Just tweeted a pic of a Yamaha with #15 on. Is he messing around or not?

He's not as good as Chad Reed at Tweeter Fishing. He over does it.

he's not even riding, why would he have a bike all set? i don't think he's going to be on a 450 next year.

Keeping every one guessing for sure. My guess is the KTM one was true. But, being under contract, he's probably prohibited from letting the cat out of the bag. So, now it's just a bunch of deflection to derail everyone & keep them guessing.

Guys, think about how tough a decision this has got to be for him. Lots of amazing possibilities:

a. stay at PC
b. JGR 450
c. KTM 450
d. Team TwoTwo (if they indeed are looking and have cash)
e. H&H 450
f. JWR 450

This is amazing. He is going to be good but if he waits a year, Baggett, Tomac and others will compete for rides too.

My guess is that he wanted team Kawi but they are full, Weimer is in his spot and deserves that ride. Probably next year Weimer gets clipped and Baggett takes that spot.

I would like to see him with Reed but KTM is looking good right now.

Another thing is Wilson can't even test ride these bikes right now.

Payton is probably giving him a deadline and some pressure so he can at least go searching for a quality replacement.

Doesn't Yamaha recognize the bad publicity they are getting and put a little more effort into testing for this bike?

They must be strapped for cash. Honda had issues with their last 450 and tested with McGrath like crazy to get the race bike good. Yamaha it seems has done nothing.

A redesign back to the 2009 model with BNG sounds like a plan to me.

That bike is the wrong color. I think if he doesn't stay at PC you will see him on a red bike riding for two two.
