There's been a few threads about it lately. Ken has been in discussions with them... his deal with RCH is up at the end of this season, not 17.

Someone said they they saw it in Racer X as a possible replacement for trey or Seely. I think Ricky is not letting his LEAD/STAR rider go anywhere especially since Kenny likes the Zooks.

For Trey... and Ken is in the driver's seat in this situation.

The person I heard it from is living in the past. The Racer X or Pulp interview, cant remember which, put that red ride to bed.

Hence the small amount of posts I have. I'm too busy doing cranks,valves and suspension to have the time to sit behind a keyboard and post endlessly.

In other news, Decoster and Dungey are going from Suzuki over to KTM. Career suicide!

^^^do not over-look this guy's sources^^^
I don't have any scoop, but I do not believe RCH will be on yellow in '17. But, then I wouldn't be completely surprised to see RCH morph back to H&H without RC...

I'd love to see Canard on a different color. He needs the change of scenery, and out from under that pressure cooker that is Honda, IMO. It would be great to see him on KTM...even BTO!

With Trey Canard - it's not team, bike, or rider. However, he seriously needs to look at his program.

Trey Canard is is #1 rider at any team. Honda would be foolish to drop him in favor of CS14.

KR and TC are a dangerous team.

Added note: there has been a lot of loyalty between the team and Trey Canard. Cannot think of time where a team and rider stayed together with all of the down time.

Mookie's upside is far greater than Bogle. I see him on a Geico HRC or Honda HRC with Seven gear.

No... Kenny goes to HRC and RCH stays on Suzukis with Jeremy Martin coming aboard.

Pretty sure both Steve and JT said they've heard it's a done deal.

I hope not. I'd like to see him for another year on that bike. It looks like he's got it figured out now, and it's tough to bike hop and spend time getting it set up for him again. You basically lose a year.
