JGR switched to Suzuki and didn't win.
Roczen switched to Suzuki & won.
The problem isn't Suzuki. The problem isn't the team. The problem is the riders.

It will be interesting to see if Joey can get similar results like he did on the KX when he comes back. Seems like he only went to JGR because it was his last option at that point.
There were 4 Suzuki's in the 450 main at Tampa last night. That's more than KTM, Husqvarna, Kawasaki, and Yamaha had in the field.
More than anything, JGR has bad tuck and timing with picking their riders.
If the 2021 honda ends up being lightest and most powerful in class as they are claiming, and 2021 suzuki is bng the divide just gets even wider
JGR is a successful NASCAR team, but cars and bikes aren’t the same thing. The vehicle dynamics are completely different. Kenny Roberts proved this many years ago when he hired some great F1 engineers to build a MotoGp bike. It was a complete failure. They just don’t understand that asphalt auto racing and motorcycle racing doesn’t use the same engineering goals. Rigid chassis are great for cars but not good for bikes.....
JGR is where your career goes to die.
You have aboslutely no clue what your are talking about!!!! Seriously man. You havent the slightest clue what it takes to tool up a new bike even with minor updates the tooling costs are in the millions.
Suzuki had been at the forefront of most of the current technology used today.
Ita insanity that so many people hop on the the Suzuki is heavy and old wagon!!!
Good thing you arent pro, cause you wouldnt know a properly set up bike if it slapped you in the face
Pit Row
What experiences have you had with the Suzuki? Please explain your logic? Because from what I can read there is non. Your saying the bike is heavy? Where is the weight at and at what point did you start to see it becoming a disadvantage? What exactly is outdated on the bike? The kick start?
(You may need to pull up the vitals cliffs notes on the subject) im sure you like many others on here have ZERO experience when it comes to this bike.
Your saying the jgr bike is at a disadvantage? Please elaborate?
My feelings dont get hurt whatsoever. I guess this is a case where I can't argue with stupid.
I think before Tampa, suzuki have only gone through in the heats maybe once or twice so far for the west coast rounds
They haven't changed much tooling when approx 90 of the parts from the 2008 bolt up to the 2017.... I owned both, well a 2009 and a 2015.
i know you had a hard time selling your rmz450, please post a pic of it and i'll do a break down of why no one wanted it.....
you listed so much aftermarket crap and "mods" that you did to that bike, let's face it, the bike looked like shit in the photos... please post one of your ad pics... mine sold in 24 hours. i love the zooks, wish they had e-start, i'd have one right now instead of the 19 kx450.... but i'm still not bashing the yellow bike, it's an awesome machine.. your 450 was completely molested and it showed, that's why no one wanted it.... not because it was a suzuki. sorry, but i'm just over it with your suzuki bashing, it's really uncalled for...
Nice bike. Btw
I may be going red next year if the '21 Honda is what I think it will be. But I will aways have a Zook in my fleet.
Post a reply to: JGR...how things have changed.
