@mikevizerphoto video

[@kjmaury5116]

On another level! I think it’s time to move on up

[@cal77suzuki]

What a guy, great line choices!

[@syoho717]

Damn hell of a job pushing to the finish!

[@actionsportster7686]

my thought exactly ... his corner speed is what kept in it, and what pushed him to the front (twice).

[@roryrohrer7640]

What makes even more impressive is he did it on a 250f

[@aaronmarzec2018]

Eddie Rohrer funny thing is that 250f class in Supercross and Motocross produce faster lap times than 450 class

[@Mxrider92i]

I don't know what he's done to that suzuki but she surely got some ponies

[@stevestiffler9120]

Pretty sure it’s stock. This kid knows how to hold her wide and let her sang

[@121xc]

I wondered the same. My guess is probably signaling last lap...

[@MrBFII715]

That's the 250 B class, not limited so it's not stock. It still doesn't look shockingly fast either, ponies.. More like unicorns or sumpin'

[@justinlambert8778]

just because its the slowest bike in the class does not mean its not just as capable as other bikes

[@GreyeTate]

Lonnie McDonald it’s a Bar X Suzuki dude...it’s far from stock but his start wasn’t the greatest so it’s not like it’s a beast of a bike either. Austin Black is a good rider

[@1320fastback]

It was at this point that I realized that I am in F-class.

[@evanbastedo]

Lmao

[@PazLeBon]

for real

[@stevestiffler9120]

Didn’t know who Austin Black was until I saw him ride at Mammoth. He’s the real deal. Put on a absolute clinic in a stock suzuki 250. Could be a suzuki commercial.

[@petecampa]

Damn, thanks for bringing us along...when you hungry, you hungry...realing them in one at time...nice!!!

[@finks_journey6564]

Kept getting faster as the Moto went on 💪🏻 awesome ride !

[@TORKiT]

Awesome come back! Passing them boys in bunches.

[@slpn9t]

Was watching this in the recommend section, had to click on it and watch! Well done dude, you were awesome to watch.

[@joepiro3963]

In the ZONE, magical moments you'll keep that memory. Thanks for the ride. BRAVO!!

[@MegaChase31]

PNW never give up! lets go blacky good vid mike

[@caydenthompson126]

Yeeeew🌲🔥

[@megaxboxgaming7491]

This guy has some real natural talent to do that!! Let's go!

[@itsmeforsure5475]

Nice ride and thanks for posting. You were faster in the corners and you aren't afraid to go outside or inside. That was fun.

[@scottyboy7462]

that’s gotta be the best footage of an insane comeback that i’ve ever seen!!! super impressed!!

[@TheYBGOON]

Watch lapraz vs Bradford at the bmx worlds final. Bradford was recovering from a broken wrist and had it strapped and lapraz hit or unclipped out the gate. The footage maybe olf but it's a great comeback. BicycleMotoCross motocross and supercross are amazing

[@deckmonkey1459]

Were you using Nitrous going through the sand section? The 2-3-2-2 in the rhythm section was fast but the next lap going Ronnie Mac 2-3-3-1 was killer.

[@markollivier1010]

Great ride bud. Showed a ton of heart right there ,

[@geneparker168]

When u hear them brakes hollering, u know ur pushing the equipment to its limits.. awesome ride, hope sum1 see's this vid and puts you on a factory or satellite team...

[@chadplzak9792]

Or it just needs brake pads ?🤔

[@sertone777]

Wow , that was intense! Awesome!

[@josephforcino6399]

You and that Suzuki were taking names. Good job.

[@davidjessee7701]

Awesome ride! Great skills and determination! Congratulations

[@mystyle360]

Way to go Austin ... You are an amazing rider ... Ive been blessed to watch you grow ... No its time for you to beat 216 at TNMX ... See you in september

[@caydenthompson126]

That would be a dope battle #NWBoys🌲

[@OscarCuevas99]

A man on a mission!🔥 what a recovery dude 👏🏽 awesome!!!

[@chrisdaniels9285]

Epic ride. Looking forward to Washougal national And watching this kid ride.

[@eric6rock]

If only money wasn't a problem I would want to race moto full time and looking straight foward towards the future but then again, we all have to struggle

[@MiikeyLawless]

Money is like 90% of making it to the pros these days lol.

[@annabellewolfgang7177]

I just want to race armature weekends at Spring creek, probably will be 30 by the time I can afford doing it

[@MiikeyLawless]

@@annabellewolfgang7177 then you can ride in the vet class haha

[@Saundersstrong]

Epic. This is where conditioning and heart shine. nice race!!

[@JR-qz3zt]

That was intense to watch. Great job!!!

[@GMan2670]

Stomped it. Well done. Great riding

[@nigelmills5915]

Great riding. Nice come back 💪✊ #nwm15

[@colorider903]

Great job!!

