Chase Sexton to Team Tedder if he can get out of his Kawasaki deal? It's not the Yamaha he wants, but it is going to be a factory supported husky team. He'll get a good base bike package, the freedom to sort of try whatever he wants to get himself "comfortable", while also keeping his gear and energy drink deal. Being on a satellite team with factory support was just proven to have worked this year in Supercross with Ken Roczen winning the title. So maybe it'll work for Chase?

Too many puffs, not enough passes man... no worry. Happens to the bast of us sometimes.
I’m more curious about Club? Obviously Star is the best choice but maybe club could be a good fit, he won’t be taking much of a salary first year, so club could probably fit him in. He will have to put his money where his mouth is, like Prado.
Club seems viable.
He hates the KTM's horrible bike, that's why he left KTM at the time he left he wasn't on speaking terms with anyone on the team the bike was so bad, why would he go back?

Chase to the 2027 KX450SR...
Tedder makes about as much sense as any. Any bike he chooses, including the new ‘27 Kawi, is a crapshoot.
The 2027 Suzuki is a known quality!
Is that the bike he won a championship and went 40th to 1st on?
It's a no risk deal for any team.
He gets on the bike and doesn't produce results "Well you know how Chase is difficult..."
He gets on the bike and wins "See Chase just needed the right team".
True, outside of fixed costs. It seems like most teams are tightening their belts, so even if you pay him a low salary($500K) you're still looking at a million or so for the season(salary, mechanic, parts costs etc) before paying any bonuses.
I think he'll stay on the Kawi, but who knows. At this point, I think a GP team is just as likely as a different team in the US.
