Sooooooo stoked...

He gets in to Cali late tonight and starts testing in the morning.

He'll be on The Real Deal Factiory 450SXF & Davi's mechanic is spinning wrenches for him.

STOKED!

He should do very well on the 450.

Hopefully he can quickly adjust to jumping brands and classes and have a good showing.

Well, after a full-day and a night stuck in Denver due to Airlines and their usual madness...

He's, right now, getting picked up at the airport with his gear-bag and heading straight to testing. He's going to have everything available to him that all the BTO-KTM riders have...well...except a bunch of time to get it dialed.

He's been on no-less than 4 different variations of Yamaha over the last 2 months; so, I don't think this is going to be too difficult for him.

In-fact, when he see's ALL the people doing whatever needs to be done to get the bike right for him...he'll probably be STOKED...and...relieved.

This is great. Congrats Benny!

When I heard JT say he was getting a fill in ride my initial thought was it would be back with Cycle Trader filling in for Hahn. My secondary thought was that it would be with BTO and JT knew because of his association with the team.

He'll have good people around him. Look forward to seeing him put it in the main and see what he can do!

From Benny...

He would have been qualified 450SX around 15th place riding his Cycle Trader Yamaha in Toronto, so if he adapts quickly to BTO KTM at least speed should be there to make the main event. Of course there is many other things too, but definitely possible to make some points there.
