Have you heard anything about Kawasaki losing their Monster sponsorship? 450 and PC?

Would be more of a sign of additional cuts in the future which would not be good for the sport. Moto has been kept afloat by energy drink money over the last decade plus. If that starts to dry up(we've already seen Rockstar pull out) that's a bad thing for everyone.

Rockstar pulled out? How come no one told the Husky team, or Dean Wilson about that?

It's always possible, but I don't know how soon that will be. All of the press releases I found about them re-upping as Husky's title sponsor last year just said "multi-year".

Have energy drink sales declined the past few years or something?  Trades, first responders , teens, all seem to guzzle them like crazy.

certain ones I can imagine 🤷🏾‍♂️ , the ones I have seen ppl drink around my area & workplace have been the others sports drinks thts used for energy drinks in prime & body armor , I haven’t tried it yet but for some reason their popular. as a sport we need to start looking at other options as in getting these sports drinks sponsorship cause we can’t solely rely on energy drinks when the new wave of the population of the world is drinking primarily sports drinks

I heard a rumor that Anthony Bourdon will remain at Bar X Yamaha (formerly Suzuki) for 2025 (250 SX only). Not sure on if Max Miller, Preston Buespflug or Dilan Schwartz will return for next year. It'll be interesting to see how Triumph will do with Forkner, Swoll, Smith and Roberson next season then Savatgy if he stays!

I believe BarX is full, they already have four 250 riders. I also haven't heard anything linking Lopes to them. His interview with Matthes was kinda damning on his ability to race Supercross with his elbow issues.
