Who started the ‘Chase to KTM’ rumour?

Every single media source since the middle of last year

What, they ALL started it? 
 

All of them?

All at once? All at the same time??

If you don’t know, it’s ok just to say “I don’t know”. 
 

send me a link to the FIRST.

You obviously didnt read my question- you were too fast to jump in with a smart-dick response and didnt even read what I asked.
So Just answer the question- WHO was the first to report it?

If you dont know, thats ok. Just keep your smart-dick responses to yourself.

And I suspect you dont know who said it first... which makes you just as out of touch with the sport as me..

Agreed.

I have two changes to your list:

Can Suzuki pick up another legit 450 rider and does Tomac really retire? 

Does Honda HRC do a two contract with Austin Forkner or Jo Shimoda for the 250 class if they bump Hunter to 450 class?

If I am Yamaha pending on what Eli does I would be throwing the book at Chase and feel he could do some real damage on the Yamaha. With ktm I am still not sold on the whoops ordeal as I still see moments of the best whoops riders(Craig,Malcolm) who do not look near as good in them. I also think Webbs last real shot at a title will be this yea but I have been wrong before

I love betting against Webb and ate crow for years. No more. Webb just needs to feel a little fucked to prove people wrong. I hope he tells KTM to kick rocks 🪨

I'd really like to see Webb go back to Star Yamaha. With the new bike, I think he's do some serious damage. 

I'd like to see Tomac do another year on Star as well...although I'm not sure they could afford a Tomac/Webb package.

Sexton might find the "key" to being more consistent under pressure with KTM & Aldon.

Plessinger might also rise to his real potential on the Honda team. This year has already been a sort of "breakout" for him...

As long as Honda doesn't give a shit about rider input, they will lose. In all their pro racing the only rider they seem to listen to is Toni Bou.

As much as Vohland seems like a good kid, he will be lucky to have a factory ride next year.

 

I really thought he would improve quicker. 

He’s a teenager, just remind me which experienced vets have done in SX on a ktm 250 that is so much better than him! 
 

not forgetting he has been at this on his own, a 1 man band on a yet to be proven platform against teams 5 riders strong with over 4 decades of research! 
 

I mean mcelrath left the brand for a one year star deal, Justin hill did what? And Daxton Bennick was quick to exit! 
 

But yeah let’s say the young American (who I have never seen blaming the bike on results) doesn’t deserve a factory ride!!

Long live Moto

Vialle has been doing just as well if not better, and he only has a few months of SX experience. 

Vet. Hampshire has been doing better than him. 

Edit: I'm not saying he doesn't deserve a factory ride. Maybe just not under the KTM Group's banner team. Perhaps move him over to GasGas or Husky.

So 8th in East is better than 8th in west? And the years of knowledge Tom has been given as a factory understudy that Max hasn’t can’t be taken into consideration? You fuckin idiots are doing to Max what you did to Zac when he got written off!  
 

Infact if his Dad reads this Forum, Tallon do the right thing come to Europe like you did! 
 

additionally, if Deegan or Hymas lead as many laps as Max did his 1st outdoor season, Call me !

Vialle is on a totally different bike than what he was running in the GPs. Had little to no SX experience before crossing the pond, meanwhile Vohland has been riding SX for years. 

Vialle 67pts. 

Vohland 52pts. 

So, taking years of SX experience vs little to no experience should not be taken in consideration? 

FYI, I didn't write him off. 

So don't get your panties in a bunch over dirt bike riders.
