Wasn't Ben on his Instagram earlier this week helping move all his old race bikes into the garage? Could be the case
wouldn't be the first time chad has trolled everyone with super ominous posts.....I certainly hope we see Suzuki, HEP, and JGR all out there in 2020 with or without Reed. Even if you hate Suzuki and are one of those guys that live to trash on them, you should not want a huge OEM to go away and a huge money team leave. Lets hope it all gets figured out!

If he goes that route, then he needs to talk to Honda and get MC's/Kenny's bike from last weekend.
It’s not eligible to race in AMA anymore.

A JGR mechanic, a new brand (not Suzuki)...

Wouldn't that also leave the possibility that JGR is exploring other brands than Suzi?

If they were to find some funding from another title sponsor, they can run any brand they want.
They have been (in the past) the least factory-dependent of the top tier teams.

Sure, anything is possible. I have no idea either way, I'm just going off of the rumor mill here. I was just making the case that if he were to go for a one and done finale race and JGR was no more, it would make sense to stay with the same mechanic he has been with. Sure hope it isn't the case though

Unfortunately it isn’t looking good. Mrstwotwo Instagram shows Chad loading up pro circuit suspension to go ride. Here’s hoping it comes together ok and he has a legit year and not just the A1 swan song

Just because it has yellow on it, doesn't mean it's a Suzuki seat. His big sponsor is Arma, yellow and black.

From what we know, if he doesn't get a ride then A1 is his last race.

Pretty crazy when a multi time champ with a huge number of race wins and fan favorite can't get a ride for his farewell year.

Sport has gone to shit.
time waits for no man.

You guys ever stop to think that JGR will stick around and they just picked Savatgy over Reed? I’ve been a Reed fan since 2003, but he’s always mentioned he would eventually be retiring and spending more time in cars. So if your budget is only enough for 1 450 guy then who are you going to choose? Someone who has had a great career and good for a podium or two or someone young who probably came for a whole lot less $$$

They're going with a 1 rider 450 team and a 1 rider 250 team?

Seems like a hell of an investment to put two bikes on the track. Not sure thats bringing in additional sponsorship money

Because it gets more likely every year, and it's been long rumored (not just this year) that this would be his last year. Been around for nearly 2 decades, he's bound to get talked about.
