It already did in the early 2010’s. Cairoli was the only one to make it work

Not only Cairoli, Kenny also raced the 350 from 2011 to 2013 for some 450 SX races and almost won one of them on it.

Didn't Alessi do pretty well on one at the Glen Helen USGP, too?

Him and Shorty did pretty decent during the nationals also.

“I'm not motivated to get a contract, I'm motivated to win races that I enter. I'm sure [the results] will help some people make a decision, but I don't know. It's not really important to me at the moment, I just want to finish this season as best I can and prove to myself and the people who believe in me that I can still race Supercross. This season I've had problems with the bike, but we've made some decisions. important and we have made big changes that have borne fruit. When I have the bike I want and I feel good on it, I can deliver good results.”

Im sure he will find ride he is just too good to retire.

Any truth to the rumors that have HEP switching OEM's? Maybe to Kawasaki?

Kenny looked pretty good in the one national he raced this year and just got a 3rd off the couch so that 2012 Suzuki cant be that bad.

In the last Silly Season 450 video ML mentioned those talks pretty much went dry.

For some reason I'm guessing Gas Gas, but as I said it's a guess. It seems most of the other teams have enough 450 riders. I wish Mitch could somehow swing a 450 for him, but he's a 250 team.

Didn't PC field a 450 ride for Martine Davalos one year?

Honestly, him and Michael pump it out pretty fast now. I like how Michael has pushed the limits, but there’s still stuff they don’t say.

No, for Broc Tickle because he pointed out while under contract. Tick took a huge hit financially, but he got to ride a 450.

They did it as well for Rattray for outdoors one year. Wilson also rode a 450 a couple races outdoors one year.

If you're only as good as your last race then that ol' thing is doing ok.  That yellow queen just beat every Honda, Kawi, Yamaha, Husky, GasGas and KTM with the exception of 1 Honda on the entire gate.

One note is the original rumors of Mosiman to Triumph seem to have been false, it doesn't sound like he has a ride as of right now.

Does it sound like they're just going with Ferry and Swoll, or are they looking at someone else to be the third guy?
