I actually had the same thought. Ryno is kind of a nut head but he does know how to ride a dirt bike. Maybe Chase could benefit from someone outside the box.🤔
Before a PR can be released, this event needs to go to the psychology department first, then to HR and then the Public Relations dept at Kawi.
I would grab RJ he would send that Kawi and wouldnt give up.
Marchbanks shows that bike is fine its just the nut job elite riders having issues
All my homies hate Sexton. And Kawi. Clown show

RJ is a big bike complainer too. FC, first years on Husky,
I couldn't imagine being 26yrs old and not cutting the cord with your Dad. Chase is grown man FFS. At least, get it back to a normal father/son relationship
Called it the day I heard it.
I think that the 'successful' moto dad/son dynamic is a lot stranger than what most of us went through. And when I say successful, I am talking about the rider making a factory team, not the relationship between the dad and the son. They spend a lot of time together during the years that a lot of us were gaining our independence, rebelling (even if only a little bit), and generally learning to be our own person. These racer kids don't usually have that same situation, and they are over-reliant (emotionally) on their parents compared to a lot of us, I think.
My first job was working for my dad, but he wasn't out in the field taking times of my progress. I was just part of a crew of people, and during the work day he wasn't my dad for most practical purposes. Again, these riders don't quite get that sort of thing. They are the main focus, everything is about their performance, and even the slightest criticism can come across as not being good enough and that can create a really strong co-dependency.
I don't know if that is the case with the Sextons, but it wouldn't surprise me. Some riders and parents get through that a lot easier than others. Some of them end up with wedges that last for years, or even decades.
If I was Yamaha, I wouldn’t want Chase on my bike.
He did complain about the Honda, before leaving in what has been spoken about a strained manner.
He complained about the KTM. Needed different forks, made it publicly known he’d purchased his own KYB practice suspension.
Has done nothing but complain about the Kawasaki and causes a scene in the public eye.
Nah… you may have talent, but you’re hard work and a liability. Yamaha have what they need in Deegan. Chase is a risk.
Remember the last time someone from Kawi did speak? Probably best they stay quiet 😂
After Weimer, Tomac, & Prado not having exactly a love fest with the Kawie or the team...I wondered why the absolute hell did Sexton think it would be different for him? He hasn't gotten it right yet. When a team and virtually every rider that's sat their butts on their bike have had a negative experience...you have to wonder.
I'm almost sure Sexton signed before outdoors so he hasn't witnessed the Prado fiasko yet and he probably had to hate the KTM so much that he thought it could only get better. The amount of money he got offered from Kawi probably didn't hurt either lol
Possibility that Kawi signed him on a bonus type contract and Chase now knows he cannot execute the performance to make any money.
They did not.
“Has done nothing but complained about the kawi.”
I don’t think this is an accurate statement, In one post race with Lewis he said “ this is the most uncomfortable I’ve ever been.” Other than that, when asked about the bike he has says, “I’ve just decided to work on making myself better.” I wouldn’t call that complaining, unless I missed something.
And he didn’t go on Gypsy Tales and say how much better the Kaw was than his KTM….and then later go and purposely try not to qualify…..
not matter what bike Chase rides, he will find a way to lose the front end - probably while attempting to leave the pits.....
Pit Row
Nope. Chase hasn’t been on gypsy tales since before all this started. The qual. thing and gypsy statement your thinking of were both Jorge.
He’s going to Ducati anyway from the sounds of it.
I was talking about George not Chase…I was agreeing with you.
Or enter….
If Kawasaki hadn't had the "Prado case" last year, they would probably called it with Sexton. Now they don't because they want to show the world they can handle problems but it seems very obvious that Sexton is trying to find ways to force Kawasaki' hand to fire him. Ghost riding his bike under a tent with Kawi-personnel, now liking everybody who replies on his Instagram with: "You need to leave Kawi".
@Renner153 probably knows this one better, but how much of a communication line is there between ICEONE and Kawasaki USA? Do they use the same or different ECU's? Is there a possibility that they use Febvre his set-up as base? Is it a possibility that they bring in someone like Pourcel to set-up Chase his bike?
Haha. Gotcha. I misunderstood.
Did Chase actually like comments on his own posts telling him to leave Kawasaki?
Yes.

Simmer down John
Idk what fucking his dad off means, but it couldn’t hurt at this point…
I actually don’t know how much communications they have. But I can’t imagine even if they did, what it would benefit. I personally don’t believe the bikes are that similar between the two. It sounds to me that kawi USA really doesn’t want to use production stuff even tho it’s better than the works stuff. Don’t forget, chase can only choose from the parts he’s been given to try. He’s having someone else do the testing telling kawi these two parts are better than these two. And the two “worse” parts never make it to chase.
