That would be awesome for Reedy to get a deal like that for his final ride. KTM would do good to have Reed for 1 year

And since he seems to enjoy records, he could go out as the only guy to have complained about all manufacturers. Laughing

Reeds a 15th place guy who’s had one foot out of the sport for years. He barely rides or trains and blame it on everyone else but the truth is it’s not his priority anymore. I don’t fault him for that, he’s done his part. Give the ride to someone who might benefit from it. Im also over his cocky know it all, I’m better than everyone attitude. Not to mention the word “ummmmmm” 80,000 times per interview. Amazing rider but get out out the way for the new kids. Literally.

He almost had the ride in 17 before they signed tickle. Im sure even if Reedy was mid-pack it would have been better press than having a cheater.

OK now that the Musquin cat is out of the bag (insert cat gear photo here), let's be honest....should KTM hire Chad? What is there to gain? Obviously the autograph line is long, but at the end of the day Reed will come in, start out reasonably well, have it go a bit sideways and by the end when he has nothing left to do but burn bridges, he will likely talk shit about something. If' I'm Roger, I've already seen this dance with other brands.

KTM could promote Martin Davalos from Tedder, or they could even make an offer to Benny Bloss who is very familiar with the factory KTM and could probably leave his Cycletrader deal without burning a massive bridge.
how much 'hire' is involved at this point in Reeds career (and with last years results) vs 'provide a bike, mechanic, etc. for him to come and race'? Might be very little in incremental cost to keep a second bike on the track until Marv is back.

And yet you’ve probably waited an hour in his autograph line before Laughing

Fuck no, if anything put Tickle back on that thing, Reed wouldn't gel with KTM and how they do things.

Should be close between them. They're the same age right?

Davalos is already in at tedder with a full factory ktm. So Reed at red bull makes sense it's a great deal. Everyone knows that at the end of the year it's over there's no vision of hope for a contract extention or anything.

Davalos getting bump to red bull and leaving tedder stuck with extra personal would suck unless reed went tedder?

How will Redbull feel knowing Reed would never consider drinking or giving his kids a Redbull?

I'd think personal sponsors will be the biggest problem...
Because i dont think KTM will allow any of the personal sponsors besides gear while he is on their bike and force him to run a redbull helmet and stuff like that right?

KTM needs at least one 2 on a bike since 2 will be 1 come A1.

I'm pretty sure they told him in the test results.

I don't think Roger would take the risk after all the shit Reed heaped on him and the team and Suzuki..
