What do you notice in terms of the bike itself? It doesn’t look like it wants to turn down into turns and his bike looked to want to stand up mid corner. Yes the bike looks stable, but in the whoops it looks to kick as well. This break should give them an opportunity to get to work on it. 
 

Does anyone else notice anything?

I've noticed that the bike went from red to orange and not much has changed.

This quote is kind of scandalous. Maybe a collab with Target?

He doesnt look as explosive and fast on the KTM (that's not necessary a bad thing). Also, his KTM is not as fast as some of the bikes in the whoops.

Looks to me like he is trying to be more consistent/smart this season. Not balls-out tuck the front type of riding. He's still dialing in the bike too. He's doing great so far.

Sexton had problems with his hand. Before this he said the bike was good.

Saw it tuck a few times. Just not full tuck.

Seems fairly clear that Sexton isn’t able to push as hard on the KTM. Not necessarily a bad thing just hope for his sake they can work things out.
