How This One Man Changed The Entire World Of Motorsports ( Travis Pastrana )
#travispastrana #xgames #actionsports #freestyle #motocross
Travis Pastrana is a bonafide action sports legend, a Freestyle MX pioneer, a fearless stuntman
a godlike motorsports icon and one radical dude.
For more than 3 decades, Travis Pastrana's body of work has been a huge catalog of chaos filled with unexplainable feats of human achievement, death-defying spectacles, superhuman levels of pain tolerance, and more holy sh#t moments than any athlete in history.
But above all, Travis Pastrana is a miracle, and sometimes it is hard to believe someone like this even exists. So, in this video, we will look at the outrageous and often unexplainable career of Travis Pastrana.

No other quad could drop you in the center of chaos and allow you to see what you were made of, like the Yamaha Banshee. A machine that could reach speeds of nearly 100 mph and deliver an experience like no other. In this video, we will look ...

In an act of corporate sabotage, they would intentionally destroy the 1982 Maico 490 and build a de...

    I had the pleasure to ride a Banshee and a race ready Suzuki 500 out at Glamis back in the late 80's. I thought the world of that Suzuki 500. I rode it for a couple days with the Paddle tires and just crushed everything I saw. I got on a friends Banshee and was very surprised and immediately wowed by it's speed and acceleration. I found the Suzuki 500 Quadzilla in it's race ready form a bit more stable for my liking out there as the Banshee was brand new and had no mods outside of the paddle tires. That Banshee flew. Both were massive fun out in the dunes of Glamis. Nice revisiting those watching this.

    As a malaysian, valentino rossi has a special place in my heart, so does the majority of malaysian motogp fans.. He debuted in 1996 at the malaysian motorcycle grand prix(125cc) and rode his last race with a malaysian team.. Motogp is not the same anymore without him..
