“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.

I was talking about George not Chase…I was agreeing with you.

I feel like Chase on Suzuki would probably be the best option for him. The platform doesn't change, so assuming he can find a setting he likes, he can just copy paste each year and take the bike out of the equation. A Chase that's focused solely on racing and not the bike would be amazing for these title fights.

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?

Did Chase actually like comments on his own posts telling him to leave Kawasaki?

1000% agree that Sexton is the problem absolutely no doubt, just saying it has happened in the past and gave some recent examples.

Sexton needs to get his shit together and start by fucking his dad off and then get a mental coach and trainer.

Who is Sexton's trainer?

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.

There's some parts that kawi have that would have helped prado and im sure chase and marchbanks but they cant be used here. Febrev and katsuya have said as much as well.

Im curious how much if any of the issues they've had the 27 fixes or allows them to run those gp parts.

Either it was going to be good or be nasty.

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.

Ryan Villopoto won four 450 SX and two 450 MX titles with them at the same time Weimer was there...and Eli won muliple MX and one SX while there...so the team can't be that bad...

Sexton is very immature. He needs to get rid of his dad and take a serious look at himself.

I don't think he's slow. I just think Jett, Hunter and Deegs have taken their riding to another level he can't match, and it's in his head. So he blame's the bike.

He needs to take a good look in the mirror and get a good coach.

He was hanging with Hunter and Jett last summer and winning races, now he’s like a 7th place guy. Is he a head case? Yes. Do I also think there are some serious flaws with either the bike or leadership at Kawi? Also yes.

Damn Sexton is a meme currently. Insta mx content literaly flooded with content creators making fun of him. Tucking the front end became "to sexton". I dunno.. I wonder how he himself feels about that. Does he think its funny? Does he care? Does it make him feel angry and/or sad? He comes across as pretty vain (dunno if its the right translation, I mean the german word "eitel"), so I think he isnt careless on what goes around about him in social media. Slowly but surely I think it goes a bit too far at this point. Although im one of em making fun of him lol
