#7 FINAL EPISODE

[@jacobbailey5112]

We are all happy that you finally found peace. Enjoy your family. I am happy I got to witness you race. Thank you for all the memories!

[@rotaxhippie]

We were all robbed of witnessing more of this man's talent.

[@livefreeandshred9818]

Thanks WADA, USADA, and the FIM

[@BayAreaBully7667]

forreal.. that lifestyle of riding professionally has totally drained the fuck out of him. like he said. he couldnt really be himself, he was basically forced to be this other person as a rider. wayyy too much on your shoulders. everyone wants to be the best but dont know what it takes to get there... you can tell his got a spiritual side to him.. an hes ready to put all this shit behind him and be himself. a father. i wanna hear a good interview from his pops because hes probably got some crazy to say because he started all this

[@johnnybgood774]

He would have definitely beat mcgrath's 72 or came very close

[@tavaresoutdoors9454]

This man would of been robbed more of his life by giving you that , you heard from the man himself the best thing he’s ever done was having kids . Literally said dungey helped him by pushing him out after the crash

[@johnnydsworld710]

Every one at Dade City, Bithlo, Hardrock and the other tracks knew you were special back when you were riding pee wee oil. When you graduated to 60s, I can recall seeing you doing things on that 60 that the local A riders might not necessarily huck. By the time we all saw you on a 125, it was obvious. Watching you grow up, and Carmichael, and Ferry and many others like Renner, Pocorobba, Devane, Yoho, it was clear, you were going to the top. I was old, fat and slow and your Dad actually gave me the best compliment I ever got riding a bike one Saturday at Dade City. Meant a lot to me because we all knew where you were heading and who your Dad was. Nothing but respect for that man. Sure, I am selfish, I was hoping for a farewell tour. We were all hoping to get one last glimpse of the great #259. But now that you have opened up and explained it all, I feel for you, understand you and admire you even more James. Enjoy retirement, you've earned it my friend.

[@WOT881]

JohnnyD's World I was riding 125 B in those days, I’m old and fat and slow on a 450 now, but when James would come to all the aforementioned tracks on a 60, it was absolutely mesmerizing watching that kid on his little 60. He NEVER let off the throttle. His Dad would pull up with all his trophies in the back of his Chevy pickup just to show they weren’t playing around.

[@bunnymanmoe8819]

That was deep! 💯

[@mattisjohannesson732]

Thank you James for all of those fantastic racing moments! Enjoy retirement !

[@coreydavin1797]

"Fastest man on the planet"......!-) saw you race Glen Helen at age 16 Thank you for all the great and historical races! So awesome! Bless you and your family!

[@ExtremKamera]

thanks for all James, you are a model for everyone, i am glad that you happy now and living your « new » life as you want to live it. I always will be a fan Thank you Champ

[@92174164]

im a fan ,fun to watch rider , amazing talent ,maybe the fastest rider ever (not the best ) but role model ? i dont see it

[@markshuter]

Thanks James, you made Supercross and Motocross a blast to watch, you’ve done a great service to the sport.

[@danabergman3411]

Good attitude James, your the best, the absolute best 👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸

[@darthmaul7428]

Damn James, these interviews are so deep I dont k ow how to explain how I feel. I'm blessed to have seen you in your prim. You will forever have your place among the greatest in the sport. God bless James.

[@jamesobrien4934]

Even since you stopped, is the day I stopped watching no one seems to have the style and passion like you and the ones that were racing along side you I’m glad I got to see it thank you for holding it wide open you were exciting to watch I still have posters all around my house of you! And the action figures Thanks for explaining this properly for the fans... thank you 😊

[@johnkimball3106]

Glad I was able to witness JS259 back in the day at Hangtown/washougal on 125's and 250's. Most talented man to ever throw a leg over a bike.

[@GoatRoper911]

Thank you James. Immense pressure builds diamonds. You are a diamond.

[@snowzZzZz]

That's a good one

[@IRRIGATIONKINGS]

Had the privilege of seeing James race in GA on an 80. His lap times were faster than the 250 pros. Amazing rider. Happy to see him find happiness at the end of a long road. Malcom 2020!

