I guess that depends on whether he's riding it or not. I don't think that's been confirmed.

Who's bike is he riding, Canards? Wouldn't that require some testing to get it dialed in?

I think he will stick with the bike he's comfortable on.

I'm guessin' Hydro-clutch and some suspension (only a "maybe" on the suspension...Chad's bike seems to work jus' fine in the rough)...

Same for K-Dub.

Oh, and, some transmission goodies...

At the end of the day...Honda's bikes are a the lightest; so, I wonder how much Ti and light-weight stuff they might test over this week and next.

He's already been doing pretty well on his bike this year so why change now. I would assume that Honda would just supply him with some extra parts and just be there to support him and help in any way they can over the last 2 races

He won't ride Carnards bike an change things up that much this late in the season. I believe he will have all the factory parts he needs now that Carnard is hurt. He's Honda's only chance at a title this year now. He stated he's headed to Califonia to test this off week. I hope he finds some factory parts to make him more comfortable these last 2 races an gains a little speed that he's looking for. Go REED I hope he can pull it off!

I doubt he does any changes that will affect him being comfortable. IF he does get some help from Honda, I see it being in small things. Hydro clutch, TI stuff, some sort of works stuff. He already has the Honda tranny. Also, some help could come in the form of $.
