been some interesting web chat about this. Seems he kinda hated the KTM a few years ago but the new bike is drastically changed. I wish him the best, really like that guy and thought he was the next big thing.
A few years ago? It was last year he has a contract to ride it and never saw 1 event... Bike must be so much better now that he got dropped for possession of some unknown substance. Later,
I read in testing he was struggling with it. Had rode them before and did not like them. There's an interview with him somewhere before KTM saying he did not like the feel of them personally. - Everyone says the new KTMs are a very different animal. Actually sounds like I might like them more. Stability being much better.
Odd move for sure. I wonder if he realized he only has a couple years left to make money racing bikes? Better to take a ride on a bike you don't like than no ride at all?
Here's another interview and he talks on the past yr and that ktm ghost ride ... And a little on this ride .. http://www.vitalmx.com/photos/featu...Butler-Brothers,38580/Slideshow,0/ML512,13480 I guess that SUZ was the last ride he rode well for an entire season and he was hurt towards the end of it... He beat RD5 that yr for 2nd ... He also said SUZ gave him zero help with his bike that yr ... He mentions that bike here also ...
