I know a lot of riders were out, but still I am impressed. I would have never imagined a top 5 season for Blake in his rookie season. Rick Johnson seems to have added a lot to his results.

Can't wait to see how he does outdoors.

Regardless of who was out (got to be in it to win it though) he showed some great speed this year at some races I thought. I'm a fan of Blake but was worried about how he'd do on the 450. Great job Blake and Suzuki.

He suprised a lot of people with his indoors results this year, including me. He rode great, and will be a definate threat for a podium next year, if not a win. All he has to do now is lose the gawdawful helmet and gear kit he's been wearing and all will be cool.

Yep impressive SX season by him for sure. Now i think of it most of the 'rookies' (Seely / Anderson) had pretty impressive years in the 450 class.

I am looking forward allot to see Bagget outdoors on the 450 though. I believe he might be able to get an overal (Budds Creek ?!!!) during the season. Seely & Anderson on the other hand haven't ever really impressed me Outdoors...

Bring on the great outdoors allready Smile

He has always been good when he's on a yellow bike indoors.

Bagget killed this year for his first full go around in the 450's
I think he's gonna shake it up outdoors his RMZ has a lot of good history outdoors so his bike should be pretty damn dialed in
I'd like to see him make a chupa charge in some Motos outdoors no doubt he has the speed.

Guys this is Suzsuki's brake bracket. It's from a 2010 RMZ250.

Gotta agree with you Tyler. He's been very consistent like that Dungy guy, hope he can turn the afterburner's on like he did on the 250 for the outdoors and pull off a few win's.

An impressive rookie 450 season and heading into the outdoors healthy.

He could be factor for sure. If he can still manage his late moto charges through the pack, he'll be exciting to watch.

He will do well outdoors, but top 3 will be hard to reach.

Not near as hard a supercross was for him. He will be in the top 3 more than most think. He is a true threat outdoors.

Don't forget that German kid. But I'm with you buddy. Hope he does well outdoors. Which is his strong suit anyway.

That's Desalle, and probably Roczen when he goes back to racing.

Agreed. His starts were better indoors and I'm sure being 135lbs on a 450 should translate to them being better outdoors as well. The precision of SX as always been his weakness and he's improved drastically there. WFO outdoors on a 450? I woukdnt bet against him. Of course going up against a master of racecraft like the Dunge is no picnic but Blake has a championship through a long outdoor season and knows how to win too

Id love to see Brake kick some ass outdoors. He seems to be a good guy, and I always thought he had a cool riding style outdoors. Plus, I hear he's form Texas.

Yep, He's way better at just letting it rip.

He's the modern day Steve Lamson, has to really work for it indoors, but when the gate drops outdoors... Light the fuse and watch the fireworks go off!

I think Baggett will be a contender outdoors. Easily the best of the rookies. I'm not saying Blake will beat Tomac and Roczen, but the last time he faced them healthy he won a national championship.

I don't get where everyone keeps saying that he was never that good at SX?

He has always been solid at SX on the 250F but his attitude always changed to "happy" when the series went outdoors and he did even better.

He's had a great 450 rookie year in SX and I hope he can be even stronger outdoors too.

I don't think anyone says he's "bad" at SX, but he just looks better outdoors. Anybody that starts wicking it up in the second half of a moto and just picking people off as he has done so many times in the past... badass.

Okay, he made it through SX, fingers crossed he stays healthy for another two weeks so we can really see what he has outdoors. I could definitely see him top-3 for the series overall.

He'll be the Cole Seely of the outdoors like I can see Cole Seely being the Blake Baggett of the indoors (I only talk about this year indoors) if that make any sense.
