Damn if only we had this KROC all year. Seems it took them all year to get the bike right.
I fear that next year he will again spend 3/4 of the season trying to figure out a setup. With KTM And RCH it seems like he signs a deal to change teams and after that is done he finally gets his bike dialed in where he looks super comfortable.

He kept slipping back and almost was passed for fourth... I don't think that was on purpose... Faded...

Peick messed up, Weimer hit him, then Barcia hit Weimer and Tickle piled into Barcia.

Your judgement in things that go well for Dungey seems tainted.

He thanked the main team sponsors right at the beginning "my Jimmy John/Soaring Eagle Suzuki got me off to a great start... then nailed out all of his personal sponsors.

No way, Honda wont stand for that. Whole different deal at HRC, i think (hope) this will be the move that is needed to bring out the best in him...only time will tell.

I really thought every rider would be wearing a go-pro and we'd get to see the real action. Producers switching to where the passing and tight stuff is happening is in real time. What happened to that?

Eli looked really happy. Good for him! And Kenny was outstanding! He now has the confidence to do this again. And he hopefully has it going to outdoors.

Man i cant wait for outdoors! So much more fun than sx imo.

Just went back and looked at the lap times, and no, he did not fade.

Kenny passed Dungey what, like four times today? and each time with more confidence...
great ride!!
4/23/2016 4:06pm
Dungey made his point the past 3 weekends, there was no need to try to go hard tonight on a track like this with 2 guys that were obviously faster & had nothing to loose on this season.

Well if he did pull over a bit, it was for $$... Jason doesn't think without $$ involved... It would have had to paid better than third place would have... Laughing

Considering Dungey will win the title anyhow, I can't see KTM spending money that isn't part of a normal bonus program for no reason. That kind of money wouldn't be in an insurance policy and would have to come out of pocket. And it's definitely not coming out of Hewitt's pocket.

But the 2017 is supposed to be an all new bike. The last 2 first year models for Honda have taken a while to get the riders happy.

With all the KTM bosses there, well... Ahh, nevermind. Like when Herlings pulled over for Roczen the year Roczen was about to leave for USA. I was at the Kegums race.

Still blows my mind that Dungey has not finished off the podium this season. That is incredible. (and only 3rd four times)

i am not so confident on that .97 brand new Honda . took 2 year s to make that a great bike .09 brand new Honda took them well over a year to make that a great bike .13 brand new bike took nearly 2 years to make that a great bike . id be surprised if we dont hear alot of set up this and that out of the Honda guy s early rounds next year
