What a year. Can’t remember a more emotional SX season, I think the last time I felt like that was Reedy’s comeback win in 2014 on that Kawi. Amazing job by Ken, damn you earned it mate. Legend. And Hunter, is the kind of guy you want your kids to grow up to be.


Got me thinking. Who’s got the knowledge on the (I think) short list of folks who have won a world motocross championship, and a premier class (250 2t/450 4t) AMA SX championship? 


Can’t be too many. Top of my head is Jean Michele Bayle.. any others?

Kenny is in rare air. Congrats champ!

Jean-Michel Bayle is the only other rider to have an AMA SX, World MX, and AMA MX title. But Roczen has also won des Nations and World SX, which makes him the only rider to have won a title in every major MX championship.

Now that is one hell of a resume. King Kenny.

I think the only thing he’s missing is a 250 AMA MX championship. Otherwise he’d be the holy grail!

Oh man reading that was a gut punch! haha 

Considering the fricken hive of angry bees he had to take on the years he was trying to get one!

Edit: not that it really matters but he didn't get both coasts of 250 sx either, 'just' got West

Once you get the 450 AMA MX championship, the 250 MX championship no longer matters.
