You didn’t think we were just going to post some incredible photos and leave you hanging, right? You know by now that when there’s smoke, there’s usually fire. In this case, where there were still cameras, there was also a video camera. Check out some riding with Geico Powersports Honda’s Justin Barcia.

March 12th, 2009 at 8:06 pm

March 12th, 2009 at 8:20 pm
im not a fan of barcia he seems cocky
March 12th, 2009 at 8:24 pm
no honda just gave him a factory bike just for lorettas this year they have a new amateur program where they give amateurs factory geico hondas just apply you might get one yourself
March 12th, 2009 at 8:25 pm
cocky? hes a kid that is awesome at a sport that is his whole world. wait till hes an adult b4 u judge him on his personality.
just sit back and enjoy. its gonna be an awesome season
March 12th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
dude he is cocky and super dirty …but oh so fast …def gonna be fun to watch
March 12th, 2009 at 8:50 pm
nice video.
March 12th, 2009 at 9:03 pm
The kid is really fast, has been dominating the Amature nationals, but will be racing against the best this summer. He will not win this year, but next year he’ll probably take it.
March 12th, 2009 at 9:31 pm
that is a tight video, cant wait to watch the nationals, and you all know what sond that was?
March 12th, 2009 at 9:31 pm
song?
March 12th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
ive know this kid since i was 12(currently 15) and hes unreal on and off the bikes. anything he sets his mind to, he pushes that hard to get it right. He is very agressive, but his moves arent dirty, he just gets the point across that he IS faster than you and can win titles. hes coming for the title and nothing can get in his way…. nothing.
March 12th, 2009 at 9:48 pm
anonymous do you have a life or do you spend all day posting your dumb comments on transworld all day.. really grow up dude!

March 12th, 2009 at 11:00 pm
Your an idiot.. It’s called confidence, it comes with winning all those amateur titles.
March 12th, 2009 at 11:14 pm
Wow………looks like their all close. He is right there with them. Time will tell.
March 12th, 2009 at 11:18 pm
Good luck Justin,

March 13th, 2009 at 7:03 am

March 13th, 2009 at 7:22 am

March 13th, 2009 at 7:47 am
barcia will win the championship this year.
March 13th, 2009 at 8:15 am
the video dont working :S
March 13th, 2009 at 8:24 am
it all about u. u think u know. what u always say. it all a big lie. u think ur special. we no ur not. don’t tell me who i should be or do. so shut up, shut up, shut up. don’t wana hear it… “am i talking to the wrong person?” “i thought something was up!”
March 13th, 2009 at 8:28 am
justins going to kill it outdoors but he wont finish the season, going to be one to watch for sure….
March 13th, 2009 at 8:37 am
Good LUCK!
He can win some racers
March 13th, 2009 at 8:54 am
Nah, Barcia is not going to win it this year. That would be sweet if he did. I am anxious to see how his bikes are gonna hold up. That kid revs it to the MOOON!!!!
Good Luck this year, Justin!
March 13th, 2009 at 9:24 am
Where can i see the lap times ??
March 13th, 2009 at 9:42 am

March 13th, 2009 at 10:26 am
barcia will win the championship for sure
March 13th, 2009 at 11:03 am
The lap times I posted I took from Ryan Morias’s mechanics pit board. I would say from watching that Searle and Wiemer looked to have the fastest times fallowed REAL closly by Barcia, Canard ,and Rattray and then Morias. the kid may be a champ in the future but not this year. As in supercross Wiemer is on it! He may surprise us all again.
March 13th, 2009 at 11:21 am
wtf are you saying your not making sense.
