Not to bad as far as I am concerned
Fact is Kawasaki has sponsored most of the riders winning today in the 250cc class before they became 250cc riders and you will probably see Bubba make a switch when becomes a 250 rider for a while.
You dont see any 65 hondas or yamahas dominating any tracks.
You dont see any 85 hondas or yamahas dominating any tracks.
These riders come up through Kawasaki and then leave. More than likely cause of money but the future looks bright for Kawasaki and Suzuki in the 250 class.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but WHO was riding those machines, put Bubba in their class and see if anything other than the green 2 SMOKERS win!!! When is the last time you saw a Suzuki win in the 250cc class???? When is the last time you have seen any other brand win an overall in the 250class in the last 2 years besides Yamaha or Honda in either MX or SX????

I think that if Suzuki want to be competitive in the pro ranks with Yamaha, they'll use a true MX engine out of the RMZ. Yamaha stepped up to the plate big time and offered a champ out of the box. Honda's built a great weekend warrior that will be sure to be the weapon of choice for the masses and win tons of amateur races, but the pros have spoken in GNC and GNCC. Blue is their color.

No, the pros haven't spoken, they haven't been able to get their hands on one and mod it up, give it time and there will be many R's out there. The YFZ has been out for 7 months, the 450R not even a month, not a very fair comparison, huh?
Honda have contingecy money available now. that will definitely help them out. A LOT.
I wonder if the other big three will step up with some cash?

You're right, not really totally fair. but what you're forgetting is that the guys in pro production have the resources through sponsors to try out the 450R very early. Look at Doug Eichner, he already has a pretty strong running Honda, but he sticks out like a sore thumb with all the Yamahas. Yamaha didn't take the ***** right out of their engine. Honda did. Yamaha weren't crazy about sponsoring riders because they knew they wouldn't have to. They clearly have a more competitive platform for most riders.

I didn't want to really count timmy because he's got full factory support, his TRX450R isn't really comparable to everyone else's probably... With HRC breathing on that 450 motor, he's probably got hella power and crazy unobtanium parts.
he's still sucking hine tit... until next race where he'll probably get a podium finish for sure. I mean, he's got a 1 million dollar deal. He's going to f**king give'r now that he got a wake up call!!!
