Every brand and team has lost a bike or 5 this season. Including PC, Factory Honda, KTM, DNA, etc. etc...

I guess Dungey didnt win the championships the past two years riding a Suzuki? How about Reed? Carmichael? Man, that Suzuki amateur team sure does suck with all those blown up bikes. Just because the Rockstar team isnt tearing it up right now, doesnt mean anything about the bikes. Barcia, Wilson and Bagget would still be winning if they were on a PC Suzuki or Geico Suzuki.

So, Durham should turn down the Suzuki ride and wait for PC or Geico. Who does that sound like?

Just to add fuel to the fire, I know a rider who switched from Suzuki 250 to Honda and his comment was that his bone stock Honda was already better than his last years tuned out Suzuki.

He can do better than Rockstar Suzuki..... personally I think he should end up on Geico Honda, I would imagine there will be an opening or 2 onthat team.
didnt the rmz 250 pretty much kill the other 2011 bikes in most shootouts this year? yeah as a team pc and geico have it dialed as we all know but the suzuki is a damn good starting platform.

Heres another idea, give more support to the eleven-10 team, finances, parts, whatever they need to continue being sucessful, Obviously the bikes fast, more $ will make it faster

All things being equal I would agree. But unfortunately all things are not equal and he is probably going to have to go somewhere else if he wants to make any money.

I was surprised to see the 11-10 mods rig....doing it old school with 3 riders out of 1 box van.....major respect for the team.

Good to hear DD and others are being considered for factory ride$.

I am glad to see DD doing well, and even happier for Chad and 11 ten, but a lot of things can happen between now, and the start of the supercross season next year. DD is a much better outdoors than he is at supercross.

I hope things work out for him.

Its not just the bike and the money. But also having the ability to train and test throughout the week. Pretty sure most of his week would be spent travelling at the moment.

I am sure the Suzuki is a good bike buton the pro level team Rockstar has not done anything. PC, Gieco, TLD and Star Yamaha have been the teams that are winning and running up front. Besides that PC and Gieco are the elite" Teams" in the lites in which it just as important if not more so than the bike.

The fact of the matter is DD can do better, better team, better bike and better money.

Durham doesn't need to fix something because there is nothing wrong/broken!! He got a good bike, is cruising with his homies where he is comfortable, ...

So DD say where you are if Suzuki is your only option! That bike isn't reliable!
since when is a 2011 suzuki not reliable? those bikes are great!

Not only is DD being taken seriously now but from a local racer standpoint I'm gonna look into how I can give 11-10 more of my support. Thats part of why they have a race team too. Lets try to spend some money with them and make them more sucessful, Hopefullt 11-10's phone has been ringing off the hook lately www.eleven10mods.com check them out

DD seems pretty comfortable where he's at. I would love to see 11-10 get some support so they can keep him around

STFU you ignorant fuck! Take a look at the great riders that have been put down because those suzies couldn't handle it. Suzuki's are a great bikes but they are not reliable. I personally also agree that DD could do way better considering his effort and speed this year.
BigDaddyG didn't say the bikes were bad either you illiterate Russian fuck!
You are a HUGE fuckin' idiot!n
Wow, 7 whole posts and you're throwing a rant like this out already? Looks like you're gonna bring a lot of reasoning to the board.Blink

Totally agree! They don't just do motors, they have other services as well. Im sending my RMZ450 for a throttle body mod as well as mapping and having my hubs turned and polished.
