The 2023 Anaheim 1 Supercross is almost here and we caught up with Red Bull KTM's Cooper Webb during press day to ask him the hard hitting questions. Cooper didn't hold back, explaining that he was very hard on his team in the off season, making sure they did everything possible to make him comfortable on the 2023 KTM 450SXF this season. Cooper also talks about riding stock bikes, FELD positioning him in the second row at the press conference (instead of the front row with Tomac and Sexton) and he shared about his mindset on the Baker's Factory in Florida to ride and train with Aldon Baker.

This guy rides with so much heart. I'd really love to see Cooper win tonight.
Hope everyone has a safe racing season! No injuries due to bike failure!
Refreshing to hear honesty. Coop has never been my favorite. But this interview and press conference has put me behind him. It’s like people forget he’s a 2 time champ. He’s a bad dude!
I’ve been a fan since he won the 250 outdoor title racing with a broken scaphoid all summer
Key words......"I'm here to win"👍
I'm super pumped for Cooper, this 450 class is loaded. Only 22 spots available for the main. Can't wait.
Excellent questions, great interview.
OK coop let's go , like the confidence 👏
Gotta stay up till f**king 1a.m. just to see the race
Go get em Coop !!!
Says it how it is!! Go Coop!!
A1 is like Christmas day for me
“The bike sucked last year…. We changed pretty much every this year.” -Webb
“The riders had too much input last year and changed the bike too much in the wrong directions. The bike was good, it was the riders.” -DeCoster
I’m going with what the riders say on this one
I think were gonna see a different Cooper this season. His key words, Im here to win.
💯
He looks genuinely excited too.
Has to be better than he was last year! If he's good again,probably still going to have to fight hard for a spot on the podium.
His problem last year was not his mind or his will to win being gone.
If he has the bike under him this season,..It will be the same as those seasons when his bike was working right for him. It may not necessarily mean a championship but he will be back in real contention for every race. Like before,..those guys will have to beat Webb for the win.
Last year it was very obvious that the new bike was way off the mark.
As opposed to what being there for?
Webb is not out of any race any time, the man gets with it indoors
Nice to see Copper hungry!!
Super pumped ie my 🐓
Cooper was the best rider in the main at A1. Some were faster earlier, but they fell by the wayside. And now that he’s got a whiff of confidence, it’s gonna be hard to derail the Cooper train. Eli’s in for a scrap!
If you can make a slower bike go fast, then you’d naturally make a fast bike even faster right? Makes perfect sense to me. A great rider can win even on a POS, look at Magoo riding for KTM, broke bikes in half trying to catch the Hondas he got kicked off of.
Such a solid interview
You Want Me to Win…Give Me a Good Bike🤣🤣🤣🔥
Guess we are fixing to find out how much of a difference Aldon makes.
I hope Cooper quiets the noise.
Its not the bike but the training, it keeps you discipline and surprisingly you feel more energetic or energized and thats what he didn't even acknowledge last year. I think he really feels good now and just making excuses about the bike not being good last year, its Aldon baby.
this guy won 2 championship and not being treated like the other previous champions. He going to be the bad dude this season. LET'S GO COOP!
... went with 20 lb overweight in the season 2022 - but blames the bike for his bad results. His KTM and Huski teammates made way better results with the same base. Of course you need some time to dial in a new generation bike, but come on...
Hope Coop can make a come back
I told them flat out that the bike really sucks but I meant it in a good way of course , was very respectful about it lol.
Great interview. Great job by Cooper Webb. Rode smart. Bike looks sweet.
This dudes about to cause sleepless night for Tomac. Obviously, E3's the favorite but seeing Coop charge with 8 minutes to go he's still in 8th or 9th ? He charged like he believed he deserved to be up front and when Copp believes in himself an dhis equipment ? He's a problem
Go Cooper!
I would love to see the fire back in CW2
If he were the best KTM rider then I could see him putting down last years bike...but he wasn't the fastest on it...
Love us some Coop 👊👍✌️✊😉
Love listening to the mind of cooper webb! Hes got such good perspective on the sport!!
