Just noticed today it looks like KTM/GasGas/Husky might not win a major moto championship this year. When is that last time that happened?

SX 450 - Yamaha
SX 250 East - Honda
SX 250 West - Yamaha

MX 450 - Honda or Yamaha
MX 250 - Honda

MXGP - Honda
MX2 - Yamaha or KTM

Looks like Tom Vialle is their only hope in MX2 since he’s only 2 points behind heading into the last round. Either way, great showing from Honda and Yamaha this year.

1 out of seven is better than nothing, assuming Vialle comes through.

New model blues.

Not too many fans of the new 250 factory motor and rear shock.

KTM has some off season work to do.

2007 was the last time KTM didn’t win a top level MX or SX title. Can’t afford as many top tier riders when your budget is falling into the MotoGP black hole

Compared to previous years it is, the factory team is down to 1 rider in most classes. Not much redundancy for when things go wrong
