What potential does he have in the US in the 450 class? Not sure why but I've found myself wanting him to do well. Just seems like a good kid from the vids and interviews with him.

Alot...he's a big dude and he was on a 250F last year i think right??

If you weigh over 160 lbs and you're on a little bike you're not going to do well..sorry.

Yeah..Milsaps won the 125 East on a crf250 but i think they put him on a 450 outdoors that year...


That being said, being small on a 450 isnt a bad thing as long as you're strong enough to hold on to it...RC, RV and Bubba aren't exactly giants and they dominate!

I have no idea why he's been linked to the 350 for so long... was in Aus here too... He's got great bike skills and is a big guy, that's a 450 rider if you ever heard of it.... I don't get it...

I think he has done well for being pro for 1-2 years.

He wants to. Its just a matter of getting a ride. If he rides a 450 next year, I reckon he will do well.
