I remember reading a Racer X article about him as he was about to make his pro debut, have been a fan ever since.

I met Kenny's practice mechanic at my chiropractors office the other day. I told him then I thought he would be in the hunt for the title. This kid is impressive and has a personality that just screams "I'm coooollll". Would really love to see Canard win the title, but if I had to bet I'd put my money on Kenny or Dungey. My preference would be to see KRoc take it all.... The kid just seems to have that magnetic draw. Class act!!

That's MR. ROCZEN to y'all... Ken is a sponsor's dream, and smart as hell. Too many of these guys don't realize the 30secs of camera time is CRUCIAL to their sponsors/earnings. Kenny knows CLASS PAYS, not just monitarily. I'm stil pullin for JS7, but as long as the racing is as good as GH I won't care who takes it! I was at GH with my family and it could not have been a better day...MOTOCROSS BABY!

Kenny is one of the new stars of the sport and more importantly, should be for many years to come. He is very personable and likable and has done a great job of marketing himself in the US, especially to his generation. Anyone that follows him on Instagram knows what I mean. I believe that KRoc is one of the foreign athletes that truly endears himself to the American public because of his immense talent, but more importantly by the way he conducts himself. He already has a huge following over here and what parent wouldn't want their child emulating him.

Motox/superx is in great hands for the future. Not only with KRoc, but with Adam C, Tomac, Martin brothers, Sealy, Cooper Webb and on and on. I look forward to all the battles!

Surprising how little love there has been for kenny on here after a great 450 mx debut! Very special talent- people in gps have been saying it for years! He really is the full package, a sponsors dream! Great rider, really good with the media- an exceptional talent..I expect a dogfight between him and dungey for the title this year- its unusual for any rider to be competing for the title in their first season in 450s but we've already seen it in supercross with him being up there right away- he is stronger outdoors than in supercross so its going to be a great season for ktm!!!

Still remember the first time i saw roczen riding gps (mallory park british gp in 2009- his pro debut) - you could tell then the 14 year old kid was going to be something special!

He will have been gutted that he got beaten by only a few feet for BOTH moto wins!!! But he is smart enough to see the big picture. He is still in the hunt for the championship- narrowly missing out on the overall. Impressive debut by anyones standards
I am a youth wrestling coach and we have a handful of kids that also race motocross and even more that rec ride. Except for my son, every kids favorite rider is Ken Roczen. I am not exaggerating that in the slightest, so I think he will have a solid fan base through his racing years.

My thoughts, he will be a 450 AMA champ, if not this year, he will be one for sure, most likely multiple years.

Exactly, that was awesome and showed a lot of respect, and also from Reedy that he acknowledge and spoke if his respect, just shows how much the people that have to 1st make it out if there country and then get to the USA really have the respect your series deserves, that know how hard it is to get there and feel and respect the others that have fight there way over there, don't see your guys going up to say sorry and see if your ok, Americans , all about themselves and no respect for how hard other competitors the road has been to get there, that's why they kick ass, cause they had to fight so hard just to get out of there countries, don't see Barcia ever checking if anyone is ok, but hey, he put a bullseye on his back and I know mookie has been practicing his darts, couldn't happen to a nicer guy!!
Rolling up in here putting down American racers on a mostly American motoboard is more of a troll-move than someone wanting to add some substance to a discussion. Don't cherry-pick the US riders who act like pricks from time to time and use it to stereotype every one of them. That's like us picking one or two Euro GP jackasses that there have been in the past (and there have been more than a few) that have come here to race, and saying all GP riders are the same. Roczen is a class act, there is no doubt...but there are a lot of American riders that are as much so.

I'm a big fan of Kenny and even though I'll be bummed he's not riding an orange bike next year I'll still remain a big fan. I hope that RCH can provide him with the bikes and support he needs. I still have my doubts.

I appreciate his respectful attitude. It is rare these days but it does separates the minimum wagers from the rest of us. Ha
Kenny is a great role model for the sport and we are always pulling for him. The guy is a class act.