[@andrewreebel7967]

I'm calling you out for rolling that tripple in the middle of the rythem section! Definitely 450A

[@atlas-x5717]

That was freaking awesome!!!!!

[@PokeyCottons]

Imagine watching some KZbin videos that rank Suzuki last in their shootouts, and then actually thinking that other brands are astronomically better.

[@_caden_6481]

Pokey Cottons yea they focus on the microscopic differences of the different brands and blow them out of proportion. It’s the rider that makes the difference

[@chamisi]

good speed, that was great to watch

[@donaldrevels4778]

Great job you are in very good shape and you are also very fast

[@tinshield]

Guy had a lot of confidence when cornering and was able to make up a lot of ground. Awesome.

[@EarthSurferUSA]

I have a lot of confidence when cornering. He has skill. There is a big difference today. It used to take skill to gain confidence. Not anymore. :)

[@davidthompson3634]

you've got it...never look back!

[@rogershipman3578]

The bike Motocross Action Magazine loves to hate getting a podium from way back in the pack.

[@annabellewolfgang7177]

Nice job dude I could tell you wanted it ha keep on pushing, I want to race so bad looks like a lot of fun I just can't afford and am far from buying a big bike yet but hopefully soon

[@andrewadamcik4024]

That was right beffore my moto I ligit saw that while I was on the like nice comeback bro

[@gmoney5729]

This kids on rails💯✊🏻

[@jeremiemoon9964]

What's up with him getting the lapper flag wove at him there at the end

[@laparkagamingsv]

terrible track crew.

[@trentlothringer2867]

Tough breaks at the start but definitely hard charger award!🏆

[@peacefulwarrior4078]

MOTOCROSS IS ALOT OF THINGS,BUT IT IS NEVER DULL BORING OR PREDICTABLE !!! ... GOOD RIDE !!! #307 87 CR-500

[@chess747]

America has all the best tracks, I wish Australia had the same type of tracks, they are awesome.

[@jamesrobert7155]

That RMZ must have some JGR!

[@stevestiffler9120]

Oh it will now after that ride

[@MegaLauraJC]

That's getting it done

[@Dust3y_Dav1s]

Boys quick in the corners. If you'll notice that's where he made all of his passes.. he and I are similar riders lol

[@michaellorimer4752]

Some people don’t understand how fast these guys he was passing are. Like these are really fast guys and Austin just left them in the dust like it was nothing

[@kennyblackwell34]

SICK RIDE

[@billbobaggins801]

Ummmmmmmmm, you also have to be a great rider as well!!! Nice ride 👌 No more Sand Bagging!!

[@theleagueofshadows100]

Good job dude 👍🏼

[@phooood3356]

That inside line was money.

[@colbyostbye212]

Talk about having the worst luck, that sucks. But at least he made an awesome comeback 👏🏻

[@SkyPowers]

That was FUN>>>>>> in the SCRUM!!!

[@Flynn-411]

Good job

[@Mi-AudioLab]

Awesome video

[@TheNickademas1]

i didnt read the full tittle and i was 4 min in and i started thinking like DUDE SHIFT THAT HOG! then i read the whole thing and was like oh!

[@lazurus222]

Corner speed off the damn charts !

[@tdg911]

wow hell of a job!

[@jaredleavermx94]

This kid is like Ken Roczen, never gives up

[@kylemcnab927]

That Barx team was good all week

[@earl6969]

Ah...story land. This one time on the ten commandments... Everybody has that story. LoL Great effort...

[@Mtnbike121]

Its like playing a video game for this guy

[@motochannel5267]

And he did it all on a suzuki.. damn he must have talent 😂😂😂

[@jamesspruill8621]

He makes it look so easy just think if he hadn't had gone down twice he would have won the race.

[@dimetime333]

Wow!

[@davidfoulkes8907]

Brill race 👍

[@chipper442]

Stellar ride, that’s how you regroup, focus, and get it done! What was up with the dude waving the blue flag at you near the end?

[@edmundovieira2541]

nice footage , great 2 scrubs from yamaha guy at 9.16 getting an advantage .

[@kxracer27]

So I'm from the 2 stroke days....its interesting to me so many guys are riding 250s in the 450 class now. And seem to be putting down faster laps...is this due to the lighter weight of the bike or the overrev/power delivery?

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Same with the pros. Often the 250 class is faster. I have been watching the live lap times on the net.

[@themanstan0785]

OhThree636 it’s due to the rider, moron

[@itsjustaguy27]

Question i know im a year later but uh can u bore an motor in these class like 250-270cc or 450-480 cc can you run big bore kits on these motors

[@MOTOFIENDXXX-jr3qv]

Fastest guy in that one- he goes down twice and still gets a close 2nd. (also, notice what bike he's on?- for all of the Suzuki haters?)

