excellent riding, I just can't believe that nobody has anything to challenge him ? NOBODY??? Great footage Matt and thanks for sharing your adventures with us 🇺🇸
I would say he is the best rider I’ve ever seen and I been watching since I was 8 racing from 15 to 27 years old up to mxgp level and British champs, I’m 52 raced with Everts and even he wasn’t this good at his age. Next GOAT for sure👀‼️👍🏁🇬🇧
It's awesome watching history being made. If he stays healthy, he will probably break every record in the sport. it seems like he has invented a whole new style. ❤️🇺🇸 Great footage bruh!!
Smooth and calculated strokes of gas. The thufest track and he rides like it was in is backyard... A NEW style no doubt, new time and new era is breaking in. I hope he has the support and guidance to became one of the greatest.
Glad I was able to witness it live. Great shots man!!! He made it look flawless, perfect laps every time around. You wouldn’t think it was that hot outside the way he rode.
Everyone gushes about Sexton's style but when they was going back and forth between him and Jett it was noticeably smoother and lighter on the bike than Chase and made him look normal. Was crazy to see.
He will be the most successful athlete to ever come through our sport when he is finished without a doubt. The dude is unbelievable on a dirt bike and i believe he is only going to get faster.
If everyone thinks that JL has alot of pressure on him for a possible perfect season Could you imagine what the engine builder and mechanics are dealing with especially now where there can be absolutely zero mistakes that could lead to a mechanical failure ending that perfect season in an instant! MOTOCROSS IS ALOT OF THINGS BUT IT IS NEVER DULL BORING OR PREDICTABLE
@@mattburkeen820 He sure does! He’s got more control of the bike than anyone else in the history of the sport along with the speed. He’s unreal and at the same time one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. My family and I spent a day with them at the Honda Supercross Test Track.
Amazing to watch! Just cruising around. He makes it look so easy which is insane to me. It almost makes you believe by adopting his riding style you could do it too lol. I guess that would be like watching Jordan shoot a basketball and thinking I got that.
2:29 - uses the bump on the jump face to float over the jump...just so freakin efficient. When he was on 250's I held out on jumping on the bandwagon pretty hard, but now, on a 450 he truly is revolutionary.
the reason chase loses him thru the moto is because jett rides the track differently and makes it easier for himself. chase has to push hard to keep up with him and that wears him down
He deserves all the accolades from the hard work from a young age it would be amazing to see him clean sweep the championship but it only takes a get off to ruin that but at the moment he certainly doing enough to maybe achieve it go jett and hunter
The Honda is dialed in and he is just cruising around. No one that can give him a fight at this point. Nice work Honda and Jett. Like they did with Gajser and his crf. Track looks like Rhenen in the Netherlands. Be glad it's not the same as Lommel...
Hey Matt, when a fast guy like Jett makes everybody look slow (comparatively) do other riders actively study what he does and try to emulate him? Or do they just try to go out and hammer stuff harder the next time? I can see it being a big kick in the pride so have to unlearn what you know, and try to imitate somebody that clearly does things better. I can't figure out exactly what he's doing to make the tracks look so smooth. His rear wheel seems to track the ground almost perfectly and his bike isn't pogoing around like everybody else, even Chase to a degree. Is that a function of a radically different setup? Or mainly his riding style and control? Also, his corners are arced so perfectly, he rarely stuffs into a berm, and it seems like he uses the brakes more sparingly and gently than other guys. His peak speed is not really hugely more than any of the other top guys I suspect, but his average speed is incredible.
I would think everyone is studying him! But it’s a lot harder to actually do it. I know I’ve watched tons of Jett footage and I can’t do any of this stuff 😂😭
Hes so dam good those long legs how he stands up in attack position then back on the gas tank turning reminds me a lot of pastrana but a cleaned up version
The move is sick but more importantly look it in contrast to Sexton's technique coming into that corner. Getting all jarred up from the bumps and using all his energy to brake. Jett is changing the game. More subtle than the Bubba scrub but maybe separating him more from the field.
@travistatman4315 And Sextons technique is better than everyone else's. Jett is just something different. I've never seen anything like him. People are whining its boring but it's a joy to watch
@@mattburkeen820 If he stays Injury free we can look forward to 5-6 years of Jett dominating the 450 class like no one has ever before him... scary good
I feel as you could put him on any manufacture and he would do the same... dominate! looks like his body and posture is so good its as if his body is still and not moving while on the bike. master rider.
I'm Aussie and a huge fan of both Jett and Jeffrey, but I think Jett would struggle to beat Jeffrey on the sand, Southwick was a mid-level rough sand track at the end of the day in comparison to the roughest sand tracks in Europe, on a hard pack surface I think they would be fairly even. Even though herlings was super fast at ironman and blew everyone away in 2016/17 and hadn't ridden the track before with only 3-4 days on that bike. So as much as I like to think they would be closely matched on a hard pack track I may be wrong with herlings. He might still be faster?!
I’m not allowed to sell it at the races, but here’s a link to the shirts - docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdZnEvTR9PHpa0kEpEDz0cROee6o4oxZ0S3IyWaxTfnxjglxw/viewform?usp=pp_url
He did make it look easy, he looked so smooth and in control while some others although fast, the bike was bucking all over the place. Hate people trying to say he’s having it easy and he wouldn’t be unbeaten if such and such was here, these people forget Sexton give Tomac a hard time last year and Ferrandis won the championship in 2021. Vialle also looked so smooth. We all know Jet wouldn’t be unbeaten if Matty B was racing.. how much did Honda bribe you?
Why he is so fast is because he keeps his feet on the pegs. Problem i have witnessed for past couple of decades, which most riders weren’t even born, is this flashy whip crap and trying to throw the biggest roost.
Wrong, that's what the right suspension guy can do with a suspension to a rider. The suspension will do nothing when i set it up. But the magic happens with the right person setting it up like the rider like it.
@@shotgunbrown2821 A LOT faster.. dont a 2023 450 doesnt even compare to a 2008 450 anymore. Totally different animas now, plus the power is so much more linear.
