- Brian Deegan joins us on the podcast once again on the heels of their Star Racing Yamaha announcement. This is some of the biggest news in the industry right now not only for a racing perspective, but also from the media and marketing angle. We are super stoked that Brian was keen to come back on the podcast to give us a rare look behind the curtain of a factory deal on this scale.

Wees niet bang. je zoon gaat het goed doen en laat hem los en verder ontwikkelen...
Putting Haiden the human ahead of Haiden the brand was the only thing that ever crossed Brian’s mind. Pro move from one dad to another. 👍🏻
Then maybe he should have taught him respect and fair play instead of stealing a kids bike
@@brittraney1 i don’t think he stole anyones bike 😂
@@Cammmmmm653 actually it was star Yamaha that stole it but it’s the bike he rides
@@brittraney1 exactly, shut up 😂
That didn’t happen either. The coach and sponsor talked him out of buying it.
🤘🤘 legend... the reason these guys want to be on your show is you get straight to it and they trust you.. with brian trusting you to take out the clip and right after the deal they're back on here first.. give yourself some credit man you're killing it.. the other guys are all cool to but you're the only one thats humble enough to not try and make stupid ass jokes all the time like Steve or jason or even Don... well done man and always class
I honestly can stand Don
I couldn't agree more tip notch stuff here.
@@chupacabraracing181 he isn't a good interviewer at all, iv'e tried to watch his stuff but can't
real talk hey. big respect :)
@@bknoxx he's an og and I respect him for what he does for the sport from way back in the transworld MX days but he just comes off super awkward and borderline arrogant. Also his attempt at humor is very off putting.
Anyone who underestimates how much effort the Deegans have put in is crazy!
There are plenty of rich kids but how many make it???
Congrats to the whole Deegan group!!
The fact Brian is so open and cool about anything it's hard not to like him. I grew up same time as Jase and Brian was not my favorite. But this was before you knew all he did was to get where he is now. Now he has a voice and I love to say I could listen to you guys talk every day all day.
Damn bro! I love when you can listen to someone talk and can feel almost every emotion he feels. CLEARLY a proud papa who also deserves a lil pat on the back his self! Absolutely love the Deegan family and can’t possibly gain anymore respect for the man himself than I have already. Congratulations
Brian's been sponsored for the last 20 years he knows what's up! His a wise inspiring man
I am so happy for the Deegans, especially Brian. I grew up in Kansas in the amateur MX scene as two of my best friends raced and both have placed top 10 in amateur nationals. But, I would see Deegan at some local races on his 80, usually getting 2nd to Jeff Emig but still super fast. I remember Guy Coopers grand opening of his Perry, Ok nighttime SX track and Deegan got second that night to Fro as well, but that track was so cool with a giant concrete grandstand overlooking the track, basically in the middle of nowhere. So, I know how much of a grind he has gone through times 2 or 3. He can rest a little now and watch his son and get some joy.
Fuck yeah another Brian Deegan podcast. Fun fact: the only time I know when a new podcast is out is when the clips get posted on UA-cam. Then I go listen to the full podcast IMMEDIATELY
Straight up conversation .... Have to admire Brian's dedication to his family and for being a 100% good guy .
Gypsy tales is one of my favorite podcasts and deegans are one of my favorite families to keep up with. So stoked u guys got together!
Thanks heaps man
Bro I bought a Ktm 350 because of your podcast! Best bike I’ve owned.
That’s epic man! Yeah I really love my 350
23
Mad respect to The Deegan’s. Another great interview Jase!
The life lessons your family is getting through all of this will pay more then any numbers on a contract, commitment to the task, overcoming adversities, conquering the course of life #TeamFamily #TeamDeegan
When I was a kid I was a Pastrana guy, we're both from Maryland, but I couldn't like the Deegan's more or be happier for them. I hope Haiden brings supercross the audience it deserves.
Great to hear the info straight from you. Thanks for letting us know what's up!
