Is it possible that RCH becomes a HRC backed team and Roczen is really going no where different, other than manufacturer brand?

According to Matthes the OEMs don't really want Satellite Teams winning Championships.

My guess is Honda paid the big bucks and want a Championship under their own tent.

That irony when Suzukis "satellite" team wins the title and apart from that they dont have another guy in the top 10 (they're lucky to have Strijbos in 10th in the GPs but Simpson will put him back if he's not careful).

Last year outdoors Suzuki had more guys in the top ten 450s than any other mfg. Would have been the same this year with Tickle and Baggett if not for injuries. Suzuki isn't doing nearly as bad as everybody wants to perceive.

Yeah they just have had some pretty shitty luck this year. Baggett and Tickle could have easily been top5 in points. Let's not talk about Stew

They want to be identified as two different brands, i will treat them as such. Wink They have twice the riders as Suzuki if you combine all the KTM and Husky teams also.

It's actually quite accurate. I know you are a KTM fanboy so it's ok.

If they actually bring that look, it will take it back to the glory days in the mid-80's IMO. Love the red/blue!

That looks photoshopped. Can't tell if they are Yosh cans on the ohter side of the # plate. Can't remember the last time HRC didn't run their red anodized triple clamps. I'm curious to see if KR will be running KYB's or Showas on the new 17 model.

I highly doubt RCH (if it is around in 2017) would run Hondas imho

Agree. I think RC is still bitter with Honda after they let him go in the 04 season & going 24-0 on the outdoors that year. RC is a competitor & I believe he will find a way to keep the RCH team going in 17.

HRC Japan is running the show now. I thing the Red Bull will only be on Kenny and not the bike. Maybe Kenny will use the stock triple clamps.

Maybe Roczen isn't going to Honda at all. It's never comfirmed by anybody. I think he sticks with RCH and Suzuki. And RCH would become the new factory Suzuki team. Wink

For the last 20 years, Honda hasn't really wanted Honda winning any championships either.

You get the hint that some people are so daft they can't take one.

p.s. if his bike looks like that I'll pay Doc Bodnar to run over it in the mule.
