WTF? DM18 had some wild rumors at Rockstar KTM and now Monster Kawasaki. I hope Tomac stays with Honda. Curious to hear both sides of the story.

Stay on the gas Wil Hahn

Milsaps obviously has some issues, it wasn't long ago that He was running with the best, this year He's lucky to top 10.

not a big surprise to me, seems he just hasn't gelled with the bike to me. IMO everybody on the Kawi seemed to struggle early, Reed has changed a few things and apparently made it better for him and Grant but in my eyes Davi just never really came to terms with it. yeah, I know I don't know shit but it's my opinion, I really hope he jumps back on a Yamaha or possibly a Suzuki, I think he seems to get along with those the best.

I really don't want to see Tomac leave Honda. the only thing lacking is his starts. I hope he rides the shit out of a Kawi somewhere to make sure he's good with it before making the leap.

Sucks to hear, but he has been a shell of the rider we saw at MEC. I wonder if another team will pick him up or if he's on the brink of early retirement.

Clearing house for Musquin and Tomac?

I honestly can't say that I blame them. He has been a HUGE disappointment and I understand he has some attitude issues.

Seems like there's only one logical place for him to go...second rider at Motoconcepts! Bring in Davi and a camera crew and let the magic happen.

Kawi is good bike..... RV2 dominated on it. I hate to see Honda groom this talent and lose it to folks like Monster Energy. Honda has invested a lot into Eli Tomac.

Seely has no issus with starts.

good one, he had to do something to break his contract?

Can't see a guy fired for trying his best. Even if his best is not good enough.
