Tony Bou has won the world trials championship every year since 2007. No curse for the Repsol HRC sponsored rider.
Gieser is one moto away from another world title.

They should make RC4 their brand ambassador or something like that, maybe that will do it.
The curse of the GOAT continues... KR94 was a lock for the title, and then...

Actually, any premier class title in the US would break the curse of the bambino (which came about when Honda refused to renew Carmichael’s contract even after he won them 24 straight motos and the 450 outdoor championship way back in 2004). They haven’t won a 450 championship here since.

I think Honda thought JS7 was gonna put a beat down on RC, but it didn't happen.

Probably motivated RC even more.
James beat RC many times...

Just slow down on the “many” times. It was all for not anyhow, RC ALWAYS Won the war.!in fact outdoor Rickys final part time season, he got the better of James every single time.

Incorrect. RC rode 2007 part time, and left the series the points leader.

They realised that building a solid, reliable, user friendly bike, was more important than who won on Sunday on a factory special.

Don’t know about over in the US but the Honda 450 is still the benchmark at club meetings.
