He revs the shit out of a 450. How is revving the shit out of a 350 make you a faster rider? I agree, he'll always ride 450.

Really he switched once the 450 became competitive. To that point he felt the 450 was not as good as the 350.

The pig has been holding him back in Supercross. Barcia will impress on the new bike and he'll be flicking that thing in everyone's face when he gets in the groove. Can't wait to see his come back on the Gas Gas.
I’d love to agree, I want to see him do well but I just don’t think he’s got anything for AC and CS once they get some confidence in SX. We will see. Maybe the first round will be a mudder 😆

It definitely needs the black rims to look better, but it is a good looking bike.

Black rims are so overplayed. Love seeing something different.

Well, at least it doesn't have training wheels.

I guess that since there is no news that Barcia's Yamaha contract must be thru the end of October.

I've loved seeing Justin on Yamaha for these last few years. The combo of his heavy throttle hand and the YZ's meaty power have been entertaining. I'm really interested to see these last couple years of his career riding for the juggernaut that is KTM, Husky and now Gas Gas. I hope he comes out in SX as a serious factor.

Is this the first time Barcia will be on a KTM product, even from his Am career?

I also wonder if he will be able to train at Baker's place now?

Aldon straightened out Osbourne pretty good, maybe he can do the same with Barcia if he gets the chance.

Imagine him winning A1 - uhhh the season opener - (Texas 1? T1?) 3 times in a row.

Anyone else think his A-stars post about the "Frog" gear was oddly timed? Lots of blue in it.

I thought it was a big thank you and now we’ll hear about 2021 news soon.

Seemed clear to me Barcia was thanking Alpinestars for their support since 2013.

Was listening to Pulp Show from Monday and heard Steve mention that Barcia's first ride on the bike didn't go well as he had a transmission problem or blew it up. Hope they get that taken care of ASAP.

Lol! They are going to have to reinforce some things in the engine. Justin could have a secondary career as a durability tester Wink

Seriously looking for some video of Barcia on the red machine... Wondering how close he will look to the Honda days? Just being on red, not gear, etc.

I believe he has said recently that he has no interest in racing the GPs.

Yes, in the same way Mookie signing with Yamaha is a precursor to a future All Japan Nationals ride
