Sorry, but I'm with Lozzo on this one. To take 180kg of 4 cylinder 120bhp two stroke and throw it sideways at 150 mph on dirt takes some commitment, especially when you're surrounded by other riders doing the same thing and you haven't got a front brake! I'm not knocking the other famous riders, past and present, but I do have a special respect for Kenny.
