But hey here's a question.. I'm a fan of riding styles and I always thought that Dungey's style on Suzuki was better than on a KTM. I've tried to figure out how that can be.. Almost looks like he's saddle height was taller on the Zook. Dunno, but does anyone share my opinion?

Not to mention, I am a Dungey fan because it seems to get so many vitard's panties all knotted up. The more they complain and try to legitimize their hate.....the more I like RD.
The thing is, I don't watch racing for titles, I watch racing to see racing. I care much more about the individual race than I do about the title. A close title fight adds a bit, but if the week to week racing is dull, I don't much care. And Dungey is great at being dull. He's usually perfectly content with a 3rd place to add to his growing points total. I want to see a rider grabbing the race and taking it. I don't want to see riders settling because it is in the interest of the title.
And to be perfectly clear again, he is doing what he is paid to do. I do not fault him for his process, or his methods. That it leaves me indifferent is not an indictment of him. It's just that what his team wants, and what I want are different things. If I had his talent and were in the same situation as him, I'd probably do the same thing he is currently doing.
The dude is clean-cut, well-spoken and doesn't go around rolling rental cars and biting people's ears off. Plus, he weathered a storm of doubt from the MX industry about whether he was "fast enough" to cut it and has come out on top... how many times now? 3X SX and 4X MX championships?
Half the time I found the frustrating thing about Dungey were his fans on here. haha.
I also sometime wish he'd answer the damn question instead of censoring himself.
Let's not forget that he took JS7 out of the competition and never apologized.
He wants all to see him in a certain light, but not true to who he really is....he is fake and that's why many do not like him. He tries so hard, but real people see right through it.
I bet he makes less money than anybody else with his credentials.
And since I'm a turd, I worry you may eat me.
He may not be the most inspiring or even talented rider, he may be "boring" but he is a great role model. I don't know what he is like behind closed doors, but he seems like a genuinely nice guy.
He supports St. Jude, what have these other big bucks riders done for organizations like St. Jude? (I could be way off, maybe Reed, RV, Stewart, RC, Pastrana support organizations all the time and we just don't hear about it).
I like guys like ET, Dungey, and Canard because when I have kids I want them to have a good role model that works hard and is a genuinely nice guy. To me that's what these 3 guys represent.
Any one of these 3's parents should be proud of their boys. Not for their ability on a motorcycle, nor the money they have gained from the sport, but for the men they have become and the good examples they are in a society that continues to get lazier and crazier.
