Yaa you shouldn’t do either but yaa I’m way serious in throwing your helmet over a bike lol are you serious? You’re the step up champ Ronnie Renner right? It’s wayyyy better to swap the helmet and have media saying he threw a helmet in frustration over ghost riding a bike. Ghost riding a bike after a bad moto means “fuck this bike” to me. Throwing your helmet after the moto tells me you’re pissed about your moto and frustrated. No one will think twice and think alpinestars makes shit products because he threw a helmet. Him ghost riding his bike tells me he hates the bike and is over it. Very very different. If im Maxima and he launches my chain lube, I could give 2 shits, if I’m Kawi and he ghost rides my bike, I’m fining you’re ass. So get lost with that
I’ve always thought I’d be a Great Life Coach. First thing I’d tell Chase is Pull Your Head Out of Your Ass! After that we’d hug it out and he’d still finish 4th.
What we want to know is if the bike hit Garret or anyone else.
I also wonder if Gareet is sick of any drama from the #1 guy while they pay him pennies in comparison.
I would also like to see this Rango guy look Jorge Sexton dead in his eyes and say...."You....you want me to pick up the bike?... The stand is right their mee ho"
I don’t think it is a local weekend decision by Kawi team mgmt to discipline or fire Chase. They will have to run it up a few levels and write a press release. Same as with Prado; corporate has their control and game plan.
Same as with AMA. They will have to do something, even if toothless championship points.

Rango should’ve left his bike right where he ghost rode it and took it to the starting line for the next moto as is and only topped off with gas
I guess I’ve been curious as well… ? All I see is people bashing him but I’ve never seen or heard why that is.
In all seriousness.... It would not shock me a bit to see a press release this week "Kawasaki and Chase Sexton have parted ways" ...... KHI does not put up with that kind of shit at all. Not after the lengths they have gone to please him.
ML confirmed with team members that it happened. I’m sure if there was video it would have surfaced by now.
Normally a guy riding back to the pits is a mundane occurrence so no-one would have been filming in anticipation of something like this happening.
If true that is a major problem itself with the way the team is managed.
According to the reports, the bike nearly hit Marchbanks, not hit him as in this thread title.
“Nearly hit” could mean anything from he had to jump out of the way, to standing nearby. Which is why some details would be nice before everyone gets their knickers in a twist, but too late.
ML’s word is good enough for me, but imo there’s all sorts of degrees to the level of seriousness to the situation. Which I’d like to know before totally crucifying someone. It was the same with Prado last year.
Not saying it’s not out of line though, because it is.
In reasoned adult equivalents that's what, a couple handfuls of people? You think C-Suite CEO's/Execs at $20B++ MNC's give .02c what a very narrow band of easily frothed fanatics in a almost closed loop i.e. populating a forum with near zero audience/reach/influence outside it's small footprint, thinks. They don't.
It's the same core group of you weighing in on most things with outsized hyperboly. Does anybody have real context? 2 MPH step-off? 20mph aim and shoot? You don't, yet you believe yourselves informed sufficiently to draw outsized conclusions, and even better, recommend his termination "Hey Dan? DO IT!". Sure. Yep. Bet he's printed that off.
Until context presents itself I think the suggestion he be fired premature. Where's Vital's reporting on this? Use that access you claim so important to transparency to report, you know, actual news/facts/eye-witness accounts.
C’mon mate, you are starting to split hairs here. The act itself is inappropriate, not whether or by how much it missed someone else.
Edit to add - the action/penalty should be appropriate to the actual outcome, not whether it should be investigated and actioned.
You know, there's always 2 sides to a story, and so far this entire thread is based on one MXA tweet and ML stating team members confirmed the incident happened.
But what about after? Is there a chance Chase was apologetic and remorseful to Marchbannks and the team for a momentary emotional outburst?
Logic would suggest that an act of this nature without remorse or explanation gets you benched immediately for at least the day by a competent management team.
I wouldn’t want him if I were his employer now. I also wouldn’t want to cut him loose to go to another team. I’d want to have him sit out without pay for a while to reconsider his choices.
He has no right to treat his team like that no matter how upset he is. I think he needs psychological help and a neurological evaluation if he’s having that much trouble controlling himself.
Comments he liked on Instagram 😂
Sexton is fuckin retarded. Hope Kawi shit cans him and picks up RJ or Stewart
Does Anybody know tbe actual make of bike Chase wants to ride.
He is one hell of a rider but it seems he has disrespected His Teams a few times now.
Ghosting your Bike when Losing is not cool. Him & Ken will make a good Team
Pit Row
Quoting this to ensure it gets seen twice. This is very telling.
Good thing you don’t run a factory team.
It would be shit.
Get that man on a Suzuki. It's always seemed like a natural fit for what Chase is looking for.
I hate seeing talent wasted.
I like the idea…. But the front end washes don’t lend themselves well to a kick start.
Why is everyone from California full blow fuckwits?
Point taken.
The hope being that the front end feel of the Suzuki would lead to less of that.
You might be right; Suzi is a very well balanced cycle. I just want to see Chase in the mix riding to his potential, more the merrier when it comes to the podium rotation.
Ryno
That's a CLM if there ever was one. Wow, it's that bad over there for real huh. Again. Again for kawi AND again for sexton.
Head case sexton the ghost ridin front tuckin munson man.

Ryno is the biggest head case out there.. remember when he was shacked up with 2 girls “the chickens” and he was going on about finding a higher frequency and talking gibberish?
Ryno..... The same guy who ghost rode a KTM 125 into the pits after a bad moto? Bitched and called his bike a moped? Yeah, he is exactly what Chase needs.......
