I would never say a kawasaki corners as good as a suzuki or a ktm....most would agree...and i have been on kawis the last 2 years..sold the 450 though, even with 20mm RG3s and RG3 revalve it didn't corner as good as other mx bkes could....down to personal opinion as well though
Honda's always turned great, And with A factory HPSD who knows?

Nice bike, Chad needs some leathers with that bike, MX gear does not feel right on that ride.

Well judging by the colours of the grear (if it is him) then I think he might be on a Zook....but who knows until a offical announcement is made.

Btw. the theory about it not being a honda because we can't see the exhaust wrap around the frame doesn't quite work yet, the exhaust would be dark and i dont think we would see it anyway in that photo

Found it Scottie

that's pretty cool.

But how do we know it's just not a bike he bought to train on and not the one he'll be contracted to ride in 2011?

If he was riding for Honda next year it would be a CBR, if he was riding for Yamaha it would be an R1, etc... your logic doesn't work in this case.

Those are not exceptional bikes. Those are old technology, cookie cutter bikes that have been around for years.

The Ducati & KTM are works of art, & not even comparable to a Honda or Yamaha.

And my logic works for me just fine as it satisfies my hopes!

(please go to honda, please go to honda, please go to honda, please go to honda,)

You really don't know much about street bikes do you. I've been road racing for a while and the Ducs are junk, always broke. Yhe CBR 1000 crushes the 40 k duc on the track. As for the RC8 that's even worse. lol
I really don't care how long you've been road racing, or what you ride quite honestly. I don't care about your opinion on the KTM or Duc, nor my knowledge on street bikes.

I just hope he's NOT on a KTM!

Someday you'll learn to appreciate fine european craftsmanship, or not, again, not caring.

Do you race for Honda? If so, please convince them to sign Reed!

I may start caring after that.

I posted it. I thought you deleted it for a second thread as you should... It's definitely a Honda though.

You could tell that from the first time he rode the bike in Australia... not a surprise though because any recent Kawis I have ridden don't turn as well as Suzuki, Honda or KTM..

You guys are pretty obsessed trying to guess his bike... just be patient!

if you look, close the gear is the same color as the gear he is wearing on the ducati, so i would definatly say if that is him in the whip pic...the bike is probably red

that one was really by accident, us moderators have a delete button on the bottom of every thread, right next to where your "edit" button is, and if you dont have a sig, and if someone makes a link or a photo at the bottom of their post, its right on top of the delete button and easy to hit if im not paying attention. (see pic)

Since you guys are having fun going out on limbs and and speculating, here's something to think about:

Ducati is the parent company of Husqvarna.

Unless it's been shuffled again, it should be Ducati. Tongue

It appears you are correct....but even more importantly, I am wrong!

Looks like BMW took ownership some time back.
