You're going to get shit for thinking like that. Because its so negative.

Here, try this.

Kawasaki didn't have many choices when Ryan retired and their star Davi was let go. Will is reliable and well liked. Great PR kind of guy.

His starts have been awful so far this year. He came from a good ways back to get that 4th. The guy had a couple of top 5's in his rookie 450 year before he got hurt.

This is only his 12th start in the 450 SX class and until last week had not raced a SX since March 2014.

JW12 or JG33 would have been a better second man than Hahn is/was, but I believe his contract was a two year deal. I'd expect to see Martin or Bowers on the 450 next year aside tomac.

How do people forget so fast? Wil was riding awesome before he had that nasty crash on his geico 450. He's hardly raced since then due to injuries. Give him some time.

I watched practice on livetiming and he was looking ok. Also in the semi he was going ok. It's coming around for Will.

Wilbur is "off" the pace for some reason. I've never figured him for a top-5 guy...but he should be a consistent top-10 rider even on his bad nights. Hope he figures it out before the season is over.

Would like to see that. Weimer might have a shot at getting it back if he continues his current form.

Any of you guys. You're obviously factory material.

Wil was obviously off his game last week at Anaheim. Heck, if I'd had serious injuries there on two season-openers, I'm sure I'd have been happy to make it through healthy.

Anyway, it's all easy when you're sitting on the couch at home.

I'm not sure Weimer would want to be back on factory Kawi. Wasn't there some real bad blood?

Give him a little time, dude had some serious injuries. He got the ride because of potential and his personality, he is good at PR. Also I heard Kawi was doing him a solid because the bike was the reason he got hurt last year.

Don't forget about A. Mart. He got third in the 250 LCQ and only half the dudes are there! He must really suck OP! Take away his ride!

I don't know, it's weird. When you see him training on those tracks, he looks really really fast, but when it's race time, he's not here, he's completly off the pace. I can't denied that he's talented, but if he can't put things together...

Weimer on the other hand look solid and he is standing 8th in the championship points. He deserves a ride I think.

As for Jeremy Martin, if Cooper is going to 360 FLY, I can see Jeremy going to JGR in place of Peick (when do WP's contract end ?).

Give Hahn some races to get back into it. He's had a lot of rough injuries. With that said unless his results improve this is probably his last year on a full factory ride.

Nice guy or not. The average fan will not see it. when he places 4th in the lcq. 20th in thr main. What i see has a sx fan is a b rider hesitant to hang it out.
