Great era, Emig was awesome, my fav US rider of his generation. Watched him live, ride the MX Des Nations in Austria, his style shone through on the 125 YZ, most stylish rider there that year, and McGrath & Kiedrowski was there too.
I was fortunate enough to have Carmichael sign a red #4 number plate before he raced that day. Also got a good photo standing next to him. My brother asked him if he was going to jump LaRocco's Leap on the two stroke and Ricky kinda smiled, shook his head and said "Man I don't know,that might be a little hairy". He did it anyway. I knew he would. I think he could have been competitive with some of the 450 guys that day. Maybe not the top five, but 4 sure he could have been top 10. Miss him alot
@TheBlueDogMan My excuse is that mixing oil makes up for the repair costs a four stroke has. And I have learned that ramps treat 4-strokes better than 2-strokes when it comes to the smaller 125R-250F bikes
@zookrider62 look at the exhaust and compare it to the Honda with #811, and compare the sounds between those bikes. I might be wrong, but where did you find he was on a 500
ericgent8702 2 strokes are better in supercross too, much lighter to throw around. I use to do arena cross back in the early 2000s and all the guys hated the 4 strokes on the tight arena cross tracks! Yes they produce more power but 2 strokes can carry speed better and actually put the power down much better.
Elliott Yeah you’re right! I’ve personally never been on a sx track just outdoor rec tracks but the 2 smoke guys always seem to have it wide open all the time compared to the other guys.
1:17 to 1:20 is that cr500af?? Lol got 2nd place. Not bad I know Ricky on different level but I give Guy on 500 credit .. what if Ricky on cr500af, it would be badass tho
Emig has more titles than Dungey, (3 lites, 2 mx and one sx) and the ability to have enough personality to be a sportscaster. Dungey sportscasting? "yea..um....it's good.... ya know, everything just....i'm just superpumped' Emig also got his SX and MX titles when everyone, including a healthy McGrath was on the gate.
Jesus these 2strokes sound amazing . The rm250 of Carmichael's sounds special
Extra crispy. 👌🏻
@@chipper442absolutely 👍🇦🇺
Man I miss that sound and smell. The good old days...
Bee sting only hurts for a little while,
Still one of the best 2 stroke vids.. GOAT ripping and a CR500AF shredding earth behind him.
At 1:41 a mere mortal would have lost it, RC is the man! GOAT!
I consider myself blessed to grow up during the hayday of the #4 rm250. Simply cannot outdo the GOAT!
Never get tired of hearing that sound :)
i could almost close my eyes and just listen to the sound. good stuff
THIS IS THE REAL MOTOCROSS SOUND.
2 SMOKERS SOUND LIKE A SYMPHONY!
FANTASTIC!
1:12, one of the main reasons he's such a crowd favorite, stuff like that. Throwing a whip and pointing at the crowd. Haha. Such a damn awesome rider.

Damn i miss the 2 strokes they sound so sexy the 4 bangers sound like a lawn mower race.
2 strokes forever!!
R.I.P 811
Jeff Stanton still rips. it was amazing to watch him ride at farleigh castle in the vets mxdn. he has such amazing style!
So Awesome! Adrenaline pumping through my body whenever I hear those sounds, since I was a young child! Nothing more exciting! Man, I miss racing!

Beautiful Music (2 strokes)
Ricky Carmichael was being followed by a cr500af !!! Go 500cc!!
Tiger Taylor Josh Lichtle was the rider of the 500cr
RC's rm250 is a much much better bike, and not to mention he's obviously a better rider then all these dudes to
man, that made me miss my cr250r.... i think i will go buy one!
What a great noise. And RC is still the master!
REEDDDD BUUUDDDDD! like if you think they need to bring back the 2 stroke invitational!
R.I.P. Josh Lichtle
Man I remember watching emig and carmichael racing when I was a teenager I loved emig though they're the greats right along with McGrath
@zookrider62 look at the exhaust and compare it to the Honda with #811, and compare the sounds between those bikes. I might be wrong, but where did you find he was on a 500
@BigScaleBart haha, man, im talking about #811 being on a 500, Josh Lichtle.
Josh Lichtle #811 R.I.P
( Right behind Carmichael)
RC rides that thing like it's a 1-2-5!!
You got that right, Stanton, man, that fella was sooooo damn fit and strong outdoors or in. Great era, Stanton, Bradshaw, Bayle, Chicken
sad that most manufacturers weren't even making 2 strokes any more at this time.
I wish they would at least have ONE 2 stroke class in supercross and nationals, it would bring a lot of watchers back probably
sad, but, its possible that a 250 2t will never be ridden like that again.
did he just do Larocco's leap?? wow!
can i buy this on i tunes?
Wow! real motocross!...looks like Carmichael still has it.
vurbmoto, I have to ask, how exactly do you define "Uncut" as it relates to the content of this video?
Ricky was magical on that RM
Ricky's bike breathes fire & rip 811
c'è dentro anche un 500 af se non sbaglio?
2 strokes are way better for nationals, 4 strokes are better for supercross