[@stephaniebrooks2048]

James Stewart is still the king of motorcross in many people's eyes , he has a lot to be proud of because us fans will only remember the great rider and great times of him winning for the fans , man what a show he put on even the crashes , they didnt matter because the riding clinic he put on leading up to the crash was a sight to see. I'm glad to hav had the opportunity to see him ride in my lifetime, he is the greatest rider of all time , aggressive, fast , and the ability to read the track was amazing, hope to see James Stewart make expedition races occasionally, that would to cool for the fans , this is Jeremy from dayton, peace!!

[@ETwOneE21]

James Bubba Stewart. This whole 3 part interview was very emotional and the realest words from deep down inside this man. It gave me chills and no lie fought back a tear or 2. You will be missed but in no way shape or form should we regret any part of your career. We all kno what happened with suspension so kno need to go into that any further. Enjoy your life Mr. Stewart you will be and are missed but most of all I think you will be the most studied rider to learn from. I still watch 125/259 and matter how many times I watch your old tapes it still makes me say how the fuck did he do that. Much love JS7 congrats on the fam and your retirement

[@Hugo-py2ce]

Couldn't of said it better myself.

[@wtfftw24]

This interview is full of heart. Thanx 4 sharing Bubba. Ps. Thnax 4 Toronto, that was Art in motion

[@elcincero321]

Loved it the way you described it... Art in Motion

[@wtfftw24]

@@elcincero321 thank you my friend! Greetings from Italy👋👍

[@Knowles30]

You will forever me the greatest motocrosser of all time. The fastest most untouchable rider. Coming from Tampa Florida and racing at Dade City and all the local tracks, you’re what every kid of my time ever inspired to be. I looked up to every aspect of your riding and I always will. You’re truly a spectacle of life James, enjoy every second for the rest of the life you’ve earned. You’re the man! #259Forever

[@billreed3785]

Good Job... now join the moto community and start talking to us.

[@40831bmx]

Thank you James for being real and honest your whole career. It was a pleasure watching you ride. Your the GOAT!

[@mid-drive]

It was a pleasure watching you out there. Thanks for changing the sport, James!

[@6qsiscu]

Thanks James for all those fantastic moments you gave to us with your motocross! You are a legend! Enjoy your retirement!

[@nickvanslate9704]

Even though he’s “retired” I hope to see him come back and race red bull straight rhythm.

[@roman_hanes]

Bro same it’s magical litteraly

[@derailleurmind0454]

He could be king of straight rhythm.

[@Daniel.Eriksson]

Thank you for sharing all that! I have really enjoyed the three episodes. Take care and stay happy!

[@georgewcamp]

Good for you James - thanks for sharing, continued success in your future

[@mototoad1242]

Fastest man on 2 wheels 🤘 So grateful I was able to watch a legend like James in his prime. Thanks for all the memories Bubba. 🤙

[@stevewilliams1290]

Most exciting rider in history of supercross and motocross! We all can’t wait to see the new you no matter the shape. One Love brother!

[@jraybay]

Thanks for the memories James. I'll never forget watching you in my hometown of Toronto. You were a magician on the bike and there'll never be another rider like you. Glad you're doing alright and are happy. JS7 #1 🏁

[@ronaldtravis970]

Bubba you’re a legend ! True fans know you are not a cheater. No drug on planet gave you the talent and speed you have . Your suspension should never have happened. But like you said one door closed and another opened . God Bless Bubba.

[@jakemccann2790]

I just heard you say that you would not be the same James Stewart ??? YOU are James Stewart , the one and only . # 7 , the fastest man on dirty two wheels , a company man , and a father . Very large accomplish ments when individualised and you have inked them all on life's resume . Well done . Thank you for your efforts on the track and your demeanor off track .

[@bmxshow]

The Goat of motorcycle riding skills 🐐

[@NoNutsNoGlory409]

Daniel Boone MX in Kentucky, 14 years ago at a qualifier, I saw the 259 pull the most chill holeshot from the inside gate and lap everyone up to 8th in a total mudder. It was and still is one of the most impressive rides I had ever seen. Thanks for the memories.

