For some reason that body doesn't even look like Kenny. The stance and body looks like reed way more then kr. Is roczen even that tall?

As I mentioned in another thread, we got a polite phone call asking that it be removed.

We try not to cost people money. That's a fair request.

Ah, so you're saying it's Reed on a Honda in Roczen gear. That makes sense. Laughing

It's clearly one of Roczen's friends who is wearing Kenny's gear. Happens all the time. Just ask Justin Barcia.

Anyone who didn't know Kenny was moving to Honda was clearly out of touch with reality.

I don't disagree that it's a fair request. But in reality isn't the damage already done? We all know the internet cant be erased and that photo is probably on endless social media accounts. Shared and reshared. I get that you're doing your part to be respectful of the request as given to you, but do they have a bigger plan for damage control?

That's a 1969 CB750 Honda. It's known as a sandcast & is worth a ton. I'd take the bike & give the chick to Jeff! LaughingLaughing

Maybe I'm confused but how exactly does that picture cost anyone any money? It's well known that Kenny is going to Honda...

Saving Kenny money for breach of contract? Saving Suzuki money because of all the bikes they'll sell between now and October first because people still believe that because Kenny is there? Seems kind of overboard to me, just a picture to confirm what everyone already knows.

Rider's contracts state they can't ride another manufacturer's bike during their contract with said team, there are applicable penalties for this...

That's what I said...why knowingly breach your contract? If it was to risky to be publicized then why risk it. They HAD TO KNOW that someone would get a picture!

The only reason Honda would put a rider in gear with a name and number on a bike with team graphics and numbers is so they could do a photo shoot for the announcement. There's no testing going on here.

That's not Kenny, but I can take a pretty good guess as to who it is.
