Team Manager post turns into Twitter Stupidity…
That’s how I see it these days.
I wish him & his team the best!
I never understood a lot of the negative stuff/posts about Larry and the whole L & M hate thing when all that went down....Leave Larry Alone Gate and all that stupid shit!
He's really a super nice guy and always has been - even at the peak of his career. I met him at Washougal back when he was still racing for Noleen and racing that 360 in the 500 Nats. He pulled into the pits after his first moto and putting in a decent ride riding the hell out of that 360 against factory 500's. Got off the bike tired... put it on a stand before his mechanic even had time to. I walked over to him and asked him about that 360 kit. He was still taking his helmet off and started cleaning his glasses answering any of my questions and was super nice. Most pro's would've been like... dude give me a bit let me catch my breath or just total rock star you. I always thought that was super cool of him. From people that know and have met him I've heard nothing but good things for the most part. He's a total moto man to the core and very passionate about the sport. Also when he was still racing the guy had more heart than anyone.
Now I know where Brian Deegan got his Yawn, open mouth squirrly maneuver from (7:35)

Not to derail the thread...Just asking
Pit Row
They come, post the reality of something then get told by a few armchair managers / fans / know it alls - that what they are saying isn’t true or not how it is. From the other side of a computer and miles away they push buttons and get the “insider” to engage in a useless argument for the sake of just having the ability to. Then they threaten to not buy their product or use sponsors products and they disappear. It becomes not worth it to be here and engage with the real fans who enjoy the interaction.
Arguing with an “insider” has zero ramifications as a fan of the sport, but someone who makes a living in the industry does have something to lose. This is why we don’t see the ones who potentially have customers / sponsors / bill payers post in here. Someone will inevitably take it to “well screw you man, I used to buy products you endorse, now I won’t”(even though we will never know if they actually ever did, or were gonna)
There are a lot of great fans and bench racers here, but a few get disrespectful and brave to argue because of it not being face to face.
Happens all the time, you know this especially if you’ve been around since the OG days. It’s the world we live in now. The ability to openly be disrespectful and not get punched in the face. Welcome to the internet.
I’m stoked Brooks is managing the team, with his knowledge and guidance we can see some clean looking Suzukis up front. I hope he brought Dillan Schwartz with him. Maybe groom a youngster like Matt Leblanc.
Suzuki promo video at Carlsbad in 1982, I was in one of these video that never made the cut in 1983 when I owned a Suzuki dealership in Socal
Here is when Suzuki was cool. Enjoy you whiners!!