[@patiencehaven8595]

Looks like a guy sandbaggin the B class to come back from all that adversity

[@chadplzak9792]

Haha yea damn sandbaggers glorified sandbagging b rider

[@Anii6969]

I mean it's not even about giving up when it comes to this kid. He was just determined to not get smoked.

[@steveareno6696]

This would be a great Suzuki Commercial

[@Bunno1177]

Chaos

[@WaterandGround]

is it faster to case jumps?

[@lmtada]

Impressive, against 450’s. From 30th to what 2nd or 3rd? Definitely on gas harder, jumping farther, not following, Nasty Ruts. Congrats.

[@chillzbeangaming]

You have to give the guy that turned his bike around all the Credits to help someone you are trying to beat help at a national championship race someone finds that guys name

[@nolanwarner5167]

He was getting the bike off his bike so he could go. Not sure if he was helping

[@marenooomen9574]

he looked pretty mad tbh , dont think he just helped

[@christopheralamangos2638]

Corner speed is incredible

[@EarthSurferUSA]

I am surprised, with his reflexes, he did not just "blip" over the bike in his first crash. I wish a pro racer can pass this much, (like RC did), but the tracks are too easy for the pros, and everybody is the same average speed.

[@americanhunter9985]

I need help what do I do if my son is 11 almost 12 but very small like a 7yr old ama says can't race a 65 past 11 but 85 is just to big he is 62pounds of all heart though. I loved racing until I got career ending crash. I know I can lower a little on a 85 but not much. Thank you all and I'm not rich can't buy new bike every

[@WH1TEDEVIL]

Damn

[@ThaBeardedVet]

What did he place

[@therealmmm7222]

We would’ve got first no doubt.

[@chuckcastle7709]

Sandbaggerrrrrr

[@joshuanewby]

***BAGGER ALERT*** HAHA, Just kidding! Way to push it all the way to the end! #Inspired

[@jaradgreen6013]

Hey @Suzuki this is how you sell bikes.

[@MrBFII715]

Sandbaggaaaah, can we get a sandbaggah

[@mikevizerphoto]

Kodee Huggins it was his first full year in B class, not sure how to call that sandbagging but thanks for the comment!!

[@lazurus222]

Dude this guy is fuckin fast

[@Sketchy273]

my boy black on rails! lookin like the C class out there though, no aggression out of half those kids.. yikes

[@huskerider]

Crazy Fucking son of a bitches!!! You were rolling. When those three dudes let you in the middle, two on the left, one on the right, you were getting it!! Nice ride man.

[@mcchoco1019]

2019 rmz250?

[@2smokepipo812]

Mc Choco nah I think they’re 450’s in this race

[@mcchoco1019]

2SmokePipo yeah but the bike with gopro is 250f i think and it pull verry good👌🏾

[@2smokepipo812]

Mc Choco then dang he’s one hell of a rider to crash twice and still catch up and beat a bunch of 450’s for the win.

[@r31d73]

It’s a 450

[@mcchoco1019]

R31D no reving to high for a 450

[@EarthSurferUSA]

The only thing I would have done differently is just run over that guys bike. Everything else, I get schooled like everybody else on the track. :) That was my racing career. I had a flash of brilliance about 1% of the time on the track, so I became a machinist/engineer and now build fast little 2-stroke engines for a living. Thank God for MX and our free market, (what is left of it). :)

[@stephanoteani621]

My dude put some Sexton fuel in that bike

[@EarthSurferUSA]

I think you will find that after you turn pro, the tracks will not be much more challenging than this, and everybody will have them wired. That will make it very hard to win a few races in a row to gain the confidence you have now. I suggest you skip the SX series, (where the tracks make everybody about the same speed, and even corner speed does not matter much, making us slower), and just race the outdoor tracks as they still separate the talent better than cookie cutter SX track. If you are good on hard pack, I bet you would beat a lot of top pros on a track like that, because the FIM has forced our track owners to add a lot of sand. You will find, it is the FIM who makes USA racers slower. As a MX fan/racer/rider since 76, I see it in the evolution. The more the FIM has control in the USA, the slower we get as professionals. We don't see greatness like you did here. We only see a fast average. We will see the difference at the 2019 MXofN,--and the FIM will cheer when we lose. (I am hoping this will be a underdog motivational year though). You got some speed kid. I want to see another American hero. It has been a while. You can beat the FIM!

[@casebabase]

was he being blue flagged?

[@RaptorVlogz]

Title should have been Austin Black EPIC comeback 450B Moto 2 (on a SUZUKI!)

[@budweisburg5159]

Dude out fucking standing. Well all except for your poor bike and tge hellacious ass whoopin you put on your machine. Congrats brother .
