Jeff. My dad started Redbud back in 1973.. He has passed 3 years ago. My step brother and sister run the track since my dad is gone. I rode the track back back when it was just grass.. I don't like how my step brother has laid out the track since. Some of thr old sections are still there tho.. I raced pro back in the late 70s .. Earned national number 74 one year.. Glad to see your riding something you like!!!.... Ray Ritchie....

[@JeffWalker84]

That’s so cool, thank you for commenting! We actually talked to your step brother Tim for a few minutes yesterday. Awesome group of people running the facility

[@rayr8136]

@@JeffWalker84 Yes he is.. He was a rider, not much of a racer.. He's a good rider tho.. I tricked out his minis when he was young.. Dad, Tim and I went to races back in the day as well. Will be watching to see you do well this year...

[@orngspy]

@@rayr8136 Now you're talkin about the days when I used to race red bud. The years I was there 77 78 79 husky help me in 77 ... 78 i was on a Honda... 79 I was on the LOP Yamaha. how I remember those days

[@orngspy]

@@rayr8136 I have kind of Forgotten but I think in 79 I won Trans Am support class race at red bud

[@rayr8136]

@@orngspy That's when I was getting help from husky as well. 2 bikes and money for parts.. We had the dirt bike shop at the old entrance of the track. It was upstairs in the barn to the right.. The barn is still there.. My brother hasn't torn it down... Loved racing back then.. In 79 I think, I had number 74..on my husky

[@tjstrasser5603]

At first I wasn’t very hoped about the KTM but it seems like it puts out a lot more power out of the corners. Its a good look for you!

[@helodriver20]

I switched from decades of Blue to a new 2019.5 KTM450sx-f Factory Edition in January and... ABSOLUTELY LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT! The colors and upgrades are fantastic. It's a beautiful bike and runs amazing!!! I quickly found it's more bike than I'm used to! LET's GO!!!! BRAAAAPPPPPP!

[@Mood694]

yup okay, I was skeptical but seeing you rip this hard on the first ride i'm scared how fast you'll be in a couple months!

[@danielmoon8425]

If the frame lasts that long...

[@Mood694]

Daniel Moon just saw that 😂

[@c3o2osu43]

Daniel Moon true

[@rileyhansen2214]

@@danielmoon8425 its a steel frame. Honda use Aluminum. Ktm are stronger.lighter weight, hydraulic clutch, better build quality - KTM (reason why I switched as well). Those aluminum frames are horrid.

Good moto dads ALWAYS hypes their kids up!! Much respect to the walker fam!

[@michaelj.kastner5165]

Finally people are going to understand how good this bike is !! Its super light weight,stupid powerful,, and handles like its glued to the ground!!!- TC works well also!!!

[@GodOfWar221]

Bro, if you don't catch the eye of one, or two sponsors....or don't get approached by a factory rep, I will be very surprised. The way you attacked the track with this brand new bike...you look so comfortable, and fast. You are definitely qualifying for Nationals this year. Can't wait to see you tear it up out there! Hope to see you at Springcreek this year.

[@eastsidebadger8416]

GodOfWar221 Are the nationals happening? I heard they were going to finish up the 8 rounds of SX.

[@JeffWalker84]

Thanks man I feel really comfortable!! Hopefully we can put in some good results

[@GodOfWar221]

@@eastsidebadger8416 As of right now, the Nationals are set to kick off on the Fourth Of July Weekend. Unfortunately, not at Red Bud...which seems kind've like a travesty. But, at least were getting Motocross. I follow Pro Motocross.Com to get the latest news. And as I stated, it's set to kick off in July, and run into October.

[@eastsidebadger8416]

GodOfWar221 Thank you..great news! I agree about Red Bud though..definitely should be the opener!

[@GodOfWar221]

Eastside Badger last I heard, WW Ranch was gonna be the opener this year. Course that could always change. I’ll be grateful wherever we end up. As long as we get Springcreek

[@mecalpsha4473]

*KTM is where it is at!!! --- lighter weight, steel frame (not aluminum huge/wide) and RACE READY*

[@WindowsPlaysFPS]

Holy.... Light years difference that's noticable even on video without a timer. The flow and speed is so there. This is only a new platform that I'm sure has some room on the table for even more refinement. Killing it jwalk!

