Enough with the bus downs. Watches like that are worth less than the stock versions

Almost makes sense if he is going to fox. They use this to make even more money off Deegan prior to his departure.

Thor and Alpinestars still making use of Deegan till he boards his new gig, takes months to prepare a launch like this. Fox 100% going to happen, deal is inked.

Hey Michael, with it being relatively likely that Prado leaves Kawi, who will be beside Sexton?

If Prado leaves Kawi to take a bonus heavy KTM deal, is that to return to MXGP or stay in the US?

I think it’s to take the vacant 450 from Vialle returning to MXGP with Honda. Juju will be the sole 250 rider

Honda has a weak line up beside Jo and Chance.

If I were betting, I’d say Marchbanks.

He’s in SoCal, works with Tickle, has been around the 450 team quite a bit this summer. They talked about putting him on Anderson’s bike for the Summer at one point.

He’s under contract with Kawasaki directly (like all PC riders), so it’s easy to change the deal.

The pressure with Marchbanks is low, seems easy to slot in, will be solid, and allows them to transfer more time and energy into Sexton. Versus trying someone a bit more outside of their direct camp at the same time as they’re trying to learn and build with Sexton.

Marchbanks would be really cool to see. Hopefully he rides to his potential and doesn’t read names on jerseys. Would make for a great story.

So is BarX offering more salary and club wanting guys to take less cash because of the entire program? Seems like club is missing on some guys but maybe my view of club as being a step up from most of the other support teams isn't accurate?

I was hoping you’d say this, you’re right he would make a really good lieutenant to Chase and Broc has really brought the best out in him

Sounds like Bourdon is looking for a deal.

Thrasher has a contract at Star for next year.

Mosiman might be staying.

Masterpool, no clue.
