I can't see Kawasaki replacing a fragile rider with a faster fragile rider. They need a second rider that might not set the world on fire but crosses the finish line in 1 piece all the time jake W did a great job at Kawasaki as a second rider.

Anyone else find it amusing that team green is becoming the place old FCR guys go to retire?

Cards are falling into place already and teams are full. Lets make some assumptions shall we?

Honda: Roczen and Seely
Kawi: Tomac and Canard
KTM: Musquin and Dungey
JGR" Barcia and Peick
Factory Yamaha:Reed and Webb
RCH: Martin and Tickle
Suzuki: Stewart and Bagget
BTO: Milsaps and Brayton

Looks like the bus is full to me. No more spots left huh?

KTM will run three riders.

Also, I don't believe anything is done with Canard... Kawasaki just placed an offer to someone else a few days ago...

Yep, I heard it face to face from a VERY reliable source as well.


EDIT: Just Kenny to Honda, the Canard/Kawi thing is definitely on the table though.

I forgot them didnt I. Husky; Anderson and Pourcel

Bus is still full unless KTM sticks with three riders as Michael has stated.

Maybe RCH ditches Tickle and BTO gets rid of Brayten and Stewart retires at Suzuki. That would open up 3 spots.

Are any other 250 riders expected to move up... Davalos, Osbourne, Nelson, Plessinger, Mcelrath, Savatgy, Mookie?

What about Bogle, Hahn, Weimer, Grant, and Nicoletti?

IMO, if Justin keeps the speed he's shown I'd figure him to take Dean's spot.

Pleasinger is only in his second year... The only ones on that list that may move up are Malcolm or Davalos if they win a title... Savatgy is close to being bumped on points I believe.

KR will never be happy anywhere,seen this before.

KR at the end of the 2014 season was interviewed at Monster Cup and said his Suzuki was soooo good he felt like he could go out there and race on a nearly stock bike, and went on and on about how comfortable he felt right away on the bike.

Either that was all BS and he was just saying that to be a dick to KTM, or you might be right.

whoa whoa let's back back, what's the genesis of the Roczen to Honda rumor? I sure missed it, or maybe I just forgot, but in either case, when did this talk surface and what are some sources please.

Listen to the RacerX/Pulp podcasts. JT, Matthes and Weege are the sources. It seems like it's a done deal or soon to be done deal.

Malcolm on the 450 green bike would be a good fit IMO.

Probably just a coincidence, but it seems like the natural progression of big name Honda riders to find a ride with kawi. RC, ET, and Hahn did, now maybe TC??

Kawasaki has tried to sign Trey Canard in the past, he almost became RV's teammate one year. Like I mentioned above though, they just made an offer to someone not named Canard this past week.