It doesn't neccesarily matter how much support Haiden has had, what matters is, he's been fully committed since the beginning and has done a phenomenal job! He will sellout stadiums when he debuts pro, can't wait!
Why is deegs just the chillest dude ever?? I love his journey to where he’s at. Dudes got it figured out. Family above all. A little rough around the edges lol coming from mr metal mulisha himself
absolutely killing it on the content man and its so cool to see what seems to be an avg joe like us in the comments sit down with legends and ask them the questions and get answers that we would want! keep it up man and ill keep watching and regardless lf color of bike ill keep supporting Haiden and the deegan fam
Thanks for your support G!
@@GYPSYTALES no man thanks for the awesome vids and insight into the sport
Deegan's are already legends!!
Let's Go Brandon!!!
Brian is such a stand up guy. I respected him as a kid, now I’m a man with my own son and I respect him now so much more!
I thought he was a talented but cocky douche when he was a kid. But now, I truly respect him as a father, an entrepreneur, and as a man who has created an awesome career and lifestyle.
Same. Except for different reasons at different stages in my life. The teenager me and the parent me lol
True legend! Deegan will always be a unique part of motocross history.
You guys sold a lot of ktm bikes and parts. You guys did your job 💯
As a fellow so-cal ktm rider props to Brain for looking out for his son and putting in the best situation possible. keep up the great content just found your videos subbed.
Much appreciated
Ive been watching your stuff for awhile now & have always gotten more than expected from each one I've watched. I gotta compliment you on you're interviewing skills & style. Always excellent stuff man.
Holy cow. What an awesome response and what an awesome dad!
Started listening to your podcast a few weeks ago you are killing it bro keep up the hard work people who ride and aren’t listening are really missing out on some great content
Hell yes Haiden sells dirtbikes. My boy is on a TC50 right now and all he can talk about is getting a KTM 65 when he moves up. As soon as he saw Haiden ride a Yamaha, he now wants a YZ.
The Deegens staying their course. Love it 👍😎
It's the 2nd time I've watched this. The first time was when it first came out and Gypsy was one of the people that told everyone you better watch out because this young man is
a lot better then some people are saying. And now as there is only 2 races left in supercross. I love all the haters that have jumped on the train like we're you guy's not the one's saying he's to young there going to eat him up or he's only there because of Daddy's Money. No the kid puts in work like an adult and has showed the world it wasn't just Daddy's money he put the time the effort in for the goal of being one day. One of the best and now with 3 podiums and sitting 2nd in the points in the EAST. He has gained the respect from all the pro racers like when Hunter stuck up for him in Detroit when the reporter's we're trying bash him for racing his own teammate so hard in a heat race the kid just wants to win even if it's practice or a race or whatever it is Hayden is another once in a generation rider like McGrath, RC, STEWART, And the Lawrence brothers so sit back and just enjoy what this kid is doing.....
DEEGAN TO THE FRONT!!!!!!!
Brian is a smart dude, coming on your podcast talking so much and open about everything. Basically saying in public both companies are great. He is keeping all the doors open for the day maybe KTM will be the go to 450 Team again. I think after this they transparency to all that they will still have the choice to change whenever they want to. Wouldve done it exactly like that
Loving this stuff man!!!
Hell yeah content is great, much love
It is so cool that gypsy tales got the first big interview since this deal happened. I love this shit jace! Keep it up!
Brian would have supported Hayden no matter what team he picked, this make the most sense, first, Star Racing is killing it, bikes make crazy power, Monster, and the championships to back it, also they definitely have more leeway on footage, seriously got choked up when Brian rode a factory bike with Hayden, especially when I was a fan even before he won with moto xxx🤙
Always like Brian. Very down to earth and always spoke his mind. Congratulations on Yamaha..👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽
I bought a yz250f for my first bike and Deegan was apart of that decision. Also the Yamaha changes to the 24’ along with the 50th anniversary graphics. Made my decision easy
Gotta give love to all the filmers too
Respect to Brian, can see he’s struggled with this and have followed his career since the 90s, so relate to allot of what he’s saying here and colour doesn’t bother me, wish them the best regardless either way they have all done good, it will continue, I’m sure. 🤘
I’m sorta interested to see what direction Huckson goes, like it’s fun for him right now, will he go all in as the future unfolds or will he sit back a bit like Mookie did with a James, interesting times, hope he goes all in 🤘
Malcolm always had the talent, he just didn't take amateur racing seriously because he had no interest in being pro growing up. I like Hudson, but right now he doesn't have the ability to get to that level. That may change if he starts to take it seriously but it'll take a lot more work, he doesn't have the natural ability of his brother. I don't see him being a pro but if he does it won't be at a factory level.