[@jaxredline8158]

Heck yea! Looking forward to future races! I'm so stoked I found your channel

[@reeceeyles9924]

You are clicking. So stoked for you. I love my Honda’s, have been on a Ktm for two years and have loved every minute. And your track videos make me feel better about missing out on riding

[@andrews.]

I love watching you flow around tracks. I wish I could ride like that. You make it look SO fun. Best of luck with that beautiful KTM. Looks great.

[@ethanlankes1433]

Looking great Jeff! Been awesome watching the progress!

[@cfvgd]

Looked real nice! So smooth. Happy for you

[@KasenHanks449]

Big fan Jeff. Stoked for you. Loved seeing those big whips coming back into the videos to 😎

I can definitely tell your corner speed is on point. we all wanted to watch you hit laroccos leap but it’s ok! jumps for show, corners for dough!.. congrats bud, KTM definitely suits your style 💪🏻

[@quolemanpike6726]

Great suspension and a great bike work wonders! You look amazing man! Can’t wait to watch you rip up outdoors

Look soo good my dude so excited for u and too watch u this outdoors biggest whips most comfortable I've ever seen u

[@sandis168]

It feels like you are going already a couple seconds faster on a KTM, I put video with honda and video with KTM together, and with KTM you had faster laptime, great change, happy ;)

[@Monsterbeast-ig3kv]

Wassup Jeff, I’ve really started watching your vids man and I love them! I have been riding dirt bikes for 7 years now and when I say that you would leave me in the dust, I’m not even kidding. Keep up the great work man‼️

I had to check my calendar, thought I slept through a whole day! :)

[@jeremy_moto_192]

The weight difference is what blows my mind when I switch back from my Honda to my Husqvarna factory edition I love my Honda it’s super stable, rider triangle it perfect for 6’3’’ guy like me but I get so much more tired every lap I spin on it compared to my Husqvarna ! Love Both bike it’s hard making decisions now days with so many Good bikes!! Congrats on the KTM, making me miss my 2018 ktm 450 factory edition.

[@bencetorekes3411]

Looks at least 841% faster to me man! Happy to see u rippin that thing😁

[@SereneSaturnPlanet-ps4bl]

i love riding here the dirt is like fresh fallen snow it allows you to really dig into the throttle and get to know your bike. i hurt my hip on a open ride here once but my other trips here were always fun.

[@andrewowen9513]

It looks like the orange is treating you well! Such good flow even on a rough track!

[@635suz7]

Looking good and smooth!

Watching you flow through those motos was peaceful. Redbud will always be my fav track to ride/watch. Orange bike fits you well!

The footage looks so smooth! Almost looks night and day different from the Honda! I'm so stoked to see how you compete in the outdoors this season!! Rooting for you J-Walk!!

[@bupfu]

That riding skill is damn impressive! Really cool to watch, thanks for sharing and stay safe! 👍👍

You look so much smoother on it, Chuck it in where you like or as tight as you like and it just works 😎

[@chriscooper775]

Smooth consistent riding..Nice work

[@xspxzr1912]

100% support the switch, I know the go pro doesn’t serve much justice but I can tell a pretty big difference in the speed and cornering. Looking great keep it up J Walk👍

[@bensimpson9431]

Looking good bro, hoping over them breaking bumps is so smooth 🤘 feeling some top 15's this season

i have been racing a KTM 450 2020 for a while now and I love it broke my arm recently though got a good ole plate and 11 screws in me now LOL. I started using traction control 100% of the time because it helps no matter what. Try it out it helps a lot even on starts.

Wow the front looks super planted and controllable , nice!

Looks to be a match made in heaven!

[@jcbenson01]

Love it. Man. You were flying. I just got a new to me ‘21 sxf450. Coming off a ‘14 RMZ450 it feels like a 250 but has so much usable linear power.

Holy cow JWalk! You’re saucin that thing around!

Jeff, you look so much more comfortable on that bike. Your speed seems faster and your whips(scrubs) off jumps shows how comfortable you are. I don't recall seeing you do that on the Honda. Keep working hard and good luck with the Nationals this summer!

[@SamAust]

Hopping bumps, always a sign of comfort!

[@lolligaggin63]

i got a 2004 ktm450sx last year and tore it completely down and did a top to bottom rebuild, not a restoration. I love the early 2000s look of those bikes & just threw new parts on it. is by far my favorite bike in the garage. And also the oldest. But also the most used😂Love them orange bikes
