Sitting here watching the 2nd moto and I can't help but just laugh in pure amazement at his skills on the bike and as a racer. The way he sets people up and doesn't hesitate to go where he knows he needs to go is amazing. The first 5 minutes of the moto are possibly some of the best riding I've ever seen by anyone in my opinion.

I personally think KROC is one of the most talented riders we've ever seen. I think now that he's finally having fun and doing things his way again, he's gonna thrive. Hopefully he jives with the Honda next year.

It seems he is a lot better at the basics. Standing up a more and longer in corners, keeping momentum. Great to watch indeed!

Just think, he is only 22yrs old, if he stays healthy he still has a couple years to improve when he is in his prime.

Wow. Very special talent Mr. Roczen is.. So glad he decided to join us here in the States.

Huge fan, and look forward to many more great years of watching this young man thrive.

Yep. 24-26 seems to be the prime years. He's gonna be killing it!

He has the Zook dialed.Seems he can go anywhere on the track with ease. It is fun to watch.

Wonder how long it will take him to get the red bike dialed in.

It's like GL was saying earlier today, KR glides, while ET and others pound. Watching KR on a scooter is a thing of beauty.

What happend with Ken between Moto 1 and Moto 2 ? He was a longer Time behind Barcia in Moto 1 then 20 others in Moto 2. Sting of a hornet or something?

I think the rougher track works in his favour more. Kinda like last week, I think that the rougher track is what helped close the gap between motos

Maybe and i think the bad start was another reason that he switch from the secure to the hyper fast mode.

But that is what you expect...they're all pros and fast so you wouldn't think anyone should be blowing by any other quite like that..at least not in the top five or so. But what Roczen does on most occasions is incredible and where the ????s are.

The way he threads the needle and just cuts through traffic is insane