So happy he went with Yamaha. Blue crew baby!
I wouldn't even consider the energy drink sponsor thing a thing as far as dads gotta follow the son, look at redbulls media coverage a monster rider just won imagination, they cover everyone as equally in their hard enduro stuff and you have billy bolt and manny on eachothers stuff all the time and their sponsored by rivals as far as energy drink stuff and show up in eachothers content all the time.
Hailey and Brian are Monster. No way they would have 1 as a RedBull. Money talks.
Brian has been with monster for 20 years, you’re not throwing away that relationship, especially when all three of them are monster. That’s gotta be too two biggest deciding factors. I’m not even saying Brian would have to leave monster because haiden would have Red Bull with KTM, but it’s about them having two of the biggest competing sponsors pitted against each other in their family. Monster has been huge for their family for such a long time. I honestly think the monster sponsor was one of the biggest factors, regardless if it will ever be talked about
@@atamagashock exactly what I was thinking.
Also, while Haiden is doing great, this is a big step/decision to move to pro, and at a young age.
The big difference with him vs any other rider stepping up for teams is he already has the family brand and social media exposure and following to rival any of the current leading pros.
It’s all branding they don’t even drink that shit. And having 2 different companies in their videos is bad branding
Deegan is an part owner of monster
So sick to see how stoked Brian is for Haiden , love to see it. Such a well said segment. Lfg
congrats on 100k🎉
I'm an old Moto guy. Brian I don't think you have to explain yourself. I think you're doing exactly what anybody else would do. Problem is most dads don't do it. If they could they would but they can't so they don't. It's about Hayden. I never understood why guys like you can't say how much money the difference was from Ktm and to Yamaha. It would probably shut everybody up. Because all anybody cares about is money. And I hope the Metal Mulisha gig with Larry and Jeremy is okay. I am with you guys all the way
I love the damn bike too. 35plus A rider/ GNCC
Will be fun to see him come up! Best of luck!
You as a dad can only do so much. What got him where he is was his hard work. It don't matter how much money u have it matters how much skill and talent he has and the work he puts in.
Great interview..
Brian is the kind of guy who is meant to be a dad.
Keep the podcasts coming dude!
Love the content dude your absolutely killing it
Videos been out for 20
Seconds and someone already disliked it
Welcome to the internet lol...
Prolly ktm
Most dislikes ain’t real, many of them are done on accident without knowing it by holding/carrying your phone while on or even putting it in your pocket , for the few that are real it don’t matter it actually helps the video keep ranking on yt
Badass Deegan! Love your family hustle and grind! Kid deserves it cause you guys straight put the WORK in! People all want shit handed and you guys do the work! Great job! 👏🏻
That there is passion and heart ,straight up no BS how it is .....
I just know that with Hadens skill focus and desire he will become a champion in the pro ranks💯👍🏻🤴 🏆
God, family , friends and Yamaha is the only things that matter in life. They will always be there when you need them! No questions asked!! #neverletyoudown
I think we’ve approached the time when a team is actually bigger and better than monster Kawi
That time happened years agooo
monster kawi been ass what do you mean
Yep, I remember 2012 too
@@garrett3234 macadoo having the red plate and wins, jo shimoda with a win this year, Seth hammaker winning, future is bring
@@garrett3234 no I mean like really and not just your opinion
With Ya Brian🙏
Really good podcasts you are publishing. Keep it up!
