Atlanta, Georgia – Triumph Factory Racing today announced, with respect and appreciation, that Stilez Robertson has made the difficult decision to retire from AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross competition. The 23-year-old American has struggled with a persistent wrist injury over the past few years, and despite intensive efforts and strong team support, a full recovery has unfortunately proven unattainable.
Stilez joined Triumph Factory Racing in preparation for the 2025 season, aiming to return to the form that had previously earned him four podium finishes. After a promising pre-season, the California native made his debut for the team at Anaheim 1. Just a week later in San Diego, a seemingly minor crash led to a worsening of the injury to his wrist ligament.
After missing the remainder of the 250SX West series, Robertson attempted a comeback during the opening round of the Pro Motocross Championship at Pala Raceway. Unfortunately, he suffered another crash there, reinjuring his wrist following contact with a fallen bike.
In the weeks that followed, Stilez remained active within the team, taking on a supportive role in his teammates’ training program at the Triumph Training Facility in Georgia. He also contributed to the development of Triumph’s new amateur racing initiative.
With the end of the season approaching, Stilez has now chosen to focus on a new chapter in his life. The entire Triumph Factory Racing team wishes him all the success and happiness in the future.
Stilez Robertson
“This has been an incredibly difficult decision, but with my wrist injury continuing to be an issue, I’ve decided to step away from professional racing. I’ve spent a lot of time this summer at the training facility supporting the other riders, and I really enjoyed helping with the launch of the amateur program. The team has always been extremely understanding and supportive, and we truly did everything we could to get me back on the bike. Lastly, I want to thank all the sponsors, my family, friends, and fans who have supported me over the years!”
Jeremy Coker – General Manager, Triumph Racing America
“Stilez’s decision to retire hasn’t been an easy one. Everything looked promising during preseason, but after the crash in San Diego, the injury flared up again. When things went wrong again at Pala, it was incredibly frustrating for him. It’s sad to see his career end this way, but I have a great deal of respect for him and wish him nothing but the best in the future.”
