Is the Monster Energy Star Yamaha Racing team going back to an all-blue scheme for 2023? Well, sorta. The pro team looks to still be rocking the all black plastic look but the amateur team has gone the opposite route. Check out the sneak peek that Brent Duffe posted of Deegan's amateur bike for the first half of 2023. Let's get your opinion as well by voting below.

Factory bikes typically look good regardless of color. That said. Blue

Do they get more money from Monster for having black plastic? That’s the only way I could justify it, because the black looks terrible.. imo…

Wonder how much they’d get if they went green 🫢.. probably not as much as they’d lose from yami

10th in moto two at Fox Raceway 2, 13th overall. They added a new am rule two or three years ago where amateurs can do a limited number of nationals and still race amateur A the following year. I don't know if we'll actually see him stay amateur after Futures is done or not. I think he may end up racing all of the Nationals in 2023. Hymas and Ryder D also did select nationals and are racing Futures before going pro full-time.

He has to get max 40 points at amateurs to get pointed out but he didn’t reach that so if he wanted he could race all next year, though I think he’ll just do mini o’s then go full pro

He's going to have to run 238 this year when he does Nationals, so maybe they want to keep a consistent look on the bike. He'll have to run whatever he earns for 2024 anyhow, so he's not going to be able to keep running 38 for much longer anyhow.
