Hey Guys , I was just reading Cycle News on line and they say Bubba is soon to sign with Red Bull KTM ! And Ricky Carmichael signed with Suzuki !! The 250 show should be a show next year!

If KTM signed Stewart it is the coup of the century in my opinion.  He is the real deal a long term winner unlike the many 1-3 year flavors of the moment.  He has the talent to do it long as McGrath did.  He can win long after people are saying Ricky Who?

Don't everybody get your hopes up. This is what is known as silly season in the motocross world, and there are lots of rumors out there floating around. The Carmichael thing was totally off the wall, and I didn't hear a whisper about it before it was announced, so anything can happen. The other rumors that have been floated, have Chad Reed going to Honda and James to Yamaha.

I have known James since he rode 60's, and he would truly be an asset to KTM. I'm afraid though, that KTM doesn't have "the system" to "get" him for their team. The base machine isn't the problem, but I don't think that they have all the "bells and whistles" that a rider of James' caliber needs to have a successful career.

Don't get me wrong: I'd love to see James on a KTM, but I just don't see it happening. I have been wrong before, though.

GENTLEMAN.check the date.
Its APRIL.
Facts are:SUZUKI and KAWASAKI are splitting again.
Suzuki needs and will fight for the best possible riders and Carmikel is the target.BUBBA,s contract runs out in MAY and his contract says""NO contact and deals with other companies before MAY.
NOT KTM but REDBULL would money wise to be able to make Bubba the offer of the century,but there is a lot more then money to think about.If Bubba wants to wear his sponsors clothes and helmets and whatever and Kawa will not go for it,Bubba may quit comes MAY.
Thats what took McGrath away from HONDA.So I guess we have to wait a bit longer to see whats happening.It will be a exciting season for sure.
