Kawasaki had bad blood with KTM over Eli's SX championship being "robbed" by Dungey and Musquin even before KTM signed Prado, I can imagine Kawasaki will be super pissed if KTM signs Chase now as well....
People who keep saying this, please tell me the last time we didn't find about a signing until the official announcement? Has this ever happened? This is no different than those who were indignant that even talking about this was dumb because he had a 3 year contract. You are technically right, we don't know, contracts, etc etc etc..... but come on, that's never been how any of this works so I don't get why some are clinging to it so much right now, especially on a message board that exists for these types of discussions.
If he hasn't been cleared to ride, then the timing on the signing is not the problem, it's the inability to ride that should be the story. He could sign something the day he's cleared to ride and be on stock bike on turn track that afternoon. The lack of sense of urgency here tells me he hasn't been cleared to ride.

I think because the "insiders" haven't broken anything yet on the Chase situation ahead of the press releases.
If they were the true source of knowledge in all this, wouldn't we at least know if he's riding yet?
Call me crazy but I'm in the camp waiting for the PR to drop.
A buddy of mine mentioned on Monsters website he is no longer mentioned as an athlete….. take that for what it is.
Matthes said on the review pod for the final round of SMX end of September that sexton and kawasaki had agreed to terms on separation.
Science always wins… 😂
Not on monsters website any more so Redbull ktm it is?
Do we know he was on there before? People were also digging around Red Bull’s website when Mirtle was trying smear Jett and were freaking out when he wasn’t on there, but it just turned out the website hadn’t been updated in forever.
I'd rather watch paint dry than talk about Chase Sexton. It's like Groundhog Day every year.
they were saying this on Track Talkers, that he’s not on there, but they never knew if he was to begin with. They said Marchbanks isnt but Mcadoo still is and hes not monster anymore so they deemed the whole not being on the website as pretty much irrelevant. 6:30-9:47
Just heard Chase is going to sign with Hodaka and ride the new super duper rat. I live next to to RD and Roger said Chase liked the KTM but wanted to go with the chrome tank so he can check his hair before a moto. Heard their going to run side by side wombat motors and they hope the additional weight up front will cure the drifting front end problem
They’re professional racers, gear is a significant chunk of their income. Why would it not be influential?
Just checking in to see if anyone's mentioned that Chase isn't on monster's website anymore
Agreed . I like Chase but couldn't care less who he rides for
Just heard from a buddy that he heard from someone’s buddy that he’s not on Monsters website anymore.
- Doesn't care who Chase rides for
- Opens and reads thread about Chase announcing who he's riding for

How does every one know that Kawasaki did not kick him to the curb and he don't have anything to ride?
Respect to ML, but he only knows what they're choosing to tell him.
That's not a slight, ML. Appreciate what you do.
I’d rather see Chase on Suzuki than KTM.
I heard from the first buddy that he's still with monster but he's wearing his Halloween trick or treat Jason mask and is on the down low.... Eating candy & stuff. He was gonna post a "Second best off season ever!" photo but his PR / man 'friend' talked him off that ledge in the nick of time... It's approaching "The Days of Our Lives" on here.
Days of our Lives........
Props to Chase and his Team for keeping this air tight into November.
Lol I don't know shit. I am just enjoying it all
Chase should’ve showed up at the final SMX round to claim Deegan‘s bike. I would’ve paid to see the look on Cotter’s face.
It won't be a yellow bike.
Orange or red.
this rules out yellow
its back to redbull ktm for chase
Not to mention not-breaking the news in fear of being black-balled in future.
Take everything with a pinch of salt.
