- Troy Lee speaks on his long lasting friendship with Motocross Legend Mitch Payton & reminisces over the memories they shared together.
//
Troy Lee is one of the most iconic and influential names in racing period. From the humble beginnings painting helmets in his family garage to being the only gear and apparel company to own a Supercross and Motocross team (and a factory team at that). He has painted helmets for every legend in every form of motorsport - Jeff Ward in Motocross, Supercross and Indy Car, Jeremy McGrath, Scott Dixon and many many more. This was a brilliant episode of Gypsy Tales and a fitting guest for Chapter 300 of the podcast!

I remember buying my first Troy Lee Designs visor back in the late 80’s. Coolest thing ever at the time.
Being an automotive painter by trade I ended up doing my own paint work but was very inspired by Troy’s work.
Troy Lee seems like a cool dude. It's pretty cool to hear about his early days and how he made it happen as a young man. When all you see is the finished product, you think about corporate branding and the resources behind it, but making custom visors out of the garage and customizing his own stuff - that's real creativity and entrepreneurship. Great interview
I was a Factory Troy Lee designs BMX rider. Won a World Championship riding for him. By far the Best helmets and gear. Thanks Troy.
Same
The stories you two could probably tell about good old flat landing comps and
Yeah same
@@d.w.richard7811 Those days were before Troy Lee. Of Flat ground landings and Comp 3s.
@@ronjessup9157 I recently bought some early 2000’s kits from THOR to wear when I ride my 03 kx125 got to love eBay
Love his products. Now I know he's an awsome dude. Thanks again gypsy
Great interview, keep it up!
My favorite interview!
I love hearing stories like this. I remember flipping through magazines back in the early 90s and seeing his helmet paint jobs. I remember seeing a street helmet that looked like a skull. So bitchin. As soon as I could afford his helmets that’s all I wear.
See you guys over at the tennis ball video.
A true American success story! Troy is the man!
I wish I had another TLD Speed Wing with the blinking light in it !!!!
Troy Lee is awesome. When I was young I always dreamed of having a TroyLee custom helmet. I couldn't afford anything so I tried painting my on helmet but it was hideous 😂
Amazing artist ❤
I remember buying a few of those visors
Troy changed the sport. It became so much more professional with his influence on team graphics and the entire presentation.
Interesting how communication barriers have been taken down we are starting to see and hear the heartbeat of America is anything but.Not enough respect or reimbursement is properly rewarded to the people more hungry than us.
Gold!!
The story about them leaving mitch in the car is gold,,, 😂
Wonder how many fins he sold
They were cool in 2003 lol
Always that 1 friends mom that thinks your the bad influence..an that 1 buddy your mom thinks is a bad influence
I met Mitch at the airport. Have a picture
I like troy but most people don't have the money to go to Japan to buy anything because it's cheaper to start a business and to have friends that are pro racers to get the business going like that. He had the determination so he would have found a way and he had a product guys wanted so it would have taken off eventually even if his friend didn't place a big order. Just like having a plane hanger to start a business is not normal he had help most people don't get when starting a business
1st comment!!
Hey do them’s and they’s I balls not work???? What y’all eeeeatin’?????
Mitch and troy are the coolest dudes in the history of moto not even close
