- This is a motocross Highlights video on The Tallest Riders In Motocross History. In this video we progress through the riders that are just over 6ft and end with the tallest rider in the sport. In this video watch the best Tall Dudes battle it out with the best riders in the world, even battling each other! This video includes both past and present riders in Pro Motocross, Supercross, and MXGP. As a tall guy myself I've always enjoyed the tall riders as they usually have unique styles they have developed from the lack of room on or typical dirtbike. The riders listed in this video are riders who have had success in the sport, not just any privateer or local pro, so I understand there are some good tall riders out there that aren't included in this video. Who is your favorite tall rider? Comment Below! #motocross #supercross #mxgp

Who's your favorite tall Rider and Why?
Why didn’t you add their heights?
Me
Rick Johnson though he is only slightly above average height.
Ken de dycker. 6'4 and 210lbs ^^ Always looked like he was riding a 85cc :D
Pastrana. Because he had the ability (somewhat briefly) to be the fastest racer on earth, AND the best freestyler ever. I belive no one will ever do that again.
Hard for me to consider 6'1 tall but it is in moto. 6'3 or 6'5 on a dirt bike is hard to pull off longevity wise. Careers are usually cut short for taller guys (even 6'1 is tougher). Seems to me they are more prone to crashing due to weight hanging off of the bike.
100%
I was 6'1 at. 15, and I've kept growing. Things ain't lookin great 😅
6'4" at 16 when i broke my tib fib. Can confirm being tall has its downsides racing MX
I think having long legs enables you to get more drive to the rear wheel because there is a greater range of motion.
U should do "Best of Haiden Deegan Supermini" !!!
We need Robert hailey in here 6,7
How tall is jett??
I think 5'10, 5'11
@@wd840mxhighlights hes gotta be at least 6’0
Travis for two reasons one being the era was the peak of two stroke racing and he had mad skills on two strokes and two those rms were sick 125s and their 250s I don’t think anyone can argue either point too much
You don't normally see a taller heavy Rider winning multiple championships like Carmichael McGrath and Stewart These guys are tiny light in weight barely breaking 5'8 & 150lbs
yeah being a tall guy might have some disadvantages.

Hopefully Windham is in here too 🙏
Definitely my favorite then Travis.
Kinda cool to see the height of these riders and the only reason is I’m 6’3”. I know the bikes are built for the average height of 5’11” and I can feel it when riding. I would like to have plus size bikes such as a 2” longer frame and the foot pegs moved back about two inches. I’m gonna figure out a way to do that safely and try it out. With my feet back I would think it helps me control the bike better. It would be more of a natural position. Now dirt bikes are tall so that helps us tall people but the rider position on the bike is a little weird but of course after years of racing it seems normal now. Notice the most wins have been made by people around 6’ with Rick Johnson, Jeff Stanton, jeremy McGrath and others though the most wins ever I think is to Ricky Carmichael who is a bit shorter
Hey back in the McGrath and Stanton era there was a privateer named Gene Numack he would make some main events and was very tall, about Benny Blosses size. Look him up
Will do!
Where is Thomas Kjer Olsen ? He need to be in here
I only used riders a could verify there heights, it was harder than you would think lol.
Travis 6’3 right?
We’ll find out!
My fav tall rider is Six Time, my childhood hero
Chase Sexton 5ft11
Jeffery Herlings 6ft
Adam Cianciarulo 6f1
Aaron Plessinger 6ft2
Travis Pastrana 6ft3
Ron Lechien 6ft4
Dave Thorp 6ft5
Mike Bell 6'3 Broc Glover 6'!1 Jim Pomeroy 6'2
Mike "too tall" Bell.. rip
Can you please make a Baggett 250 El Chupacabra late race charge compilation?
Thats on the list!
Left out AC
AC is listed at 6ft. wanted to nclude 6'1ish and over.
He didn't race moto, but years ago i met David Knight at Guy Coopers pit bike shop before an endurocross in Guthrie, OK, and that dude was very tall. He made that KTM 30O look like a supermini.. I think he won that night too.
Meanwhile, Dani Pedrosa is 5'1", and Gaston Rahier, 3 time Motocross world champion and Paris-Dakar winner was 5'3"
Arminas Jasikonis
3:31 wtf
Gerritt Wolsink ?
Too Tall.
Stackable
Bell. Pomeroy, Glover, ....
Millsaps
He didn’t make the cut, he’s under 6ft, great rider tho.
@@wd840mxhighlights oh no kidding I thought he was at least six feet my bad
@@wd840mxhighlights he always looked tall on the bike maybe his body positioning and riding style. I can remember announcers in Supercross saying his long legs help him in the whoops
I swear he looked like 6’2 but it’s just how his body looks 😂😂