[@edwardvanwormer6993]

Thank you for the update, and a look behind the scenes. Congratulations on starting a family and moving on to the next phase of your life. Always a class act. Best wishes.

[@jeremy_beckers]

Thank you so much for everything you have done for this sport. 2 years later I’m still watching wishing you were still ripping it up. The sport hasn’t been the same since you left.

[@japslapr]

Nothing but love and respect. Thanks for giving your all, it was amazing to watch. Congrats on the fam... enjoy my friend.

[@BlackSkyentertainment]

Thanks for being who you are..... you have brought so much to the sport. I have raced for 35 years and am now a track owner of a National track. We have always been big fans! Thanks again!.

[@daltonpipkin6707]

I think im going to cry. That was amazing. We all love you Bubba, now can you replace ricky in the booth for announcing? that would be great. All of that said it was an honor to watch you race. Thank you for everything you've done for the sport. "hero's get remembered, legends never die"

[@joesee8079]

Dalton STFU

[@mclovin9234]

Nah I like Ricky, he speaks the truth, Ralph shaheen is a delusional dip shit tho

[@fredgarvinMP]

@@mclovin9234 RC sucks ass in the booth calling the races. That NASCAR guy who sat in with them did a WAY better job than RC. Even his side comments and observations about the sport are more insightful than Ricky's!

[@WhosClanNation]

Loved this series. Thank you James.

[@childrenoftarmac3710]

Cheers to al the great moments you provided us as fans! Enjoy the retired life!

[@TheLoopy989]

Dude. Thank you. thank you for elevating the sport, I enjoyed watching you race so much. I'm so sorry you had all that going through your head that whole time. I can see it now, the way you explained it all makes sense. Now Just have fun! You earned it, but thank you for everything that you did, all the sacrifices you made! have fun with your kids, it's awesome to hear you talk about it, and see you're happy. I'm disappointed the industry did that to you at the end, you didn't deserve that. You've got a fan forever. Whenever I think about riding and I want to get back on the bike, now that I'M ALSO old and fat I think about you at Millville on a 125 and some of the stuff I watched you do... it didn't seem real, thanks again. Except for that mud race that Ricky lapped up to 2nd... You were the most stuck I've ever seen at the bottom of the uphill triple. You should be sad about that. Lol. Congrats on kids and congrats on retirement!

[@reidfraser]

Congratulations on a great career and thank you for all you've done for the sport. Glad you're happy and wish you the best in the future!

[@racerx2084]

Thanks Bubba for all the great racing memories. I’m glad you’ve found your inner peace. I’m sure everyone will be greatfull and happy to see you around the pits and your special ride days. I remember going to the KROC in E-Town one year and we were parked right by the starting gate. You were on a 65 and smoked everyone on the 80’s. You were riding your bicycle around the pits making dirtbike noises and your pops was chasing you around. I’ll never forget that. I watched the old fox video with you, Ricky n Travis as kids the other day. #TEAMPUERTORICO2019. Hey, It doesn’t hurt to dream.

[@Va.Resident]

Congrats on a great career, best wishes in the next stage of your life...

[@blops16]

Thanks for all the great memories James! Its been great watching you all these years. Glad I got to see you ride in Paris. Thank you for sharing and explaining everything, as a fan its much appreciate. All the love for you and your family! Thanks again.

I stopped watching mx and sx for a while and was curious as to what happened to James. Man I miss watching this guy ride, he was phenomenal at what he did. Sucks hes done over a bogus ass suspension. Glad he found happiness In where hes at in life.

[@Pheedub]

God bless. Thank you, and good luck on all your ventures!

[@BUGMAN-22]

HAVING BEEN AROUND DIRTBIKES FOR 50 YEARS, THE FIRST TIME I SEEN JAMES HIS ROOKIE YEAR AT REDBUD, I HAD AND NEVER HAVE SEEN ANYONE CORNER AS FAST AS HE DID PERIOD. MY FRIENDS AND I STOOD THERE AND LOOKED AT EACH OTHER AND JUST SMILED, WE KNEW THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE YET HE WAS DOING IT. THANKS JAMES FROM AN OLD GUY WHO GOT TO LIVE THRU YOU AT THE TRACKS AND ON TV. IT TRULY WAS A PLEASURE. HAVE SOME FUN AND SPOIL YOUR KIDS THEY WILL BE GROWN B4 YOU KNOW IT.

