That’s a good pick up for them grabbing Fast Fred. He is easily going to get the team their best results ever in 450.

Have you heard anything else on whether Forkner moves up or stays put after SX? Also, any rumors on KTM's 2nd rider outdoors if Webb & Marv go SX only?
I read a French article, and Webb said he's planning on racing both SX and MX next year.

I really hope he does. AP's a badass, but he can't pull the KTM wagon by himself.

To be honest, I'm not sure Webb would've done better than Plessinger this summer, and I don't know that he'll be much better than him next year.

I agree that KTM can't go racing outdoors just with Plessinger. If Webb opts out, maybe they'll sign Nichols since he's with HRC Honda just for SX. He's not exactly known for his outdoor results, but it would give them 2 bikes on track.

I’d Plan on Forkner being on a 450 for outdoors.

It’s such a terrible idea but it will probably happen.

Pretty sure it was part of his contract with Kawasaki. At least that’s my understanding of it.

Forkners mx results have gotten worse every year he has raced. He got 4th in 2016, about 13th in 17, 7th in 18, missed 19 and 20, 7th in 21, missed 22.
I can't see 450 outdoors being successful.

Well I mean racing a 450 can't really go worse than its been going for him recently? I'd say F it and just give it a shot. I don't think he'd be lighting the world on fire but who cares.

How many seasons trying to race a 250 have gone up in flames now? There's that old corny saying, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over but expecting a different result."

It’s almost Thanksgiving guys. Which means official team releases will be coming soon, can’t wait to see them all as we wait for SX to begin.

I dunno. He is like a second coming of ac but more crash and injury prone (insert it was jetts fault this season comment )
But ac looked to finally have it figured out. Then goes 450 and repeats it all over again.

Hey ML... With the top 9 450 riders all having contracts up end of this year and then the speculation of some riders wanting to move up from the 250 class... how long until Silly season speculations start? Whistling

Have we ever had a season where the top 450 riders all have contracts up?
