Just finished up listening to JTs Industry seating. It’s a quality listen.
He mentioned the Sexton almost left Kawi before the Nationals and sounds like he is moving on for 27. Star?
Most likely Marchbanks out at Kawi, maybe Mookie?
Jcoop tested Ducati,
He reckons Webbs gone, Tedders sounds about right, Monster, SX only, still wear Fly etc
Hunter has signed an extension at HRC to align with Jetts 5 yr deal.
I hope Marchbanks stays at Kawi for 2027, or finds a good ride elsewhere.
He's earned it.
Think he goes back to PC

Got a link to this listen?
I couldn’t see sexton at star, they already have Deegan, and I don’t think Bobby would allow the drama sexton brings

I do not think Sexton leaves Kawasaki at end of 2026. Husqvarna closing the factory shop doors only makes a ride tougher to line up. Chase has speed, but he has done a good job hiding it this year. He may need to pull a Mike Larocco, and throw Dad overboard. Not a huge Sexton fan, and I still wish for his own sake that he would get to a good spot with the bike and let his natural instincts take over.
Top 15 in points means he can't drop back down to a 250 next year
Chase already puts so much pressure on himself and it sounds like his dad does the same. Can you imagine Bobby ALSO saying insane shit to chase? He just might retire if he ends up at star.
Think its time for dad to become a spectator.
Chase is a grown man.
Pops needs to take a hike. He’s a cancer to any team they go to. Maybe if he ends up at star they wont put up with his or his dads shit and set them both straight
Hunter extending to match Jett basically guarantees Shimodas 450 career won't be on Red, so you can pretty much start listening for the jungle drums on that.
Why in the hell, would Mookie even consider Kawasaki? I mean, ‘27 brings a “new” bike but not a new management team!
Yessir.
Chase will loose so much money leaving Kawi, he has proven he can ride that bike and win he needs to stick it out. In his own words last year regarding Prado complaining about the bike he said something to the effect of everyone rides the motorcycle before signing the contract so they shouldn’t complain about it and make it work.
I'd love to see Malcolm on a Ducati. Bummed Husky is dropping out, he had some pretty good rides this year.
Very good. Carry on.
Moto Aggregate App has it
Pit Row
idk, money?
Sentence #1- based on what exactly?
Sentence #2- what evidence of this do you have?
Sentence #3- ponder on that one for a moment 😂
Realistically, where can Chase go? Triumph for low money?
Rumors Mookie doesn’t want to race outdoors after this year, can’t see Kawi signing him SX only, so unless they convince him to race nationals that’s a long shot for me.
Exactly. HEP would be a better fit for Mookie. A lot of movement is held up this year waiting to see what Chase does. Surely this will be more settled by end of June.
i mean if he continues on this path his value is tanked for his deal for 2029. so 2 years of money then what??
If he leaves & gets back to where he's been the last 5 years then he'll be valuable. The money will come back if he performs. Maybe that's what he needs? He is still pretty young. 26. 6 years younger than kenny & 7 younger than Eli.
If he's going to leave kawi he needs to win or at least consistently be balls fast.. If he 100% believes the bike is that bad then it's over. This game is so mental. Try to go figure it out & ride 6-8 more years. or spend 3 years killing his confidence like james did on yz. James openly states it took until 2014 rmz to get his confidence in riding back. 2 years after getting off the yz.
Also...i ride kawis. My rigs dialed, feel great on it. Big Chase fan too. I just want to see Chase out there & I haven't seen that in a while so whatever he's gotta do, let's get it poppin.
A 7 & 27 combo at Kawi would be pretty sweet for SX. Then have AP and bring up a 250 guy for outdoors if 27 is SX only.
I think this is correct, and I believe he will move over to Star at the end of his current contract.
The 27 would look good on an RMZ. Especially in the whoops
Malcolm is FXR. Ducati is TLD If Webb goes to Tedder as it sounds I wonder if Malcolm could go back to Star
If Chase gets out of his deal and Kawi doesn't completely restructure their race team on the back end/management side, then I don't know if there's any hope for them to win a championship in the near future. If two of the fastest guys in the field leaving your team early in as many years isn't a wake up call, I don't know what would be.
Kawi can restructure all they want that is not going to change anything . Who do you think is going to be a championship contender ? That they can hire .