Oh, and I never really was a Yamaha guy. I like them okay, but never cared to own one, was always Honda CR in the 90's for me, but I gotta say ... those bikes, particularly the 250's are so good and man do they sound bad ass (not that that matters, but hey... )
The Joe Rogan of dirt bikes.... Keep up the good work....
I posted this same question on Deegan's channel...any help here?
Psyched like everyone else to see what's next, congrats on the ride, all that hard work is paying off & now the real work begins.
That being said, what comes of Caleb now? I may have missed it, it's impossible to watch everything, but on Deegan's or here I haven't heard mention of Caleb & his future. I haven't heard any thanks or accolades to him & he's a huge reason Haiden is where he is today, I'd think we'd hear more about him. I'm not hating by any means, just curious. Does he stick around & help Huckson? Does he move on entirely to new adventures? Does he stick around & help Haiden with the Yamaha team? I'm surely not the only one wondering about Caleb. Thanks to anyone that can help me out here.
Great interview, Very interesting, My respects for Brian as always.
I love the Deegans but I don’t believe him. It was always gonna be a team that is affiliated with Monster.
Man they are great folks but I assume they signed at Lorettas
I wonder if Yamaha comes out with a new gen in 2023 and has a flop, but ktm comes out with an absolute banger. I guess it’s always the flip on the coin. Be interesting to watch it play out over the next few years 🤙🏼
They’ll just ride the previous year model like Eli did
It’s Yamaha ..they are on top of this 250 Game
@@donbrashsux yeah 💯 there killing it at the moment, but they may have gremlins with a new gen 🤷🏼♂️ or it could be another killer. Only time will tell
chill and humble family
It comes down to what Haiden wants. He's the rider. He has to feel good about it.
No, because Brian and Hailey are Monster. No way they would have 1 as a Redbull unless it was far more money.
We all know it was a Monster thing.... They been Degans sponser since day one. We all knew they'd go with a monster team. And good for them
Brian is a cool ass vibe. Real
My kid wants a Yamaha now...🤦... I tried to tell them they don't make a 50 like his KTM... He's said get me a 65! The 50 is 6 months old....
The best bike is the easiest argument, that it made it easy to stay on Monster too is just the icing.
Deegan's really growing on me.
I really thought they'd surprise us and head to PC.....Mitch's shop is right down the highway from Temecula.....
It would have been so cool to have you guys lead a Ford/monster team into motor cross lol glad to see you on a good bike.
The "other color" was green.
Great content!
DirtBikeTV probably had a good amount to do with the 350 success because they actually put a specific use in mind for it instead of people just thinking that hey its the bike that is 100cc less than the real bike. DirtbikeTV really explained at least to me that it really comes down to a more nimble bike that is easier to throw around in tight situations. All the while backing up the motor and preaching the biggest change in the flagship 450's and the new 350 comes down to weight not power.,
I think it was a good decision to join Yamaha the kid is an excellent 15 yr old rider better than most adults watching this vid right now he’s going to be a champ if he doesn’t get any bad injuries I really hope he doesn’t he’s to young for that shit but so many ppl have faith in him he will get it done on any bike ok maybe not Suzuki lol you made the best decision you could and hats off good luck man
I've always wondered 🤔 if Roger De Coster called to talk with Brian or Hayden ???
We brought another 2022 ktm 85 because of this kid
Great stuff from both of you!👍
Appreciate that mate
cool vid cool info. go team blue!
Man this is amazing
Brian showed class and experience by not dishing out a bunch of negative stuff about a past employer or sponsor. In an interview this will come back to bite you if you do this.
Get dan pastor on jase! Deegan and link always heros to me. The generals a good dad.
Thought... run a poll on your social accounts asking if people bought bikes influenced by the number 38? Yes? No? Question 2. Knowing where #38 rides now, are you more inclined to buy a Yamaha or KTM now?
Bro love your content
Good Shit man!
