One dick pulls a dick move on another dick who pulls a dick move back. Think I’ve covered everything there.

I’m Switzerland on this…I think is was aggressive but he’s always aggressive and as an opponent you need to be aware of your surroundings….its pretty chickenshit to wait around and retaliate while getting lapped…with that said I feel the AMA handled it appropriately…now what I’m seeing here is the opinions clearly are based on which rider you are a fan of….lots of rose colored glasses being worn by vital members on this subject….

Anderson has pulled multiple dick moves on Hunter this season, I might have missed it, but this is the first dick move Hunter has pulled on Anderson.

Penalties seem appropriate for both.  Anderson really had no need to run Hunter as high as he did and put him down.  Hunter shouldn't have retaliated in the way that he did.

I respect your opinion.Cool

For the record, I've never been a fan of JA..... and I really dislike Huntah.

Idk who’s harder, this forum for Hunter or the AMA for Jason. People defending Hunter would be in here flaming Vince for weeks if that was him in that situation. I think it’s sad to see so many people mad at Jason for that pass. SX fan hood has certainly changed over the last 10-15 years.

I see the comments saying Anderson is going to do what he wants to because he DGAF, but I can’t help but think Kawasaki does care what he does.

Kawi has told Anderson to tone it down because they don’t want to deal with the issues.

Other manufacturers are trying to protect their franchise riders and don’t want to deal with this shit either… 

So, when Anderson continues to get himself into situations where he’s getting penalized by the AMA and then posts on social media that he’s fine with playing the bad guy role, what does Kawasaki do? I doubt Anderson asked Kawi if he could post what he did, and doubt even more that Kawi wants him playing the bad guy.

But, since Anderson does what he wants on the track and off - Kawi has to rely on the AMA to penalize Anderson (which has had - and will continue have no effect) and by Kawi not taking action against Anderson themselves - they’re allowing Anderson to dictate how fans and other teams view team Kawi and it’s sponsors.

Hunter isn’t innocent either, and I’d guess that Honda doesn’t want him retaliating. And, both the Honda and Kawasaki teams themselves probably have enough mutual respect for each other and the investment that they put into their team/riders/brands/sponsors that they are relying on each other to tell both their riders to knock the shit off.

These riders get paid a lot of money, and I can’t help but think that when the team gives them a directive- they expect the rider to follow it, so it makes me wonder if Kawi sees Anderson as difficult to work with and what they’re willing to put up with?

 

Kawasaki and more specifically, Bruce Sterjnstrom are not happy with this stuff at all. They want to be in the highlights for winning races, not penalties.

GJ AMA. A slap on the wrist for a guy that didn’t break the rules and a token fine for the guy that did only because of past precedent . A guy with an undeniable reputation goes out of his way at an amateur race to break someone’s leg, crickets.

Hunter 100% should have been black flagged. If his last name wasn't Lawrence he would have.

Hunter left the door open. Anderson rode him high. Hunter is a bitch for the cheap shot while a lap down.

I was waiting for the black flag, isn't that exactly the situation Reed got black flagged for years ago?

Ando does make some bonehead moves, but the pass on Hunter was pretty clean. Enough contact on the boot to destabilize him, but it isn't like he smashed him off the track.

Saying the pass on AC9 was bad is silly too. Jason took the line and AC ran out of track.

The passes were aggressive, sure, but they weren't reckless.

Let off the gas and stand the bike upright, instead of leaning in further. There was room to ride that out.

I didn't say there was no contact.

If you're going to call that a dirty pass, then we have a fundamental disagreement on how racing should be done.

Hunter came through that turn unbalanced, unwilling to give up the line Jason took from him, and Jason got the better of him.

So Jason never actually made heavy contact with the bike and was turning down. If you are looking for a take-out you drive through the rider and his bike until they are going down.

Very aggressive pass just as was Hunter's attempt when he came from the outside to the inside on Jason a few weeks back.

Anderson didn't need to make heavy contact, contact was precise, colliding with Hunter's left hand and handle bar, rotating the handlebar, you have to respect Anderson's skill!

Hunter started to wash the front end before JA even made contact yet he’s still fined 

You gotta be some kinda retard to walk away with this interpretation of events.

Yeah, because Kawasaki is probably stoked about Forkners social media posts and comments…
