I was really hoping that Dungey would be leaving KTM after his contract was up. I just don't see him jiving with the KTM, the way Kenny does.

Thanks for the info...bro.

I don't think either one has jived with the KTM. Dungey looks horrible on it but is still top 5, and Kroc is doing even better on a bike he doesn't really like. I just wish RD would go back to yellow too. It's his roots, and his corner speed and whoop skills were way better. I'm totally stoked for Kroc to ride yellow again. That bike is badass!!!!!

believe a couple weeks ago on pulpmx, Matthes had said Dungey has already resigned with KTM. They just havent put out an official ptess release yet.

If RCH had the $$ to potentially draw Reed this past contract sea season...they've got it to draw Roczen. That, plus the promise of a full factory bike might mahe him & RCH a perfect fit.

A properly placed hyphen would make a big difference in that sentence.

Word is that Suzuki has an all new bike coming for 2015. What if they goof it up the way Yamaha did in 2010 and Honda in 2013 where the top pro level riders can't seem to figure out how to make the bike work for them?
If a company ever needed to just add "BNG" to a new model, it would be Suzuki (IMO).

However, Suzuki has been pretty good with copying just the right things from other manufacturers in the past, so maybe it'll get even better!

One has to think Kenny has already ridden the 2015 RMZ. A rider of his caliber rarely signs a contract with a manufacturer without riding the next year model bike first.

I could be wrong though, and have been before.

Roczen to RCH in '15, and Dungey to replace Stewart at Yosh in '16. AC46 top dog at Monster Kaw in. '16 replacing RV, Canard staying at Honda and finally catching a break with some good fortune. Barcia heads up JGR Yamaha along with Brayton. Wilson to Two Two next year and Millsaps to head up the new Husky team. Hell, everyone else is throwing out their predictions, so I may as well too. There, I said it. That's right you heard me.

'09 wouldn't be legal. Pretty sure that the '10 is the oldest homologated models that are legal for '14.

I'm not confirming or denying anything, but nothing can be said "officially" until their current contract term ends, so don't get your hopes up for proof. It will be a while.

Why do you people care so much about what bike he rides? As long as he rides and keeps things exciting, I couln't care less abou which colour he's on.