[@tiltfritz]

Magic, so glad i got the chanse watching you race Redbud 2013. Me and my cusin traveled from Sweden to Chicago to watch the race and to see you, and thanks to our friend Robert Lind we also got the chanse to meet with you, get autographs and take a picture. Might sound weired from a 34 y/o .. But it was one of the biggest moments in my life. After watching all of those races and beeing a huge fan for your entire career. Wish you all the best with your family and looking forward to seeing your son on the track - because he will be out there, right?

[@kpsmith4241]

Thats awesome.

[@kxracer27]

You're a legend Bubba. You've been my favorite pro racer since I was like 12 when i got my first bike. (KX 100), I'm 30 now and you're still my favorite pro racer. Always will be. As one of your longest and loyal fans i'm proud of you bro, stay retired and do not look back. Keep moving forward. I have kids now too so I know how you feel. Lol

[@aaronstokes2883]

You have TONS of fans and will only grow in popularity. Class act.... pioneer in so many ways.... “Bubba scrub” changed everyone’s idea of what is possible on a dirt bike. James Stewart will be remembered as the Jackie Robinson of moto-cross and SuperCross. Don’t forget mentoring your little bro! Malcolm is going to be the next to carry the Stewart legacy!!!! Thanks for the memories at Hangtown, Oakland, and Glenn Helen!!!

[@thetawater]

Thanks so much for all the great memories and congratulations on your new life!! Big fan of you

[@mlane2012]

The most beautiful thing I've ever seen in the motorcycle world, was the way you rode a 2 stroke. The english you can put on one is unreal. 4 strokes, for me, killed that style. You don't have to really try with the 4 stroke, just roll the throttle. That's what separated you from the rest of the world. I'll never forget, Atlanta 02' or 03', 125 main event, you went down in the first turn. Don't take this the wrong way but I got excited soon as you popped back up. I looked at my friend and we both smiled and said, oh yeah, here we go. That was one of the best rides I've ever seen. You come from 19th I think, to 1st, beating 2nd place by like 42 seconds or something crazy like that. I'll never forget that. Your the man and to hell with them. You done no wrong in my book. Anyway, I wish you and your family the best. Take care of yourself Bubba. Your #1 fan since Muddy Creek 1997, Matthew.

[@premix3663]

Will always be known for his insane talent and speed, would like to see him around the sport still, hope he still does something around the sport, maybe even a 2 stroke race.

[@gmjason75]

U are the baddest dude to ever huck a leg over a scooter imo!! No one comes close James!! Dominator 💪👑✊. Glad you're in a happy place & free from the pressures, stress & massive struggles that go hand in hand with the profession. I was beyond excited to watch every race you were in to see how you'd make a set of doubles a quad or RIP through the whoops passing people or scrub pass someone. You're a Rock STAR man and changed the way riders ride forever. Never a dull moment watching you ride🤘😎🤘

[@Belial-ey6ow]

You are a amazin champion and a true legend, but the most important, you are a great person, humble nd positive ! I wish u the best and thanks u so much for the motocross !!

You the best man on a motorcycle!!!!

[@mak62183]

James has always been my favorite rider & after listening to him emotionally tell what had actually happened at the end of his career, I have a whole new respect for him. Wow, I’m sooooo happy for him to actually find peace in it all. Damn near brought me to tears 😭

[@renanreis1819]

I see you racing with RC, and in my opnion, you are the GOAT. Thank you for making my childhood happy. The most technical and stylish racing in the world. Thank you for your dedication to the sport and making others dream. Be happy and enjoy your life and your story. Cheers from Brazil!

[@kurthargarves6545]

I've been involved in motocross since 1972 and I've never seen anyone ride with the speed and passion that you did. Thanks for the memories

[@KevinMullett]

Thank you for years of thrills and creative lines! I LOVED watching you ride man. Be well and be happy.

