Well, we WOULD have found out.
Carson brown had a chase sexton VS Carson brown on a KTM 150SX, on a supercross track..sadly, with how the final went during the Vegas finale, didn’t get the chance.
Wouldn't mind if he did, he needs to be up there every weekend, he's way too fun to watch when he's on.
Ask Prado
I’ll text him

New callsign. Chase “Setup” Sexton.
He needs to change Lecheins number off his bike before he disgraces it further being the biggest headcase since Craig
-what are the setup issues?
-what is his style and why is it worth keeping? And why does it cause problems with certain setups?
-why do some other PRO riders go just as fast with fewer chronic setup conflicts?
Kind of a bad mark for Kawasaki when their star rider prefers PC stuff over the factory parts.
Which in reality stinks for kawasaki ,99 percent of the people buying a bike from a dealership couldn't use either suspension to its full capabilities.
I'm not sure most people draw much of a distinction between the two.
Wait a minute, i thought the bike was fine and it was all Prado fault?
To me this makes the championship chase just that much more interesting. Just from his history and Kawasaki’s season for last year, I’d like to see them figure it out, bike or otherwise.
The one constant with Chase Sexton is change haha
PC/Kawasaki are almost one and the same in my mind, I can’t think of another longer lasting moto partnership. Full respect to corporate for using all available resources.
Both could be true..
Chase "The Setup" Sexton*
Jeff Ward rode an entire race with a blown shock.
Magoo rode with a missing footpeg and a left grip down by the tank.
Dungey rode with a suicide shifter, shifting over the triple.
As my dad has told me countless times:
“Just ride the damn bike.”
As truck said, if your bike isn’t working at 101%, you ride at 95% and salvage a podium. I guarantee that over a season, you’re better off backing down just enough and getting top 3-5 points consistently than throwing a whole new setup at it week after week and either crashing or having to back it further down because it’s a like riding a bull.
Pit Row
Fair point.
We can revisit that this summer.
He rides over the front, but wants a soft setup anyway. And just as RJ he trusts it to have great traction all the time. That's why he is so fast, he is closest to the limit at all time, but also why it bites him.
All the riders would be tweaking the setups if Jett was in it now. They are ok, because Jetts and Chases 0.5-0.8sec advantage hasn't made them realize they need to do something.
Those old stories, is just that, old. Ward and Magoo wouldn't stand a chance against the speed that today's bikes allows. It also means margin for error is less. It's not a comparison you can do.
I know a rider that was very fast during youth and junior time, but unfortunately had a father with attitude like yours. He have told me when he has now coached his kid to a few national titles, that if he would have been allowed to invest time and resources into setting up his bike properly, he is sure he would have reached the top national level. He still beats fast former nationals champions being over 40.
If you are not on it today, your third will be a 6-8 and that ain't cutting it. Jett wasn't happy with his shock after a few races, and even he could barely salvage a third and that is just shock clickers wrong direction type.
So Jett managed a third? And didn't crash or go off track multiple times when he wasn't happy with his setup?
That's the point.
“Where do you think he will land?”
I’ll bite. on his a$$
It’s a shame he is such a head case because he truly has the potential to be one of the best we will ever see
How long until he starts blaming the bike…..I’ll ground 8.
If Kawi is letting him do whatever he wants to the bike the Chase owns it 100%. And seeing the PC parts that showed up this week, it looks like Kawi isn’t getting in the way of whatever Chase wants..
We’ll see how tonight goes but potentially around 7:15pm pacific standard time
Well i really hope he can figure it out, even if that just means realising there is a limit that can only be pushed so far. Most of his issues occur when he is faster than everyone else, maybe he just need to realise that is it.
You might just be right
prado qualified second and eli first .., so there is that going for kawi and everyone saying that kawi did everything for prado and chase having to get off that awful KTM 😂
Post a reply to: Chase changing the whole setup!?
