So , not only do you waste time looking at what these "idiots " have to say but you then waste more of your precious time at your keyboard typing the above piece of literary genius ?? Wow , I guess you have a lot of time to waste. Then again there probably isn't much to do anyway while you sit in your double wide waiting for your social security check.
Are you a complete retard or just 90% there ?? By the way great grammer and punctuation.

Thank you, i have never heard truer words said.
Dude ur an idiot urself, if you dont like looking at threads why did you look at this one?
Thank's for those kind words however I must point out when referring to yourself you use a capital " I ". Also "urself" is spelled "yourself".Apart from that , with a little punctuation assistance , that wasn't a bad effort.
Just heard that Bubba is racing Honda for Factory Connection / Torco next year with Trey Canard on the team, everyone else has been canned . KW has a deal with Kawasaki.

Wouldnt be suprised if Kawi went through with this.

Remember what RC said. When he went to Honda, Kawi never even gave him an offer and just let him go. They knew they wanted Bubba at the time and couldnt give RC the money and contract he would have wanted. They are probably doing the same with Bubba and looking to save loot for RV. I would also assume Kawi is kinda upset about Bubba not leaving Red Bull. He has to run the logos on his gear and bike cause of the Kawi title sponsor, but Bubba is in no way allowed to promote it in any way cause of his Red Bull contract.

I don't know if James is leaving or not, but if he leaves, I'd bet it'll be for a JGR deal. And as stated before, Villopoto is ready to take over in the big truck. So it's a clear possibility.

I've said it before, 5 years from now there won't be a single factory team in the pits. The factories will get more bang for their buck supporting satellite teams.

Let's look at the big picture: (some speculation and my opinion here!)

-JS's contract with Kawasaki is up at the end of this year but he has an early release clause.

-JS is VERY upset he's losing big money because of the whole RedBull deal. (fact)

-JBone and JS are still great friends and were a very successful team (fact)

-Kawasaki needs to free up money for RV and Stroup

-James has not given Kawasaki anything near the results expected of him. (fact)

-JS and his family have been long time friends with Joe Gibbs (fact)

-JS and big James have been seen hanging around the JGR NASCARS pits for years. (fact)


It's my opinion that the JGR MX/SX team was created for the sole purpose of transitioning James into a future NASCAR career.

flame away! Tongue

I don't think RV will be with Kawasaki on 450's, just another rumor.

Why does everyone assume Villopoto will be Green next year? I know for a fact that at least one other brand is going after him.. And if there is one, there is 5.

I agree with some points here Terry...but some...No.

I dont think Kawasaki needs to free up any cash for RV, JS brings more attention than RV does, and if Kawasaki had to choose one it would be JS.

And James has made Kawasaki SOOOO Popular again, they are licking their lips at the corporate head office. He is the current Champ... cant complain about that.

I do think James will go to JGR, but the biggest reason in money. Both from the Team and from Red Bull. And the fact that JBone is there is a HUGE bonus for James.

By freeing up cash for RV I mean that Kawasaki can't afford both RV and JS, and if they want to keep RV on green they will need the cash to do so. The JS train has run it's course at Kawasaki, RV is the future.

All that Toronto smog is poisoning your brain my southern friend. You need to stop sniffing the power washer exhaust fumes and admit the only good racing ahead of james is the race to the emergency room.

Actually, I haven't forgotten. In my best recollection, he mostly looks like a pile of bike and body parts scattered willy-nilly about the track.

Bubba is staying put (atleast throughout the Outdoor Nationals). Just silly rumors floating around...that's all.

While James may or may not go to JGR, money will NOT be his primary reason for leaving.

NOT the primary reason

I could care less if he got fired. I only hope the guy can get back on the bike and stay on it for a full season.