March 13th, 2009 at 11:46 am
hes super cocky, immature and a cry baby, he got spanked at the winter ams, claimed taylor futrell was cheating and then refused to race any more winter ams and skip out on Texas… well see how far that gets him in the pros
March 13th, 2009 at 11:52 am
WOW! good for you justin. its been along time since ive seen you around the district 34 area.Im glad you made it. good luck with everything brother. #280
March 13th, 2009 at 12:20 pm
I bet the video is badass… too bad I havnt been able to see one of them since the new player. and its not my pc. I have a brand new $2500 pc and the fastest roadrunner you can get. I just hope you guys can sort it out cause Im tired of not being able to watch the cool vids
March 13th, 2009 at 12:56 pm
my makita zook just came in. i had to go pick it up at the fedex because i missed the signature. LOL
March 13th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
looks like they were testin out silencers…if you look close there are a couple shots of him running the single silencer rather the duels.
March 13th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
will you seriously just stop already?
March 13th, 2009 at 1:49 pm
spoiled kid who has been groomed since day 1 and had it all given to him
March 13th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Doesnt matter how you got it… matter’s how you use it.
Also, You guys think this guy will win the championship this year? lol did anyone see how fast JLaw was in THE 450 class??? Only racing will really tell. Gunna be a good year.
March 13th, 2009 at 2:58 pm
All top people do it. I do it, it’s according to what the situation is. Like hit a jump pinned in forth shift down to third and hit the rev limiter right as you land and Berm Blast the close corner.
March 13th, 2009 at 3:00 pm
They need to start doing those helmet cam’s again. Those were sweet.
March 13th, 2009 at 3:01 pm
he hes not an idiot Tsmith that kids a total jerk. u have noo idea.
March 13th, 2009 at 3:06 pm
ya thats it…beeing retardedly fast got him nowhere right? your a joke
March 13th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
^
March 13th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
Is that why he’s not in Texas?
March 13th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
i find it very interesting he has no leatt brace, just that davi doughnut. i swear leatts are becoming standard equipment.
March 13th, 2009 at 5:07 pm
No, the title is completely mine.I’ve got it all rapped up. Barcia sucks! I could lap him in like…a lap!!!! And after I lap him I will just frollick away on my magical pony and carry the piece of plastic that tells me I’m better than you off to my secret imaginary world, while playing paddle tennis on my nose with a slight case of the hiccups!!!!
March 13th, 2009 at 5:13 pm
he had nothin as a kid there buddy..came from a poor family and now look at him..get a life
March 13th, 2009 at 5:24 pm
What track is that?
March 13th, 2009 at 5:33 pm
he doesnt over rev u just gotta keep the revs high and thats how he does it #162
March 13th, 2009 at 5:37 pm
ok search justin barcia on you tube and tell me he dosent overrev his bike. this video doesn’t quite show how bad it is.
March 13th, 2009 at 6:26 pm
LOL yea mitch p called me and said he wanted me to ride his factory bikes for fun, trail rides and back flips.LOl
March 13th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
yeah hell probably be top those new guys in lites always do good comin in to pros i dont think he will be intimidated by anyone
March 13th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
keep the revs high? he isnt riding a 2 stroke.
im nobody special, but for all the hype behind barcia, he looks super sloppy. i for see alot of blown up bikes and lots of crashes. good luck to him and factory connection tho.
March 13th, 2009 at 7:19 pm
ive met and rode with a few different up and coming riders. along with riders that are already pro and popular, non of which act like barcia. i see another mike alessi in the making… believe the hype?
March 13th, 2009 at 7:20 pm
cocky and dirty is the perfect description. but, when he gets into the pro ranks, that will end soon when he is getting it handed to him.
March 13th, 2009 at 7:36 pm
u guys are posers!!!!
March 13th, 2009 at 7:38 pm
anaonmous is a poser and so are you f a g!
March 13th, 2009 at 7:53 pm
im prety sure the “fourm monitor” wouldnt say wtf
March 13th, 2009 at 8:05 pm
The track is Glen Helen in San Bernardino, CA
and the song is…
Rise Against - Dancing for Rain
March 13th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
yall are insanely retarded in the head if you think he over revss. the kid has balls to hold a factory bike wide open.
lets see you try that.
