I'm hearing that Tomac might be back at Kawasaki instead of KTM for next year.

Is this true or is he with KTM for next year?

I told my wife that Eli would not ride a steelie - so if this is true, I called it.

Would be weird considering he’s at the KTM track in Murrieta with Prado this week.

KTM had to make space for Prado.

Maybe he's testing a KTM, like Ken tested a Stark...

Kooksey did a video on this. That could be the origin of the rumor.

I’m hearing Suzuki in 27 Triumph in 28 Ducati 29. Exciting news if true.

My sons old Jr. High bus drivers ex wife's mechanic says Stark is rebranding as Bultaco. No word on if a Pomeroy had been found to pilot it in the GPs.

A kid that played on my son’s basketball team, his mom’s boyfriend has a freestyle ramp he got from Pastrana because he used to be a mechanic - I’ll ask him at the 5th grade football game Saturday ..

Tomac will be on a KTM 100%. He will not be on a Kawasaki !!

'I heard' he's on Zundapp.  Surprise return of historic brand.   'I heard', without reference means, 'I made up'.

^^^Even I would like to see it, but it’s been almost confirmed he’s going to KTM.
