So is Honda still with Muscle Milk? And is he still getting factory support? I thought Honda might get a little pissy with that kind of conflict
Chads team is a COMPLETELY different team. I see no reason why Honda would care... Im pretty sure Chad could run ANY sponsor he wanted apart from another bike manufacturer

He was sponsored by Unbound Energy Drinks back in maybe 06 or 07? After that ended I'm surprised he hasn't had one since either.

Well i hope this lawsuit doesnt cost Monster all their money


THE family of a 14-year-old US girl is suing the California makers of Monster Energy, alleging too much caffeine in the popular energy drink led to her death.

Lawyers said the 0.7 litre cans of Monster Energy consumed by Anais Fournier, of Maryland, in the 24 hours prior to her fatal cardiac arrest in December 2011 contained as much caffeine - 480 milligrams - as 14 cans of Coca-Cola.

The ensuing autopsy cited "cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity'' as the cause of death.

The family is asking the California Supreme Court for "all damages allowed by law,'' claiming that Monster Energy should be held responsible for wrongful death for allegedly failing to warn about its product's dangers.

By law, soft drinks in the United States can contain no more than 71.5 milligrams of caffeine per 12 ounces.

But the limit does not apply to energy drinks like Monster Energy that are considered dietary supplements.

"These drinks are death traps for young, developing girls and boys like my daughter Anais,'' her mother Wendy Crossland said in a statement issued by the family's law firm, Goldberg, Finnegan and Mester.

"I just want Monster Energy to know their product can kill.''

In a statement, the drink's manufacturer, Monster Beverage, said it was unaware of any fatality caused by any of the more than eight billion energy drinks it has sold worldwide.

"Monster does not believe that its beverages are in any way responsible for the death of Ms. Fournier,'' it said, adding that it intended to "vigorously'' defend itself in court.

The product website for Monster Energy claims the beverage is "the meanest energy supplement on the planet ... a wicked mega hit that delivers twice the buzz of a regular energy drink.''

He was sponsored by Rockstar in 2009 when he rode for Rockstar Makita Suzuki and then sponsored by monster in 2010 when he rode for Monster Energy Kawasaki...

You are right, he was actually quite negative about the race a few months ago. Good news for the team though.

Muscle Milk is not an energy drink, is it? I think it's promoted as more of a protien supplement thing...At least that's what we gave our kid when he was trying to gain some muscle.

Just got the PR

Chad Reed Becomes Newest Member of the Monster Army

CORONA, Calif. (October 19, 2012) – Mere hours before the gate drops on the 2012 Monster Energy Cup in Las Vegas, Australian superstar and motocross veteran Chad Reed was introduced as the newest member of the Monster Army at the pre-race press conference from Sam Boyd Stadium.

After earning a pair of Monster Energy Supercross titles in 2004 and 2008, an AMA Motocross Championship in 2009, 57 career AMA victories, and the most podium finishes in the history of the sport, Reed holds the distinction of being the most successful international rider of all time. With 11 years of competition under his belt, Reed has competed against the sport’s legends of past and present like Jeremy McGrath, Ricky Carmichael, Kevin Windham, James Stewart, Ryan Villopoto, and Ryan Dungey, defeating each one of them in amassing his impressive racing résumé. more HERE
Is it correct to call Chad's previous championships 'Monster Energy Supercross titles' when the series title sponsor was THQ and not Monster in 2004?

Saw a while back on Instagram that he was collaborating with dirt shark for butt patches for the upcoming season.. I figured that was a hint to the monster thing, but then saw pics and video of him riding and didn't see any logos. Cool that he started his own team, earned factory support from Honda and now has drawn in the biggest sponsor in the industry and an outside sponsor like discount tire. I was never a huge fan of chads before, of course I thought he was a bad ass on the bike..but now I think I would have to say he is my favorite guy out there in the 450 class. With a new kid, new bike, new sponsors and a stacked class.. It should be very interesting to see what the ol' Ozzie veteran has up his sleeves for the young guns this year!

Go twotwo!
When you're saying "Ozzie" veteran you do mean Dave Osterman because it has been two years now, lmao!!