March 13th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
hes a bad son bicth
March 13th, 2009 at 8:45 pm
i see another james stewart, look at how cocky bubba was, he matured after he got in the 450 class.
and i say barcia is the next bubba, thats just my opinion!
March 13th, 2009 at 8:49 pm
not the most impressive video DON!!!!!!!! Was that all he had, many mistakes and i didnt see the speed. Learning curve points North! CTFFFFFFF
March 13th, 2009 at 9:56 pm
Awsome scrub at 00:55, good luck in outdoors!
March 13th, 2009 at 11:22 pm
SKETCHY STYLE SORRY!!!!!!!!!! TOO MUCH HYPE!!!!!! THIS DUDE IS A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN. SLOW DOWN AND RIDE SMART AND SMOOTH JUSTIN.
March 14th, 2009 at 1:41 am
sick video Lutes….you guys are idiots. Barcia works his ass off at MTF just wait tell glen helen he will be up front !
March 14th, 2009 at 1:42 am
I cant stand watching him ride, he panic revs every jump!!!
March 14th, 2009 at 4:17 am
Are you serious, if youv’e watched any other videos of him riding he panic revs the hell out of his bike. It it were a two-stroke not so big of a deal but a 4-stroke is not ment to be in such high RPMs that long. You should never ride a 4-stroke like that. For a 30 minute plus 2 lap moto I would not be surprised to see mutiple engine failures. It doesn’t take balls to hold it wide open while your in the air, and if you wathch most goon riders that is exactly how they do it. He does have hella speed in the corners and he does get on it early there. I will give him that. But watch, after he starts training more with the factory he’ll back down on the over reving.
March 14th, 2009 at 5:00 am
WHATS UP WITH THE SINGLE PIPE? I KNOW A SINGLE PIPE WORKS BETTER ON THE CRF 250 BUT I THOUGHT ALL FACTORY SUPORTED HONDA TEAMS HAD TO USE THE DUAL EXAUSHT?
March 14th, 2009 at 5:02 am
Opps sory for caps.
March 14th, 2009 at 7:47 am
it dont work get a new player pleeeaasee !!!!
March 14th, 2009 at 7:48 am
Come see me at Glen Helen in 09. Then make your decision!
March 14th, 2009 at 9:03 am
Is this really Barcia? If so good luck at Glen Helen! Why does you have a single pipe?
March 14th, 2009 at 11:44 am
wtf?
March 14th, 2009 at 11:54 am
i c jb151 as being another wild child like stroupe for this upcoming nationals and needing to back it down a hair. my hope is for stroupe or izzy for the 250 title.
March 14th, 2009 at 7:35 pm
he looks fast and i know he is fast but loks like he could use for srtength on the bike. Seems to get thrown around to easy!!
March 15th, 2009 at 9:20 am
barcia is my pick for the title. he will be consistent and win many races.
March 15th, 2009 at 12:49 pm
dude its a 250f, not a 450. you cant just lug it throught the corners and up hills by being gentle with the throttle. you gotta keep it pinned so your rpms stay high enough that the bike wont bog down. and some of those jumps on a 250f, if you aint pinned to the nuts just wringing every little bit of speed you can out of it, its gonna hurt when you land!
March 15th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
Hmmm ok? Only raced one Winter Ams this year, and won all 4 motos. Before that, he dominated the Winter Os.
MX 250A/Pro stk Barcia 1,1 Futrell 4,3
MX 250A/Pro mod Barcia 1,6 Futrell 6,4
SX 250A/Pro stk Barcia 1 Futrell 5
SX 250A/Pro mod Barcia 1 Futrell DNF
SX OpenA/Pro mod Barcia 5 Futrell 7
Fastlap of the week in SX and MX = Barcia
He’s not afraid of Futrell, he’s afraid of Dean Wilson.
