What a champion he was. Had the privilege of meeting Dave at Upper Sparks Farm, British round early 90s. One of our greatest motocross riders of all time.
i like how thorpey said he let them go past then overtook em to see if they would do anything but they didnt ha ha ha what a rider and 3 time WORLD champion! get ole bubba big lips over here and give it a go thats if he can stay on the bike that is lol!!

Well, we just pounded some more Euro ass at the MXoN, you poodle dicks. And our fastest riders were still at home, probably tearing off a piece of hot American poon. And when you get to Colorado next year, we gonna smack dat azz some mo'. I hear your boy C Pourcel is hiding out in the Lites class again next year for our nationals and SX. Don't want none of Bubba's beat downs in the 450's. Bock, bock, BOCKAAAK.! Can't you guys find a set of balls SOMEWHERE in euroland? HaaHaaHaaaaaaaah.
apparantly thats supposed to be a compliment, weisel reckons it was because he had no style but admits he was a good rider,i mean if your shit you dont win 4 world titles
I love the track. I wish they still had tracks like this in America. Even the famous Unadilla has been destroyed with manmade jumps everywhere and bulldozing between every moto. Motocross is dead in America.
Yes in 1986 Maggoria Italy,,,,, Johnny Omara on a "production based" Honda CR125 Beat Thorpe and his Trick Factory RC500... Look it up here on youtube... The Euros were really inferior to the Southern Californians in the early 80's to early 90's. What hurt the Americans was that all our races, SX and MX are big jumps. Thats why we dont have any riders that could match Stefan Everts on the fast Euro tracks in the mid 90's to present. The next MXDN will be interesting for sure
who won the 1985 MxdN? the Americans! Who won every MxdN from 1981 to 1993? The Americans! Who has won the most MxdN? yep you guessed it, the Americans (19).........Give the victors there due. Thorpe was great but dont take away from the accomplishments and ability of the Americans........talk smack when you can actually back it up.
who won this who won that ? whoopy .just watch the video again penis like i said dave thorpe stuffs the americans !!!!! just stating a fact hardon. ha ha
Great video, how much do i want to own this on vhs or dvd. As for the comment on the 86 des nations, you really need to learn your mx history as anyone who knows about it would remember the buckled wheel and the non working rear brake. O`mara on a production 125? i think not, it might of been bought as a standard bike but with the aftermarket products it was most certainly not "production"
Yes, the Americans arent competitive now on the fast euro style GP tracks. In the 1980's though, The "yanks" were clearly superior. In 1986 MX des nations (Italy), Johnny Omara (on a production Honda 125) whooped Thorpe ( on his exotic RC 500) And who won the overall in the MX des nations 1981-1993? Ding, the "Bloody Yanks"........ Too bad them californian riders Ward, Lechien, Omara, Johnson, Glover, Hannah, etc are retarted now, hahah.
The americans have got to bear in mind that no matter what they win in america, its still only a national race. the only quick yanks are the top three riders in each class, the rest are just like any other pro, Ben townley proved that as did Antonio Cairoli, Sebastian Tortelli, David Vuillemin, DAVE THORPE and soon to go over there and show the yanks how we do it in England, Tommy Searl. Get your head out of your arse America!
Is that why all the best euros come to america to race? And after you get through the top 3 european riders in each class, everyone else is fast too? Every year we hear how some european is going to beat the Americans but they rarely do, and it doesn't matter where the race is. We'll see at the MX des nations. Get your head out of Searl's arse.
Yeah! Come on over and show us how to ride Supercross. Or tracks like Red Bud with GIANT triples. Even Everts struggled here- Kevin Windham (who has never won a National title) showed Stefan the fast way around Budds Creek
250 USGP- must have been late 90s or early 2000s. Everts was hanging in there, but he fell a coule of times. Windam is one of the most naturally talented riders I've ever seen in person- Johnny 'O was the other. KW had the misfortune of riding in the same era as the GOAT (RC) and the King of Suercross(McGrath)
You would struggle too on a track 8000 miles from home in anouther country racing with jet lag. Everts stomped Stewart twice at the 2006 Des Nations. Everts stomped Windham and Charmichael twice at the 1999 Des Nations.
Americans are all about Supercross with the big jumps, so much so they are turning all their outdoor tracks into Supercross tracks with the addition of manmade jumps. Americans dominate Supercross but don't even race motocross anymore.
Thorpe was a great rider(so was Nicoll, Georges Jobe, Vromans, etc.) Being an American, I thought we put out some GREAT teams, but Danny "Magoo" Chandler was always my favorite. I think it was Gaildorf where they had to trim the tree branches that hung over the track because Magoo was flying so high.
This video is 1985. 1986 was in Italy when USA went perfect 1-2 in every moto. Including the previously mention Johnny O'Mara on a 125 beating Thorpe on a 500.
