Just came to my mind that with RedBull KTM apparently adding Trey Canard to their factory team roster, they've pretty much got the classiest, most professional team in pro MX!

Ryan Dungey
Trey Canard
Marvin Musquin

All three guys are clean-cut, articulate speakers, and carry themselves in a professional manner. Good stuff!

KTM is moving the Team base into Mexico, cheaper labour.

Onto the podium, A LOT next year.

We'll see a lot of Honda on the podium with Roczen and Seely is my belief.

Agree 100% you wont get a lick my balls tweet from any of those guys. Course, Im gonna say that HRC will clean up Kennys social media real quick. I like Trey and Marvin. I think Dungey is the Jimmy Johnson of MX tho. He wont realy say what he means, he just says what you expect him to say. Marv is awesome to me because when he gets smoked he owns up and says "I got smoked" and Trey has always been the man.

That's kind of a surprise to me that HRC resigned him. Just didn't think it was gonna happen.
Good for him, good guy.

But a championship contender?.....mmm Unsure

Very similar except Honda doesn't make 2 strokes. That pretty much nulls and voids any good will they scored with a cool team. I'm a big Cannard fan. I'll be a bigger fan when I see a video of him on a 150 and 250sx.

I think Honda is looking to who would be the best second banana to Roczen, and someone who probably wouldn't find himself in the position to be racing him for a win. Seely won't be. Trey might be...at least a time or two. Seely is a great top-fiver, but hardly to be feared by being able to pull a win out of his hat. I'm a lot more suprised for Honda to let Canard go than to keep Seely on.

that's probably what honda was thinking but they might be in for a surprise. seely has improved every year by a lot. look at his outdoor performance this year compared to the years before, huge difference. seely is on honda for quite a while now and may have it easier to adjust to the new bike than roczen and that could give him just that little advantage. not saying he will win the title but seely is fast, especially on the west coast tracks.

I can't wait to see Trey on a KTM, he has always been one of my favourite riders! I hope he can come into the new season healthy and show the speed we all know he has. Funny how even five years ago going to KTM was viewed by alot of people as a bad decision, and now they are one of the most respected and professional teams in the sport!

I agree, Redbull KTM is all class.

My son (age 13) and a 2 of his buddies were at muddy creek on Friday (amateur practice) , after practice they were walking around in the pro pits and were checking out the KTM rig when out of the blue Dungey's brother ask them if they would like a tour. He took them in the rig and showed them everything. Opened every drawer showing them Ti parts, spare engines, and suspension. He took them to the upper area and into the lounge. They got to hang our the Marvin, his wife, The Man, for over an hour. It was something they'll never forget.

I made my way over to thank them and they were very gracious. Dungey's brother told me when he saw them checking out the rig, he thought it would have been cool to have someone do that for him when he was younger and they had everything setup and some down time, so asked them if they wanted the tour.

Class act team, from the riders down.

I have since moved to KTM as well!

Seely is just as likely to be fighting for a win as Trey, that's nonsense