Cooper is such an awesome dude he really follows the sport and I believe he will be up top this year. Watched Cooper in 2016 and man he was fast. He can get it done
Great interview. Seems so relaxed. Think coops is gonna ut a serious shift in.
He is finished will be lucky to be in top 5 by series end
I want to watch right now damn it
Lol : )
Yea I bet it's the bike..
Tomac has championships from Honda, kawasaki and Yamaha, he had ups and downs but definitely not the bikes fault lol
Make em eat their doubts coop! Always a fan!
i been saying it last year ..I dont think the guys like their KTMs this season ..KTM must love Webbs remarks .
If the rumors are true and the whoops wont be as big he has a better chance at winning, if not he wont be able to keep up.
Puting Barfa in the front and Coop in the back was disrespectful for sure! But it just ignites the fire in him even more.
Cooper is such a talent if he lives up to his potential he will be hard to beat.
I noticed Cooper lost some weight at bakers factory? I'm thinking he is gonna have a great series!
Last year he almost won Daytona, dungey almost won an outdoors race after 5 years of retirement consistently top 5 on the #5 ktm, Malcom finished 3rd in sx.
Saying the bike sucks doesn’t help your team (many hard working people) diagnose any issues, cmon man
Two time champion. The team doesn't ride the bike he does. Anytime the mechanic or manager thinks he knows more about their bike than the rider that team rarely if ever does well. Prove me wrong , l can provide plenty of examples to prove my point.
It was known ktm was on a down year from day 1 last year
@@mrbige7244 how is that if ktm finished 2nd and 4th at the first race last year
It absolutely helps your team. Lord. You don’t have to love him but don’t be silly.
Jeff Emig wouldn't run Kawasaki's titanium front axle and after a lap if they put on his bike without telling him he would demand that it was removed. The other riders didn't have a problem with it. Each rider has a feel they are looking for. Just because it worked for Dungey really doesn't mean anything for Webb. Different sizes, weights, and styles.
Hope to see you in form bro!! Always rooting for Webb !
Class act. I hope KTM listened. We've all heard how bad the bike is. I applied KTM for always trying to make updates, last year, they went backwards. It happens. Let's hope they fixed it for the riders on the team and us customers can expect a better bike in 2024 or 25.
I couldn't get past halfway listening to the nonsense coming out of his mouth. It's hard to believe when is older teammate takes a win and places better than him.
Does this mean their should be a discount on 2022 model?? Ktm give us the discount code at this point your own rider just trashed you product
All these guys are going to be swimming with a shark....a shark with a YELLOW FIN!!!!!!!!!
“I could say what I think… but what do you think…” said no moto media guy ever!! That is why you’re the best hands down. I’ve commented this same thing on other interviews of yours. You’re the only one who gets it, seriously.
Revenge cw2 lets gooooo
So is he basically riding a 2021? I was a little confused when he said they changed the chassis
He still has to run the same frame due to the production rule, when they say chassis, it's suspension, motor mounts, linkage, tripple clamps, ect ect, things they are allowed to change that will make the chassis feel more comfortable🤙
When in doubt, blame it on the bike....lol
If you can’t get the bike bike tuned for you then yes that’s how it works
Two time champ. The guy can ride.
@@AJourneyOfYourSoul wow who would’ve thought? Same thing with Tomac in 2021
Obviously you don’t understand motocross or ride at all. Can’t blame you for ignorance but wrong. You should read more about Moto or go ride, you’ll understand
That’s so messed up. Two time champ!!!
A1 Baby!!! LET'S GET IT!!! TWIST THE GRIP AND LET IT RIP!!! WTFO!!! LET'S GOOOOO!!!
After seeing this… im predicting, if cooper can get a start, he’s gonna win A1. MAYBE, not the championship… MAYBE he will. I’m not a huge Webb fan at all but he is a 2 time champ and he is apart of the KTM team that in the last decade has dominated..
His bike sucked. Put they go off his input to make it right.