At some point in his pro career love to see those spikes on the shoulders. Tribute to Dad
If they don’t even allow go pros for everyone just good riders I definitely know they wouldn’t allow it
I want him to ghost ride the whip first main event win
@@GYPSYTALES oh definetly
That's what I'm sayn about the bike sales, work out a percentage of the sales. Haiden sold ALOT of ktm mini bikes. Heck the gates were full of Ktm minis coast to coast.
Re the 350, just want to follow up on that and you get the message each ross good something I been saying for years.
Just want to back that up some, and add a bit as well, even though I’m not a 4t guy, (not a hater, love all bikes, but my style suits 2t) as found that out about 8 years ago when I did a demo day actually did a couple back to ack consecutive years and again in 2017/18 but I was always keen even then on a 350, age and size etc etc the usual reasons people talk about going to a 450, but I knew from experience of riding and racing for many years I didn’t need a 450 nor did I want a 450, I wanted to ride and if race it was for fun (always be competitive but fun) and also a safety factor, off road many locations here are remote and also there is always a unknown factor in the bush and forests, tracks here can vary and conditions and riders on track etc are as unpredictable these days as the bush is. Anyways after demoing the whole range 250/ twice, 2 350x XC & EXC a 450 (forced to try peer pressure) the 500exc, (was my fav 4t actually) but not fun, but has a place for various types of riding here where rego etc legally on road is required, I went back to a 250 2t surprisingly for me it was like I’d never stepped off a bike, like putting back on my favourite well used AXOs from the 80s or 90s. I know have a YZ 250 (2t) YZ125 (2t) have a 22 YZ125 coming.
Point is thought I’d ask if you have seen or watch other forms of off-road racing, eg I follow MX, US, AUS and NZ, I follow HardEnduro, did follow WESS covid force it to fold and EnduroGP I have followed since the 90s as well, back in the day we raced MX one weekend SX another, cross country the next, then it’d be another MX event then an Enduro, or 6 hr race or a Iron man 2 day event, MX was always my pure dirt diet, but it always gave us new places to race and new people to meet and we rode and raced for love of it, so event didn’t matter it made us better riders and people I believe and was allot of fun on and off the tracks.
WESS and EnduroGP though, just for those not familiar,
These are the senior class’s there are multiple junior and women’s class’s as well
Enduro GP consists of 3class’s E1, E2, E3 and E GP.
Enduro 1 (E1) is any cc 2t or 4t up to 250cc capacity.
Enduro 2 (E2) is 4t only 250cc up to 450cc so any bike from and in between these CC ratings
Enduro 3 (E3) 250+ cc to 450+ cc 2 or 4 stroke
Enduro GP Rankings based on overall standings (E1, E2, E3)
Each class has a winner and an overall event winner and eventually a World Champion
Enduro GP is an overall winner of all 3 class’s combined as they race timed over the same courses throughout the season, so an overall champion can be crowned, like WESS was, it allowed different bikes technologies and capacities to be used, though unlike WESS (World Enduro Super Series) in EnduroGp you must select a class and that’s your class and bike type CC for the season. Point is all 3 class’s compete for an overall World Champion regardless of CC /bike, it’s unique .
And it also highlights the point I want to make re a bike class in true competition where all things are equal as can be re politics manufacturers and organisers but unlike MX esp in the US it’s very transparent and for the good of the sport which has gone from strength to strength.
Just to highlight one of the fastest riders in this world is an ex MXGP rider and KTMs wunnderkid, Josep Garcia he can choose any class or bike he wants, KTM will i’ve it to him, he raced in the E2 class he chooses the KTM 350 excF and on the fastest open course he’s almost untouchable and that’s against 450s, we know Antonio Caroli prob had his best years on the 350SXF in MXGP and people often forget that too, but watch this kid ride.
I’m sure he won this years E 2 World Championship after 2 years away in the WESS series.
that’s not the biggest thing though last years champion in E2 and E GP world champion multiple time double world champion was Steve Holcomb he won all of his titles on Beta’s Factory team choosing the Beta 350 Factory Race Edition (you can buy a Factory ed, not the Factory bike, but better model than KTMs factory bling parts)
And for you Jase you may or may not remember Matt Phillips who was the last Australian to win on a 300cc 4t both the E2 class and the Enduro GP class in 2016 for Sherco Factory Racing team.