2-strokes are better for everything ! ;-)
is this on itunes?
@dmoneytuttle and look at 0:16 that yamahas pipe wraps around the left too
i miss this sounds
Noone not even his fellow legends will put away the goat
R.I.P. Lichtle
How good was / is RC just awesome
2 strokes for life #811...God bless
@aMiller6790 he was extremely fast, but he was indeed on a 500
Uncut 2 strokes I love the smell of premix in the Morning Smell like Victory
@dmoneytuttle hey i never said that his bike isnt a 500 cuz it is i just said that 250 wrap around the left 2
was it that kid that died of a heat stroke last year?
GOD carmichael looked good on a 2t
i have 2 stroke noises on my ipod
All sound bad-ass, but that Service Honda sound is absolutely a beast. Yep, I'm biased...have that thing sitting in my garage.
are they on 500s
the start was amazing
1:17 to 1:20 is that cr500af?? Lol got 2nd place. Not bad I know Ricky on different level but I give Guy on 500 credit .. what if Ricky on cr500af, it would be badass tho
JL811 RIP 2- stokes for life.
man i love this song :)
Just the sound of these machines, gets me fired up. music to my ears.
let me re phrase that. i am far less exhilarated spinning laps on my 250f than i was when i rode a 125.
Please, please,, please Mr. Kawhondsuki, start producing competitive 2 smokes again!!!
Emig did not race. Anyone know why?
"Th-Th-The, Th-Th-The, Th-Th... That's all, folks!"
@@user-sp8eb6iz7f that's funny...
now this is how motocross should sound!!!
RIP Josh Lichtle 811
@seshNY not all of the, most are on 250s
No KTM 2 strokes out there?? D:
@zookrider62 it's a 250
Carmichael on the gas in the entry of the turns, so right!
2 strokes are 4 ever man wish I could ride like em
good old days
what happended?
It still sounds like that.
Damn he was rippin
Nuttin beats the 2 stroke scream
@dmoneytuttle considering without 2 strokes there probaly wouldnt be a 4 stroke motocross bike??????
Ahh, what motocross USED to sound like. =)
Enjoy the arm pump boys? God I miss the sound and smell of the two strokes.
i think when Suzuki signed carmichael they told him only one thing, ride our bike all out, as loud and hard as you can, and so he did!
carmicheals bike sounds siiiiiiiiiick
rip josh
Josh Lichtle 811 R.I.P.
carmichle on a 2 stroke is amazing!
RIP Josh Lichtle
Gotta love those 2 smokes
2 strokes are for the track, 4 strokes are for the backyard... nuff said
Gotta love those 2 smokes!!!
canzoni i per bambini
canzoni per bambini
I love my rm250
RIP Josh 811
Man the days where carmichael was fit and kicking everybodies asses
gods speed 811.
Kyle Anderson Amen
god's speed, irrelevant.
the sound is just well awsome xD
And just think, Ricky was riding conservatively at 60% right after the start
todd dehoop #10 grew up neighbors with my dad in hudsonville michigan

Holy crap the one Honda is so deep. Sounds almsost like a 500, but looks like a 250.
500AF. Modern frame and suspension with a 500 motor.
@dmoneytuttle i have a 250 2stroke and the pipe wraps around the left to u dont no what ur talking about

RIP josh!
RC is the last one of the big two stroke rider ever...
