I try not to put something out there unless I have a pretty good source. Sometimes even with that, I'll say it too early that it doesn't go through and then I just look crazy.

Any updated yet on HEP and their possible bike change or is it safe to say that they're staying on Suzuki for next year?

Why do I think there's an AC retirement announcement coming? And one of the "two good deals cooking" is the spot next to Jason?

What’s one silly season rumor that was widely believed in the industry but ended up being completely false?

I can’t see it.  Hey may not be winning races, but he is still hauling the mail and not doing too bad for working through an injury/issue.  
 

i hope it’s not the case, and I’m definitely not saying it’s happening, but I could see Jason Anderson retiring before Adam.

I'd have to think about that. Where there's smoke, there's usually fire. For example, I stated that Kitchen had an offer from KTM. He ended up at PC but he did have discussions with KTM and tested the bike...

Sometimes things just don't work out.

Do you know if Ferrandis will test the HEP zook' before eventually signing that contract for 2024 ?

Well, if you believe some rumors, he may have already.

Thanks for the reply!

And have you any idea (or more...) what would be the second option he actually would have for next year ?

Honestly, no clue. I haven't heard anything I would think is really that solid outside of HEP.

I for one was hugely wrong about the HEP/Roczen combo a year ago. It's turned out to be quite successful, I could see Mr. Roczen winning a moto at desNations. There is no reason Dylan Ferrandis couldn't do well there as well.

Mitch best 450 was Langston. But Yami grabbed him last minute, and won the outdoors that year with him.

It’d mean a hugely improved ROI for Kawasaki, IMO.

I hope not, he is finding his feet in 450 and getting there with his fitness... the sport owes him a good season. 

 

When you think that PC has had AC, Forkner, and Ryder D , all 'phenoms'  and have one championship out of all of them in god knows how many attempts,  its almost like they cut Ryder D loose cos they couldnt do it a third time.

From JT$

Dylan Ferrandis put in his best ride since Unadilla. I have heard he signed with a team and will remain racing stateside in 2024.

It's crazy to think that in the span of roughly 3 years, HEP went from having Adam Enticknap as their marquee rider to having one, and now potentially two, championship contenders on the team.

Good for them! Makes you think don't bet against Triumph, Beta, or Ducati.

Triumph and duc need to get bikes on track before they get the benefit of any doubt.

Why do I think when Mosiman discovered girls his career went off the rails. Did you hear why Mumford did not line up in the 2nd race last week ?

Important for the sport and everything else would have been a fucking shame.

That's my point. He had a homeless guy live with him before that.
