who was better on a 450 when they where AM riders?
They never really raced each other on big bikes, except for schoolboy (125) classes.

Yeah i agree. I'm sure there will be some sleepers in the class. Michael Byrne, Ivan Tedesco, Josh Grant, Andrew Short, Tim Ferry (starts permitting), Davi Milsaps. Pretty much everyone from 3rd to 12th in the Supercross class will be battling it out for tope fives every weekend.

Alessi ate about everybody else besides stewart for breakfast on a 450, and RV hasn't been doing so hot this year, but I do think he'll pull around for the outdoors. It should be good.

What are you smoking? The only person to jump to the 450 class and be more successful than RV Park is Reed. RV's been more consistant that James and Ricky.

and I think he's still having trouble with it. It's the same injury that ended Rick Johnson's career.Poto hasn't riden to his potential since it happened.we'll have to wait and see but my money is on Alessi.

mrquick is mrsmart...i am going with mikey.

james will not race the series.

reed will not race the series.

rv seems a little intimidated by the big bore..on the sx tracks. bike seems bigger and heavier on him and his style imho.


let's not forget that mikey is on the very best scooter out there...quite a step up from the ktm...we know that much.
you know poto dont look comfortable on his bike. but you watch grant, he looks comfy, mike looks comfortable and some other rookies look fine too.i know ill get flamed for this but the kawis still suck and feel heavy(great motor though)i wonder if he got on that bike and thought his pc bike felt better

Unfortunately BT101 wont be there... real shame. He would have been up front, more that Villo.. He has so much more experience on a 450, as does Alessi, therefor, he will be up front rather than the Kawi rider...
Dont count out Grant... I think hes a 450 rider, he seems to have adapted better to the 450 than others on a rookie year...
hey, dont count out the others mentioned, and also Cooper... If hes healthy, hes gonna be there, for sure...

RV's been more consistant than James and Ricky? What the hell are you smoking. James and Ricky have both had undefeated seasons outdoors. Undefeated!!! How much more consistant can you be? As to the original question, I think RV will come out ahead but it will be close. Can't wait.
