33-Year-Old 125cc 2 Stroke VS. Modern Bikes!

[@johngray722]

fast approaching the best motocross channel

[@999lazer]

Thanks John, that means a lot to us :)

[@MarcSherwood]

Us fans can be called the 999Glazers :-)

[@mandrakejake]

Hats off to Sean, really showing his talent today

[@davebarlow6457]

Love this channel. As an ex 2 stroke rider who raced from 1976 to 1988 , your videos are always a must watch. The thing that baffles me though is where have all the hills disappeared to on today's motocross tracks ? Even in schoolboy's back in the day we used to race on tracks with big hills and drop offs. Apart from the table tops everything seems so flat now , I guess that's just the way it is. Only Foxhills and Hawkstone when they're used , seem to be the exception.

[@mandrakejake]

I guess it's to reduce the risk of injury, hills are ace but an easy way to stack it hard. Plus they limit visibility for spectators.

[@999lazer]

Thanks for taking the time to watch Dave :-D We live near the Fens so a lot of the tracks we use are out that way and there's not a a hill to be seen for miles and miles lol

[@davebarlow6457]

Thanks for the reply my friend , keep these great videos coming. Please keep in mind a review test on a 1981 RM125 if you're lucky enough to find one. With it's water cooled motor and full floater suspension this is a bike that signalled a new era in motocross technology and development. The 82 model was exactly the same bike apart from a decal change. Keep up the great work.

[@joeyb3441]

Ashdown SW Oxford has huge hills, practice and race track open to the public. I wish there was more though like the old days

[@sTiLiTy]

@@joeyb3441 Nice to see Ashdown Woods get a mention, tanking it full throttle up the hill and flying 100ft down the track is something I will never forget.

[@Sn0w1981]

You guys should do a sidecar race together. lol And race to decide who gets to drive!

[@antquayle9275]

"Grandads gone crazy". Definitely a line of merch for Shaun there. Put me down for some. Love the challenge uploads. You do a good job here max. Great balance between 2 stroke action and plenty of smiles.

[@999lazer]

Much appreciated, thanks for watching

[@thomashoglund3472]

Great racing! Sean was a tough guy to beat. It seems to be a very nice race track! Thanks Max and Sean for a great race!👍

[@999lazer]

Thanks Thomas

[@siraff4461]

I loved this. There's something just natural about the way this was. Two lads out beating on bikes for a piece of the cake. The way things should be.

[@999lazer]

thank you

[@joshuahanson9644]

This was an awesome video! Props to you and Grandad for some great racing. Always cool to see an old 2 stroke rip against the new ones. I can’t wait to see that RM250 again! Until next time boys! 🤘

[@999lazer]

Thanks for taking the time to watch Joshua, so glad you enjoyed it :-D

[@cutters74]

Sean is a beast on a bike 👊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻😎😎😎

[@jeyloureiro]

the whole format of the channel... its just so interesting, so diferent compared to everything else! So raw and well produced at the same time... I stay stuck on every video! can't fast forward or skip parts, I watch the whole thing every time. So cool... thanks Max!

[@MotoPhill]

Absolutely fabulous viewing as an ex racer on 250 2 strokes I was feeling everything out there brought back all the memories of getting ragged whilst racing brilliant video guys ❤️

[@999lazer]

Thanks for watching Phil :-D

[@King_Nero_1]

This was a lot of fun to watch. Nice to see a 1991 RM 125 in the hands of a skilled rider.

[@mikehudgens7007]

Think I had just as much fun watching the races as much as you 2 fella's did riding !!!! Nothing like 2 buddies going at it on these 4 cool rides !!! Sean was railing the guts out of the RM , it was incredible to hear - and my fav bike on the channel " Kong " proving that big 2 strokes still rule the roost !!!! My Kong is a 92 KTM MX 500 that is knicknamed " The Hulk " as my granddaughter calls it incredible hulk LOL !!! Fantastic riding to both you gents - 999lazer is def the most fun and interesting ( with all the diff builds and bikes you share ) on the tube - love this track - wish I could spin some laps on it someday - Now cannot wait to see " grand dad " on the RM 250 - great racing and great bikes today - Congrats Sean for your hard earned win against the fierce competition 🏁 Granddad gone wild - love it 🏁🏁

[@999lazer]

Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and leave such a nice comment Mike :-) I'd definitely recommend riding this track if you get the chance, my local club PJMC race there 4 or 5 times a year usually. The RM250 race vid is going to be a fun one!

[@firsttitlegaming3156]

That was an awesome VS race the old RM still holds its own 😊

[@benburton8463]

Always wicked content! My boy was racing there at buttercup last weekend. Wicked track aswell

[@nickclarkuk]

That kept me on the edge of my seat ! 😅😂. Well done Sean !! The best motocross channel out there .

[@999lazer]

Thanks 👍

[@p540x5]

Wonderful show. Just to hear the two strokes run is nice, especially since the local private tracks in my area have gone away because the 4 strokes carry their sound so far. Also, I can't believe the tracks are so smooth now, and so high speed. Almost like road race on dirt.

[@999lazer]

Thanks for taking the time to watch dude! With only 2 of us riding on the day the track stayed very smooth, on a usual race day this place gets a lot rougher :-D

[@michaeldixon6619]

Best 2 stroke channel by far

[@franciscolopez3229]

Good shot + good editing = great video. I was at edge of my seat. Nice.

[@999lazer]

Glad you enjoyed it! :-D

[@jamesberner5248]

Keep the videos coming max, brilliant mate

[@danpoxon2425]

Sean was flying on that old rm fair play to him

[@albertking7012]

Shaun is knarly on the 125! You almost had the T-bone Max? What happened? Lol....great video guys! Loved every bit. As you Max, the RM250 has always been my favorite bikes, but im 53 so the mid 80's til about 92 is where my love affair comes from. I rode a clapped out 79 Yamaha IT175 throughout the 80's but drooled all over the magazines for the RM's. Having one would be my ultimate bike. It would be a blue engine bike though. Anyways thanks for the great channel guys! Cheers from the US....🤙

[@999lazer]

Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment Albert :-D I thought about the T-Bone for a millisecond, but then i remembered that i do quite like the old chap! lol

[@nickclarkuk]

I was at Farleigh watching Sean racing the 2006 RM so I knew he won in the end. He’s fast !!

[@999lazer]

[@Leo26-t3p]

You and the team are so lucky to be riding stuff like this all of the time

[@999lazer]

we really do appreciate the opportunities we get, it's a lot of work making a video every week alongside a full time job though... but i wouldn't change it for the world :)

[@ruigoncalves5301]

The sound of 125 two stroke is really good. And they are fun to drive too, however the four stroke are very effetive, lots of traction, the ideal is buy 2 bikes, 😂 Every day i watch another video, Max improves his ride , very good really, and congratulations Max

[@stevenbusk539]

Race 2 wasn't clean at all, but hey its good for the video and views! I appreciate on a soft loose track that a 60bhp+ 500 two stroke is hard to ride, but you had enough chances to pass on a straight without the dirty move. The 125cc race should have been a straight head to head race as it was so close and the bike doesn't really make the difference.

[@kingkong81icloud]

Have you seen these Panthera engines you can get to put in a old bike 2 stroke 600 cc , they are supposed to be good, the newer ones

[@999lazer]

Interesting! I'll take a look....

[@dr.hugog.hackenbush9443]

It is a conversion cylinder that bolts right onto a CR500 bottom end, or a completely brand-new counterbalanced 600.
