Was just going to post it. I think it's hilarious that Yoshimura may be pulling support from under js7 feet. If the rumor is true. Field a 250 factory team and rch becomes the premier 450 suzuki team. Only rch is shipping for different brands.

Poor suzuki

I agree. Performance based is prob his best and last shot.

Interesting to read about the article on JS7 and his contract. I doubt anybody will see him the rest of the summer. Interesting also that someone has not commented on his facebook page right before Lakewood about a change and praying for the outcome. I honestly believe that his mind is not into it anymore. Becoming a new dad has to be playing a major part of all this also.

Anderson is Husky's #1 guy. He will not be leaving anytime soon

Glad to see people coming to reality. I posted exactly this some time ago about js7 and got blasted. Actually said that before last sx season. Vital.........

anderson and pourcel are signed through 2018.

the only thing i can say about rch is 'ouch'. yosh at least has bb4 who can bring them some top 5 finishes but rch better go after savatgy if he is available. if not, bogle, mookie or wilson are probably their best bet.

I think the best option for JMart would be to go to factory Yamaha. with an asterisk. he ride the 250 in supercross and 450 outdoors. heres why:

jmart was fast in sx but very inconsistent, so he needs some more development. I would have him race the 250 west then race a 450 in the east rounds to get some unpressured experience.

the big question is what will happen to Suzuki?

perhaps RCH makes a full on pairing with the factory? or even BTO goes back to suzukis....either way they needs to get their shit together. Suzuki has a good bike but it sounds like their program is back to what they were in the 90's. SHIT

Who would you take? Mookie has the most upside, and bogle has a ton of potential as well. Savagty reminds me of Weimer. Great rider and will be a fantastic 2nd guy on the team.

Id rather see him on a different brand 450
The yamaha 250 is great but the 450 still seems inferior
Honda or ktm would be better imo
Or maybe suzuki because everyone says the corner so great

Are you sure about that? Seems similar to any new model. Now Yamaha at least has a really really good test rider (reedy) to iron out the bugs. I have a feeling that bike is going to be pretty good next year in supercross

Good God. Does MXA even employ a copy editor? That reads like a blog posting from an eighth grader.
I'll admit I think some of the MXA bashing that goes on around here is a little excessive, but you hit the nail on the head and it's well deserved.

"As recent as a year ago, Alex Martin was not on any bodies radar"

Is Alex a form of a tattoo on a satellite? Oh, you meant to say "anybody's" Woohoo

there were a few other things I saw but that was one that really stuck out to me

honestly I am impressed by savatgy this year. if you would have asked me last year I would have agreed with you but he gave webb (who is a big $ signing!) a good run for his money this sx season and joey looks great so far for the outdoors. if he can win the title or finish VERY close to the title winner I'd choose him over mookie and bogle. savagty seems to handle pressure really well, especially when leading a race where mookie just make the wrong decisions at times. they are both great guys but i think savagty stepped it up a lot more than anyone else this year. bogle would be my 3rd choice. he is fast at times but pretty inconsistent i think. that's how i see it, others probably disagree and i m not here to argue about it.

nah it's all stamped. apparently ktm couldn't afford the 2nd one. dungey asked for more money to take piano lessons for his career after moto. trey will be ok, pretty sure aldon baker has the right program ready for him.

X3, that is incredibly bad, there are dozens of errors at first glance, to the point where it's painful to read.

"Stewart and Blake Baggett, have been plagued with injuries. While Blake Baggett’s injuries are identifiable as physical, James Stewart seems to primarily be mental."

Seriously? The writer is stating that Stewart's problems this year "seen to primarily be mental"? WTF? I guess he doesn't remember about the concussion from A1, and his problems since then with injuries. And, while I'm not at all excited that Stewart had a career-worst SX season, and has followed it by an even worse Outdoor performance...I hardly think that his problems have all been mental.

I don't usually bash the guys at MXA, but this is ridiculous...and I'm not even talking about the grammar.

Quite the amount of musical chairs and faffery, should be an interesting off-season for sure.
