Who will be the substitute for Grant in the Honda Rig and for Weimer under the Kawi tent?
I would say that Kawi is looking not that good. First they choose for Weimer because they don't want Pourcel. And know it looks like Weimer wasn't the best choice they are trying to get Pourcel as substitute...?? What a joke and that after the Pro Circuit shit damn!

Honda maybe the same stuff? They didn't got a deal with Pourcel maybe now they can go after him as substitute. Is funny that Honda choose for Josh Grant that guy is every year the same story. He got injured and that's it. If he is fit he is lighting fast but thats the problem keep it on two wheels and that guy got the choice on top of Pourcel. Bwhaha.

Karma? Bye the way I think that Kawi and Honda better look for someone els because I don't think they see Pourcel soon back he is a stubborn guy! For Kawasaki is Billy Mackenzie a good option. Aranda would be a good option if he wasn't a Rockstar pilot.

For Honda I haven't a idea. Maybe they need to bring MC of the couch he will race for nothing because racing for big money isn't the goal of racing mx and sx isn't it MC? Hypocrite.

Don't think that Hart and huntington will let him. go. They got a good team with good bikes these days. Pro Circuit tuned 450cc Kawi's. See Tedesco it is a long time ago that i saw him ride that good on a bike! So I think H&H wanted that there effort got rewarded by Blose and Tedesco in top 5 or maybe once on the box everything is possible.

Just to light a fuse: Would Reed have better results on Grant's bike?

I don't think team 22 would let him out of his contract.

I here he's got a pretty tight relationship with his team owner too, he may be happy working for someone he respects.

If Eric Kehoe removed the plastics from Grant's race bike, then rolled the bike into the Team TwoTwo pits and said, "Here's a bike you can use for the next 4 weeks" , would Reed's results improve?

Pourcel should be on one of those bikes. Grant is a band aid, surprised that he got a factory ride.

And leave his current sponsors hanging like Nick Wey did last year? Why not someone without an actual team?

Another question is if TWOTWO´s sponsors will allow him to ride with anything else but BelRay, PC etc. Contracts can be hard to get out of, and for what, if Grant returns soon?

It´s cheaper to leave the bikes in the semi

guys just count out reed and pourcel, no one will probably replace grant because he will be back soon, and that ''jump in for weimer'' thing isn't that too late now?

Kawi should put Josh Hansen on the 450 for East Coast..Honda did it for Canard last year.

I think he broke his wrist or arm or something right before A1, even though he wasn't going to step in until Phoenix.
A couple of years ago Kawi had their test rider fill in (Billy Laninovich) and he did pretty good. Anyone know how their test rider is now? Actually, they should give Robbie Reynard a call.

racerxonline: After talking to the team last weekend, we're guessing Kawi brings French rider Gregory Aranda over for a few SX rounds... #SX

I don't think Josh had a real good showing when he was riding supercross for the boo koo honda team a few years back, it seems like those arenacross boys don't always do as well with supercross.

yeah...that boo koo team wasn't all that great though, (see DV12) Demuth did aight last year towards the end of season on a 3rd H&H bike (pretty sure it was a Kawi)
