Apparently he practices riding a 450 "proper" but when battles pop up in a race he goes back to the ham fisted rev limiter thing.

He should spend a month riding with windham or pourcel.

I'd like to see Barcia on a 350. I feel his higher revving style would suit that bike better than a 450

They finally figured out the problem over there...it was pretty simple. They just forgot to tell Barcia that hes on a 4 stroke and not a 2 stroke. Look for the same exact results this year. Book it.

How many guys on the line at either of the first three nationals have won a 450 national O/A? Tomac, Marvin, Blake, Justin and Grant?

His line is hard to find.

Maybe I'm way off, but Reed going to KTM seems like a bad idea anyway. Dude seems like a negative drag, and you better hope your bikes have a good reputation because 22 will likely tell everyone they're shit. Sure he's popular with the fans, but behind the scenes do teams and possible teammates really want him poisoning the well? Barcia seems like a pain too. Remember the jealous Honda days? That said I'd take Barcia over Reed strictly on potential.