2017 by Steve Holcombe won on Factory Beta 300cc 2t double WC as he won E3
2018 by Steve Holcomb again both class’s for Beta E3/E GP overall
2019 were was won by another 2t interesting this one is unique for a couple of reasons, this rider won 2 World Titles as Steve did before him he is also a Brit and he did with the Beta brand but what’s different is he did it won the E1 World title (dominated more like it) on Beta’s 250 2t RR Racing the 2nd thing is it was not the Factory team, but the Satellite team, Beta Boano team and took the overall in EnduroGP taking out that title that’s against all 2t capacities and 4t capacities 250/350/450 and above 500s etc.
Watch anything from these races and these aren’t trials speeds they are fast esp the French rounds but point is if people, think a 350 or less is less of a bike, this competition shows clearly a the bikes today 2t and 4t given equal opportunity to the rider are not just competitive but capable and this genre for weekend warriors shows regardless of whether weekend warriors are track only riders the the rider is more important than the power of the bike or the biggest CC, long I know but it’s a topic you bring up constantly re the 350 and I agree but I think it could be used further, esp for the weekend warriors, but also for budding riders, another key reason I am and a,says have been a 125 proponent and very against jumping onto 250fs early.
Not gonna bring that Dangerboy, decisions been made, but I have made that before too. I’ll throw in a couple of links for the doubters..
Last rd of the 2021 E GP season, WC crowned.
ua-cam.com/video/fL8Prf2566M/v-deo.html
Wess 2019 García on a 350, most in top 10 we’re on 450, one 300. 2t in there.
ua-cam.com/video/LUovsrkdqRM/v-deo.html
Just a ref for the speed here re bike and rider.
I bought a 350 from your hyper. Seriously
Anyone that thinks that Deegans didn't help sell a ton of bikes over the last several years is simply an idiot. It's business. Period.
Whats the channel with full length vids
Gypsy Tales Podcast
Yeah kudos to Brian i think hes Good example of a motocross dad...they have their notoriosly bad image like tennis dads...an typical pro young athelete parents...they tend ti be a little over whelming...i have only one thing for hayden to do is watch Eli Tomac thru the really rough sections..an i just realized they are teammates i believe...but Eli is so good in the rough sections...Hayden needs a little of that..keep getting holeshots thats a great habit peace dont be in a hurry leave that 450 alone for a couple years..any one can go fast on the 450 it will make u lazy...master the 250 make it flow thru turns unless ur riding Supercross...
I think it was a bad choice for him to pick Yamaha but we will have to see how it works out
Just curious as to why? Star Yamaha is legitimately the best 250 program right now.
Bad or are you just sad ?
Yamaha is paying more money. the KTM is a better bike.
@@reese3407 I agree with that if we are talking about the 450 class. For the 250, Yamaha has dominant since 2014 when they completely changed their bike. Star Yamaha has performed exceptionally better than KTM’s 250 efforts for quite a while. I’m not bashing KTM by any means, they make a phenomenal bike, but that Star Yamaha is something else and has been for the past 7 years.
@@reese3407 KTM is not a better bike . No way .
At the end of the day regardless of what any other person other than YOUR family thinks is unimportant. The thing is if you have fun are competitive and have a fun group of people to work with, Who could complain about wanting those things and anyone that does is just a jerk really.
I WANNA SEE SOME BMX RACE CONTENT ...
Cool
Other than yes Yamaha has a good bike but I have a feeling a lot had to do with monster energy on this deal being made.
With monster being a sponsor of brian hailey and haiden through the years
11:05 Deegan, you forgot to mention fans, dude. What about the viewers, the fans. You wouldn't have done any thing in your career without the audiences that have supported what you and your children do. C'mon man!
But the ktm got him to where he's at. ?
