So, the Toyota folks aren't gonna be a part of the Title Package in '14?

If I had to guess?

Stay Blue or go Suzuki.

It's entirely possible that Coy & J-Bone could be taking the Moto Program in a different direction; but, it will require quite a bit of "change"...

One has to wonder if Suzuki's decision to stop selling autos in America might justify the Toyota/Suzuki pairing for JGR. Hard to truly know what the corporate honchos might entertain or simply outright dismiss now that they aren't technically competitors in this market.

This Suzuki talk is laugable. Suzuki does not even have any money to help the Rockstar team who has outperformed all the Yellow factory supported riders all year long. Zook has their one guy and RCH, they are not getting involved with JGR.
Your Crystal-Ball flies right in the face of some of the discussions that are going on between certain OEMs & JGR; but, I digress.

We'll know in a few months; however, if Yamaha decides to...ACTUALLY Go Racing?

Well...as I said...we'll see.

Whatever JGR decides to do, I really hope it turns their luck around. The last thing we need is a great team folding and leaving more riders fighting for even less positions available.

Travis Preston works for JGR and he is on the Yamaha 2014 launch video's. I'm fully persuaded JGR is running Yamaha.

It couldn't have anything to do with them not actually being able to sell cars in the US. Nobody bought that shit.

JGR is in bed with Yota because that is what they run in nationwide and nascar. yota is on the bikes because of nascar. I believe Yamaha helped Toyota(TRD) with their V8 program also.

JGR signed a 3 year deal with Yamaha, which I believe started in 2012. They are not changing brands anytime soon.

Dumba$$. They only way JGR goes to Honda is it they lose Toyota. Don't see that happening with all the money they are dumping into their NASCAR program.

Since the 14' model 450 will be released at the end of this month, does this mean that JGR or any of the other Yamaha teams will switch to the 14' model mid-season?

Does it do Yamaha any favors to have Grant and Brayton take their new machine out early and finish 8th-17th?

While I sort of agree with that statement since it is 90% rider, a better bike might help them finish a little better. 7th and 16th might be worth it. Whistling
