Kenny thought about trying to ride a RM 250 2 stroke at the Last Round of the Outdoors in 2016 but the AMA shot him down over Homogenization rules. For sure Kenny riding a 2 stroke would NOT have Been in the "Best Interest of the Sport."

That SUCKS ASS!
You're a little late to the party on this one.
The Shop
I was told the bike was never close to being ready.
We know
Honda signed Roczen for big money to try and re-capture the glory days of Honda that McGrath was part of when he won four supercross titles in the span from 93-96 and when McGrath also won the 250 Outdoor title in 1995.
On a 2 Stroke.
No matter how you feel about young Mr. Roczen at least he is doing something with 2 strokes !
[b]homogenization i.e[/b]
ho·mo·ge·ne·ous
adjective.
1. Consisting of parts that are the same; uniform in structure or composition:
2. Of the same or similar nature or kind:
homologate
verb (used with object), homologated, homologating.
1. to approve; confirm or ratify.
Dungey could possibly do it at KTM if he wrapped up a championship early but he isn't that outgoing so that isn't going to happen either.
The dictionary is wrong too http://www.dictionary.com/browse/homogenization
And what hell is wrong with a little drumming up attention and drama on social media ?

Pets
Roczen used to own an Olde English Bulldogge named Rocky, but doesn’t have any pets at the moment, although that could change soon.
“Since Rocky moved back to Germany to live with Papa I haven’t got a new pet here in the United States. Traveling is so hard that there just isn’t any time yet for a pet. Soon though! Maybe in the next year.
"I’m leaning toward a chocolate lab because he will be able to travel. Not all airlines will allow you to travel with a bulldog anymore so I have to find a new breed. Or a German Shepherd. Regardless, he will be all over Instagram once he makes his debut! He probably won’t have his own Instagram account though!”

In addition to riding one of the best motocross bikes in the world, Roczen also rides in style when he’s being transported by four wheels. One look at his vehicle list is proof of that!

This is no normal factory machine. Roczen’s smooth Euro style allows him to run soft suspension with an engine that is easy to ride. MXA said it[b] reminded them of a Vet rider’s bike setup[/b]
.
Kenny likes the brunt of his power delivery from bottom to mid. He [b]rides wide open only about 2 percent of the time.[/b]
[b]MXA:[/b] WE RIDE KEN ROCZEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP-WINNING SUZUKI RM-Z450

"Ken Roczen learned to be an efficient rider in Europe. The MXGP tracks he grew up on are much rougher and are ill maintained compared to the AMA National tracks. This taught Ken to carry his momentum on the track, with his agile right hand to meter the throttle. With a style that separates him from his American counterparts, Kenny has used this European grace to his advantage, and with his unique style of riding comes an unconventional bike setup—a setup that gives him an edge over the competition."
