So when Ken podiums/wins races on a bike that hasn't changed since 2018 (same engine since 2013?) then Suzuki all of a sudden doesn't look so stupid after all. Millions saved in R&D anyway lol. Wondering if this will move the needle in Japan at all.

I think roczen is the clear winner of the offseason. All eyes were on him. His sponsors must be happy with the attention he got.

That's the only way this was happening was he could keep Fox and Red Bull.

How will he ever get it started with no electric start? Is it even possible?

Weren’t they having a second group on 250s with the twisted tea as main sponsor I thought I heard this? 

i read that due to the 250 squad being under 21 they were not going to run twested tea on their bikes so a second semi would house kenny and the 250 squad 

the second semi will house the 450 squad and run twested tea logos.

very good business sense i think.

Whatever.  Halfway through the season, when he can no longer run the pace, the bike will be a piece of shit.  Oh well...good for him.

I'm more happy to see Suzuki as a player in 2023. Hope Kenny can put it on the box and show the world that the bike is not that bad.

AMA Supercross and motocross. 
 

guess he won’t be defending the fim world Supercross title. 

So I just inquired with the team about the way that is worded. The response I got when asking is he doing AMA Pro Motocross or World Supercross was "We'll make that decision when it comes time".

So not set in stone.
