I don't like how RC said Jett and Chase have a "new" riding style. Everts whooped everyone's ass for over a decade with that smooth style.

This. It really bugs me that everts was doing all this shit years ago, but gets no credit for the style or even putting the foundation in for Jett & Hunter.

Way too much Jett exposure.    It gets old, people burn out on it.

Jett doesn't go undefeated against 2016 Roczen

Let's see what Jett does in his third 450 year. Let's be real, it doesn't get much better than that and he's just starting. But yeah, Kenny in 2016 was one of if not the best to handle a 450 outdoors in the last decade (before Jett), but sadly we can't have all the best riders in their prime in a single season lining up against eachother.

Now that's a good point. Good luck to these dudes a couple years down the line. Jetts 19 and only going to get better. History tells us a lot better. If the field had a shot at beating him it was this year.

Why are you getting roasted? Because you brought it up at all. Saying something like that comes from a place of jealously/bitterness. 

If he really didn't care, he never would have even mentioned it.

For what's it's worth, they're 2 of my favorite riders.

Glad Ken said it.  But not glad he didn’t just race outdoors.

He is mad that people are excited and impressed with Jett's riding.  Ken referred to him as a "good" rider.  Laughable, man, laughable.  Jett is beyond "good" and if the announcers didn't get excited over him then they need to find a new line of work.  

You left out the part where he said "Jett is amazing. No doubt. Extremely talented, mature racer."

Farmer J upset he's not getting attention. Are you the one that wrote this garbage article? 🤣🤣 how do you even find that, questionable internet usage there. 

Nothing to see here, Ken explained himself. Only a few people would consider this 'upset', due to poor reasoning and comprehension.

Ken Roczen? The guy who has the same amount of SX titles as David Pingree?

Ken never knows when to shut up.

 

I like Ken...and fully agree with his statement on Jett.

The sport is more interesting when the riders show their personalities, so no complaints from me. It's just... Rozcen is kinda cringe sometimes.

Ken just learned you can’t say anything that doesn’t 100% praise the Lawrence’s without getting ripped apart

For me, they deserve the exposure, it's the media flogging the background story to death.

Seriously, I really don’t get it either, it’s nothing new.

There's a video somewhere of Everts casually passing James, on the outside, like he's on a trail ride.

And that's relevant to this conversation why ?

Dood, I like to pitch it sideways mid corner and steer with the rear. Now what were we talking about?

I agree they are overdoing the Jett discussion, especially earlier in the year where they were showing him watching the 250 motos before his class was on the line.  You can't argue with his performance though and they seem to have backed off a little the past few races other than perfect season talk....and that is very justified.

Something tells me that ken is starting to realize that dropping down into obscurity to participate in WSX didn’t do anything for him. I mean with three months between rounds how are you supposed to maintain relevance… oh i know attack Jett and the media, that will fix everything!!!

I mean, he's not wrong. Did we all forget how good Roczen looks riding Unadilla? Or Pourcel? Lawrence is just doing it to more success. Which of course garners attention, but it's not some revolutionary riding style.
