He could be dangerous now. A stint in the real world could be exactly what he needed. Talent was never an issue.

I imagine expectations are just to have fun and enjoy it, but position wise... top 15? 8-12? What's everyone think, the dude can rip and maybe has more fire after bein away.

In 450s after a year+ off? I’d say 15th or so is being realistic.

Hope him the best of luck but that's a pretty roached out bike for a PR hope they give him a good bike to race!

He was finishing 13th on JGR, now he's on a bike that I can only assume isn't nearly as good relevant to the competition, he's had a year off and the field is much deeper. I'd be impressed if he could make the mains consistently but I might be wrong because he's a pretty unpredictable guy.

He'd be lucky if he gets a top 10 in the first half of the season.

What happened with the Sheriff Deputy thing?

People are quick to forget he almost won a 450 main on the JGR Suzuki when he was still full time 250.

I think top 10 if he’s putting in the work.

I'll bite. Which factory guy(s) are you putting behind him? If you're saying top 10, that's implying a few. Let's hear them.

I didn't forget that, but he never came close to replicating it. I did forget about the run he had in 2020 where he went 5-6-6 but I just looked up his results and out of his 32 races in the 450 class where he was racing it full time (so not counting the ones he did while he was on 250s) 11 of those are top 10s. I think after a year off, deeper field and a bike that isn't as good that thinking he can jump right into the top 10 is ignoring logic. But like I said he's an unpredictable guy and I could end up eating my words here.

Tomac, pless, Malcolm, Webb, roczen, Ferrandis, AC, Barcia sexton, Marv, Anderson, zacho.

That’s 12 can’t see him consistently beating those guys I think 13-16 is realistic.

PRMX certainly got the hole shot on ugliest bike in the pits.

"Wait another open spot? Let's slap a logo on there!"
Agreed. But on the other hand I guarantee you I am not going to forget that Partzilla is a sponsor of PRMX, so I guess mission accomplished to the marketing designer.

All valid points, and I’m in the same boat with my statement as well as far as eating my words. That unpredictability isn’t always a good thing

When they're all listed out like that... Wow yeah. It will be interesting to see what he can do. I would say he's at the end of that line, perhaps battling with bogle and whoever else fighting for those first non factory positions.

Easy there Bobby. No one disputes his talent, it is the talent and opportunities he has kicked to the curb people question and I am one of them. All he talked about was how he could ride a 450 so much better and what he would do if he got the opportunity, blah, blah, blah.....outside of the odd flash, just enough to keep the industry believing in his potential, he would consistently underperform. He has been the one talking the talk so don't piss and moan about people questioning the signing. Hill has given them every right to do so.

Maybe Kawasaki has a line of guitars that he is after..Whistling

Anyways another rider back is great...one less spot for a hardworking privateer.

Dude's wasted so many sponsor's time and money. Looks like he's done the same to the Sheriff's Dept that hired and trained him. Not surprised at all.