March 15th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
ok watch this vid. hitting the rev limiter over jumps wont make you any faster. It dosent really matter since he dosent pay for his motors. just makes him look like a goon.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-4NN4ZtQGg
March 15th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
wow ugliest gear set up ever
and ugly neck brace wowwwwwwwwwwwww
March 15th, 2009 at 9:02 pm
i here u on the blown up bikes he is on a honda 250f
March 15th, 2009 at 9:03 pm
damnnn hes looking so fast…hope he does well this season and awesome song too u guys should put more rise against on ur videos!…great job
March 16th, 2009 at 1:28 am
That is the sloppiest style I have ever seen for someone that fast. Beautiful scrub tho.
March 16th, 2009 at 9:17 am
yeah you guys are a bunch of retards…. Hes hitting the rev limiter b/c hes whipping it on that jump… he has to get the bike back around, therefore reving the bike brings it back around. its kind of like a panic revv it sounds like, maybe he thought he couldn’t bring it around in time…You guys just need to get over it!!!!)
March 16th, 2009 at 9:35 am
you guys are all dumb barcia will not win dungey will not win weimer will not win all those foreign guys will not win the guy that will take the title is sean borkenhagen he is the g.o.a.t.
March 16th, 2009 at 10:03 am
I rode with Barcia a couple of years ago.. he could whip it the best on the track. hes a pretty nice guy tooo.
March 16th, 2009 at 10:38 am
for all of the people who havnt met him personally need to stop judging him by a video, how can you tekll somone just by a 2:30 vid……
March 16th, 2009 at 12:53 pm
his mom is my pick…. watched him take out one local kid then get schooled by another one, but I love the style, and fitness is there too. its gonna b a good year
March 17th, 2009 at 12:15 am
wow your a jack ass did you watch the video at all??? im pretty sure you dont have to hit the rev limiter on EVERY SINGLE LITTLE JUMP WHIPPED OR NOT
March 17th, 2009 at 3:22 am
sry to burst ur bubble but it would appear weimer won practice according to Delbets stats.
not tryin to be a dick or a “POSER”. Just throwin that in there
March 17th, 2009 at 9:23 am
you guys are all stupid james is the best rider no one can keep up with him
March 17th, 2009 at 2:32 pm
ok did you actually click the link?? no one needs to hit the rev limiter on every single little bump or jump. so I guess you and barcia are both retards. I dont really see any pros riding that goonish.
March 17th, 2009 at 2:34 pm
seriously finally someone else realizes this. WATCH THIS VIDEO!!!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-4NN4ZtQGg
March 17th, 2009 at 5:03 pm
i agree he revvs out when its not really nessicery and hes pretty sketch too i was at the gold cup and got to ride sx track before mini os and he was ridin it too he was about too kill himself doin alot of goon moves every one was sayin it too alot of indos
March 17th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
thats what hes goin to have to do if he wants to win any pro races
March 17th, 2009 at 5:09 pm
i ride ktm and rootin for searle
March 18th, 2009 at 9:12 am
He will be up front, just needs to stay healthy.
March 18th, 2009 at 11:13 pm
he is not fast enough to come in and win his rookie year.
not at all
March 19th, 2009 at 8:36 am
He dose over rev his bike look on youtube when hes at Loretta Lynn’s 2008 and then post back saying he dosent over rev… that bikes bouncing off the limiter evey time he remotly goes 3 cm off the ground
March 19th, 2009 at 8:36 am
not hatin still fast as fu@#
March 19th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
whats the name of this song
March 20th, 2009 at 12:13 am
i think most of you are jealous that he has a factory ride….hahahaha revving or not, you all wish you could ride like that
March 20th, 2009 at 5:44 pm
who cares haha, hes clearly faster than both you goons so stop worryin about it
March 21st, 2009 at 3:53 pm
WOW THAT VIDEO DOES make it look pretty bad his riding style is really choppy
March 22nd, 2009 at 7:31 am
he revs the shit out of his bikes but he’s probably faster then anyone who leaves comments
March 24th, 2009 at 6:24 pm
Evverybody sayin he is overrevving needs to learn the mechanics of the rev box.. You dyno ur bike and find the peak horsepower or torgue at a certain rpm. anything over that rpm an the bike wont put out as much power. so u set ur rev limit at that rpm so u wont over rev an lose power.. its obvious that his powerband is set up more on the top end which explains why it sounds like an over rev.. an he rides like a bat outta hell but hes so good and smooth doin so.