[@xwhogafx815]

Still huge fan Stewart. Glad you did this interview been wondering about you. The only #7

[@ericd.4253]

There is no way you would be sitting at only 50+ wins! Even if you didn't win 7 SX championships,MC 72 SX win record would have been broken and I think politics did come into play because 2014 you were in contention for that SX championship! I think you only had 3 bad races that year and they we're mechanical! Texas and Daytona can't remember the other race! Dungey, Dungey, Damnit Dungey! Thanks Mr James Stewart it has been awesome watching you race! Dammit Dungey..🤨

[@BlueTransAm83]

And I grew up with like Jimmy J, Jeff Ward, then onto MC etc. I never had a fav till I seen this kid. And he was a kid to my age. But man what a explosive change he brought. Last guy that road a 2 stroke like nothing I had ever seen. Golden Age will be that era, as time goes by.

James Stewart is the Greatest of All Time (G.O.A.T) period. 👍

All the way from Portugal. Thanks for making me belive. You are the best.

[@justinwoods7086]

James, thank you for doing this. I'm pumped your lovin life, golfing and doing your thing, you definitely earned it. We raced 80's together at Mammoth back in the day, you won even though you crashed and i passed you. You came by me so damn fast I couldn't believe it. I got 12th that day. Grant and Hansen were both in that race as well. I'd love to play a round of golf with you even though i suck. Cheers Bubba

[@againsttheodds52]

Thank you James. Thanks for the memories. You were always my favorite racer. Enjoy the fruits of your labor

[@tonymontana9240]

Your the best hands down! I never seen anyone tide like you. You are one of my hero's, and i wish you were still racing.

[@motohead033]

Thank you for all the memories, James Bubba Stewart!!! LEGEND.

[@flangmasterj]

Wishing you all the best James. You were the one reason I'd either tune in to New Zealand's stupidly delayed MX and SX coverage or search piratebay for the OG slicknick's torrents for the last 15 years. You were extraordinary on a dirtbike, an excitement machine whom always kept me glued to the screen. I'll religiously continue to watch your 2014 Toronto SX performance and never get tired of seeing you make the other pros look like amateurs. Cheers James. You are one of a kind.

[@rollin100s9]

Thanks for being a Class Act and giving people especially young kids someone to look up to, my daughter and I are purchasing Seven gear...

[@joeyolivas2430]

[@DG-zu3wh]

What a great watch. U have blessed us with many great moments and inspired many people like myself. Congrats JS7 on retirement.

[@justtyler6366]

Thank you James! You accomplished more than most people ever will in the sport. It was always a thrill to turn on supercross to root for you! And, the best part of everything was playing mx vs atv alive and riding at your compound!

[@64bdchaney]

James, as a follower of the sport of motocross and super cross, you set the bar high throughout your career. As said by others in this blog, you are Greatest of All Time! Ricky Carmichael would not have been titled GOAT without James Stewart. Thank you for your sincere efforts and proving to the world that the ones who are "different" can compete as everyone else. With your 2nd chapter of life, keep it going with your efforts and be the leader that you can and have been. The best of James Stewart is ahead and I will follow your lead.

[@dempseytillman6072]

I've watched this video a few times. It's a very special moment when we get to see someone share what is really in their heart. It's nice when we can experience someone's moment of clarity.

Your the man. Thanks for the great years.

[@timbeach2409]

People treat you differently because the drive, competitiveness, the flash of your riding and under all that is a kind selfless caring gentle human being that gives his time to fans and life. I raced in the mid to late 70's, when I was done I watched until the current riders were gone. Hanna, smith, bell, ward, decoster, all those guys. I started watching some later years and noticed Stewart, reed, dungy and others, the flash was back. Now most of you guys are gone and I don't watch much anymore. Thanks for being a great ambassador to motocross and inspiration to kids.

[@CRICKETFPV]

I never rode Motocross but have watched almost every video. Beast mode man . Congrats on coming to peace with what you really want to do with life . Enjoy it man. Hardwork pays off every time.
