Aaron Plessinger is the best KTM rider.

Mikkel Haarup wins overalls.

Joe Shimoda doesn't win SX nor MX championship.

 

That’s a bold prediction considering Haarup got beat by Vincent Wey yesterday.

Really. Which class? Saw him battling with Deacon Denno but never saw Haarup

Malcolm Stewart wins another 450SX race.

Prado Second in points 450MX.

Kenny Holds the red plate early in 450SX again.

Cooper Webb very close in the points chase very late in SX again. Somehow. The dog.

A somewhat unexpected 250SX champion on one of the coasts. Someone who needs it bad like Ryder D, Pierce Brown, Casey Cochran, or Daxton Bennick.

If the rumors about Jo being injured aren't true, he and Deegan have a repeat of 2025 Vegas SMX for the SX title. Both of them are taken out. This results in a complete unknown HRC rider to win the 250 SX title, he removes his mask while accepting the trophy, revealing himself as none other than Tom Vialle.

More reasonably, Tom Vialle makes an appearance in 450 SX.

4 Complete mudders in SX.

Justin and Dylan don't get along with eachother at TLD Ducati.

KTM inexplicably still has rear shock issues.

My bold prediction for the 250 class is the following. Star Yamaha doesn't get a single W in SX if we exclude Deegan and Davies. And the overall results for the other riders will be disappointing.

My bold predictions for the 450 class is the following. Eli Tomac wins more races than Chase Sexton. And Jason Anderson will have his worst season in his career from a results POV.

Bold is not saying Jett is winning all three 450 titles. 

Mine:

1. Chase will beat Jett straight up(not a bad start, crash, exc. from Jett) more than three times.

2. Prado will win southwick.

3. Ricky will say, “Prado and Sexton basically switched teams.” More than 10 times.


What yall say?

#3 isn’t a bold prediction imo.

To hell with SMX, my bold SX predictions:

Two yellow bikes on the podium for the first time in approximately 64 seasons. 
There’ll be one round without a Lawrence on the podium. 
We see a return of the real beast mode. Not the overdone reference used anytime Tomac is fast, but the original ballistic all of a sudden two seconds faster beast mode.

-Jett does not win the supercross title or SMX. And all without getting injured.
-Tomac has an unusually good year, possibly gets 1 of the titles.
-Chase tucks the front on yet another bike
-Deegan beats Jett straight up outdoors to go 1-1 at least once next summer.
-Webb retires after SX.

KTM doesn't fix Prado's issues. He struggles with inexperience in SX, which he carries over into outdoors. Misses races due to questionable injury, and doesn't race in US in '27.

 

Webb will get 2nd in SX points due to consistency and injuries, but won't win more than a couple races.

 

Deegan doesn't defend his 250SX title.

 

Sexton still washes out the front end. Inconsistency costs him both titles.

 

Plessinger or Mookie get another SX win.

 

Hunter podiums in SX at least half a dozen times, but gets robbed of his first win by Jett.

 

Tomac gets hurt in either SX or MX, and gets top 3 in the championship of the other, but isn't a threat for the title.