March 26th, 2009 at 11:11 pm
I agree with ry629,we will see how long geico keeps his 250 running.Hey Mr.smith,Carmichael rode his bikes hard too,but he never hit the rev limiter like that.
March 27th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
ur a pussssy jlaw go to jail n find a butt buddy
March 30th, 2009 at 9:47 pm
mr. sk43 on a 450 the powerband is strongest in the mid rpm’s. so why run on the top end? But overall the way ur bike is set up is personal preference. I dont wanna argue so just let Barcia’s results do the talking. He’s not my favorite but he’s better than wat y’all proclaim him being.
April 1st, 2009 at 11:59 pm
he has won so many ameatur races and titles riding the way he does! why would he change his style? when that style of riding is what got him to the pro ranks and if anyone has some tapes of villipoto on 250f especially when he fell or got a bad start he would crank on the rpms and look what he did oh yeah he only won a handfull of titles! so let the boy do his thing and we will all see what he’s got come glen helen! and I think Everyone on here shoould quit there jobs and become a professional motocross trainer since everyone here knows how to ride like a pro!
April 2nd, 2009 at 4:43 pm
I cant believe ANY of you idiots are talking about his skill level and how he rides a dirt bike…He is obviously doing something correct.
April 7th, 2009 at 11:54 am
Amazing d00d cant wait to race you soon out in the national’s
April 11th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
Can he win a moto here and there ? yes but i see him hiting the deck a few times, his style is wide open and that can bite you sometimes.
April 11th, 2009 at 5:05 pm

April 15th, 2009 at 4:27 pm
hey everyone is entitled to there own opinion of his but me personaly i grew up racing with him since he was on the 50’s some of u might say he was spoiled but ur wrong he showed up to the races in a beat up pickup truck with the money they could scrap together to race he dedicated himself to the sport and got himself to were he is now it wasent handed to him. the kid has flat out talent and look for him to be in the top 3 for sure
April 16th, 2009 at 3:01 pm
barcia is my hero he is such a good rider but ya i wonder if he’ll rev it up like he did a my local llq at fast-traxx ohio cause his pro bike wont take that like his ameture bikes i bet but theres a video of him at fast-traxx http://www.swvoffroad.com is where yull find it
April 18th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
BAD ASS BRO
April 24th, 2009 at 7:58 pm
i remember this kid doin fat whips on a 65 and an 85 at the local races dont hate they dont just hand out the factory contracts to anybody
April 25th, 2009 at 3:27 pm
wow..aha i bet you justin reads this and luaghs at all you pathetic goons..ya..hes on the rev limiter…dosent change the face that hed beat all of you guys..and he looks sick on the bike..and the kid who said they gave him the bike for lorettas? you clearly must be retarded because he is racing his first pro national this year so you should all really just stfu…
May 6th, 2009 at 7:55 pm
all u kids out here are retarted u dont know that barcia has earned everything he has i used to race with him at some local tracks when he had no team and was winning nationals on crap bikes until he signed with honda he may be a dirty rider but he is still fast he doesnt need to take them out he just wants people to know hes the best and he will be up in the top 5 every race
May 18th, 2009 at 7:33 pm
this kid will be a top 5 runner, been following his amateur career for a long time and the people that actually know him have said they remember when he was riding busted up bikes and beating all the spoilt lil rich kids on the latest bikes with the latest gear. Good luck justin your my favourite rider.
May 22nd, 2009 at 1:27 pm
i am justin barcia and what i got to say is that im not going to be cocky not everyone wins there first year besides for rc