If the bike sucked last year, it was your fault. You have so much money, engineers, specialty parts, and mechanics. It was your fault for losing.
Bike sucked? Dungy sure didn’t have any trouble on it and he’s been retired for how many years now? 🤪
But wait I thought it was the rider not the bike
GO CHASE!
I better you could put Eli or Chase on a KTM / Husky or anything else and they would bring it still to the podiums. That’s what a pro does. Not blame the bike or anything else. Take accountability for your own actions and mistakes peeps.
This comment is not aging well 😂
yea i was pretty bummed about that coop had a bum bike. i think ktm needs to stop changing so much in between years. and when it goes wrong like it has a few times. they need to release 1000 older frames sell them and put coop on the bike he rides the fastest laps
Concur; last years bike sucks sooooooo bad! Garbage package.... The Husky was better. Ktm was crap. Good Job Coop, go get em buddy!
Webb is washed up. Time to retire.
We'll see if he's washed up after this season
Is it hard being so stupid?
Another couch potato 🙄
Washed up? Lmao keep hating bud
@@moto3463 washed up.
KTM sukc
Says someone too beta to even ride a bike. Hey next time you diss something spell it right.
First let me say I am rooting for Cooper. I was rooting for him before he ever won a championship and my friends thought I was crazy because they didn’t believe he could ever win. However I have a great amount of knowledge in behavioral science and there is a certain type of movement called the chained elephant it happens when a person is nervous and they move their feet back-and-forth in a rocking motion. If you notice when he’s talking about being confident in winning the championship as soon as he makes the statement you see him perform the chained elephant. However when he is being asked about what he said to the team and he replies he told the team the bike sucked. We all know he’s telling the truth right there and he will also notice when he makes that statement he does not do the chained elephant. Just because a person rocks back-and-forth does not mean they are performing the chained elephant however when they’re ask about something that is important to them and you’re wondering if the person is confident the fact that he performs that chained elephant right after answering the question is not a good sign that he actually believes the statement himself. you will notice the entire time he is discussing being in the back row with the guys who have not won races he is performing the chained elephant. It is something he does when he is nervous.
Just an observation
I would be nervous too if I was lining up to race in the depth of that class it is not going to be an easy year for anybody on that line. I am not being negative or trying to trash talk or throw shade at Cooper Webb in anyway. He is an awesome champion but I don’t believe that he has the confidence it will take to win this season
Webb has more championships than Barcia and Roczen, but both have won races, and Roczen still has more SX wins than Webb. Plus, with the sport going towards a mix of moto/sx, Roczen has a better career on paper if you put both together. Barcia, though I don't know why he was in front of Coop, his career outside of the 250s has been nothing but takeouts. They should have been swapped for sure. Plus they're really pushing this Roczen/Suzuki deal hard cause of all the views it's been bringing in. Webbs definitely playing the underdog though and it plays into his strengths, he will do better this season I think.
@@Slipvayne1 I talked to Roger just before thanksgiving and I kind of shocked myself actually because I asked him at point blank…’so are you excited about this year?’
He replied…’no…I’m nervous. Cooper gained 20lbs and only lost 10…he still needs to loose 10 more’
Granted Roger is never gonna be satisfied. He’s the man for a reason but he genuinely did not seem excited about this year
I don’t know where the bike is but I know JA, ET and that kid on the 23 are feelin really good.
It’s gonna be gnarly for all of em
Hope AC and all of em stay safe…hopin the 51 doesn’t ride like a spode anymore
Too dangerous for that kinda riding
These troglodytes that love that kind of stuff are the kind of people who have never been in that situation on a dirtbike and they have no idea the difference in speed between now and the days when Bob Hannah were racing
There are very few people I will Never bet against.
We can read all we want into the mental gymnastics.
Until you know what's inside, its all moot.
T med,top comm tech school
@SKRIBBLES yeah I've heard and seen that same statement before. Good try though.
@@395PRS are you stating your titles on youtube? Lol
the classic "bike sucks"
Excuses excuses....guess he didn't pray enough...HAHAHAHA
