Look like Stewart is riding a KTM for 2012!!!

if he gets back on a yamaha..i will be very dissappointed....i really think that bike hurt his results

Really?

I think JS7 sort of hurt JS7's results. Unless he couldn't get the bike dialed in to the point where he was uncomfortable on it, but he did show some wicked speed on it this year without any real mechanical failures IIRC. Unlike Dungey's Suzuki this past outdoor season. :rolleyes:

Reed did say he is desperately looking for sponsors, as he has little motivation to continue to foot the bill out of his own bank account for anything long term. Could you imagine?:eek2:

Yeah he wrecked a lot but I think the bike had a lot to do with it. I mean pretty much everyone that has been on the new Yamaha hates it. I've heard it's just really stiff and "rigid". The fact that he showed "wicked speed" doesn't really say anything. Stewart would be fast if you put him out there on a street bike lol. It just really doesn't matter what he's on. If he is on a different bike this year and does just as bad, I'll eat a nice big crow at the end of the season. But I'm willing to bet his results will be a lot better on a different bike.

Why? I'm pretty sure he was just agreeing with me. I think so anyway. There's no denying he's the fastest on 2 wheels period if he doesn't lay it down.

According to Chris Borich (i would think he would know since he is also facotry suzuki) Stewart is going yellow!

I feel bad for Malcolm... Even on an ATV forum, every conversation about him ends with a discussion about his brother haha.
I think the KTM will hold him back though. Hopefully he does well this season and can get a better ride next time.
My guess is James will be on a suzuki. Anything will be better than his Yamaha though. I don't know if it was the stiffness or the geometry but getting the suspension dialed in seemed to be the problem with those bikes. Which probably helped increase his crash rate too lol.

Borich isn't factory Suzuki.. and one thing has nothing to do with the other.

As motofreak said, its pathetic every thread about SX or MX ends up an argument about Bubba.

BTW, pics of Alessi and Dungey's bikes have already been released...

Yes, I was agreeing with you.

I was just saying that I think Jame's all or nothing style kind of bit him this past year, not so much his bike. And this thread was off Malcom and on to James by the second post.

That being said, I look forward to seeing Malcom on the KTM. He had a great 2011 season and it will be great to see what he can do come January!

I would not have even looked at this thread if I thought it was concerning Malcolm.

"As motofreak said, its pathetic every thread about SX or MX ends up an argument about Bubba."

How is it pathetic that this thread ends up talking about Bubba when you consider the title?
