Its official , RC will be racing the RM250 in the 2005 Supercross series . There is a rumor that Chad Reed may sign with Honda for 2005 . Sounds like Bubba Stewart will sign with KTM . Pretty cool stuff , except Chad Reed leaving Yamaha !

I guess we won't be seeing RC ride the 4 stroke after all:(

I wonder who will be Yamaha's top guy? It is nice seeing them in the winner circle on a regular basis.

Yes it is !!!!! Dis be fo real foo !!!:yesnod
Yep! This is April 2nd. Joke's over.

RC has a hard enough time coming up with fans and not getting booed. I can't imagine this will help his sex appeal.

What would happen if Dale Jr were to drive for Miller Lite instead of Bud?!

It's about the almighty :dollar what can I say except I would do the same thing?!

It will be interesting to see if he can win as much on the Suzuki. If so, then he's the man. Same goes for Rossi on the GP Yamaha. The racing might tighten up. It's really no fun to watch someone totally dominate the competition every weekend.

I think Ricky got booed because he was just plain spanking everybody and making the races boring.
According to the article RC will ride the CRF450 in outdoor motocross for 04 then switch to Sudookie on Nov. 1 and will contest the 05 Supercross on a RM250 . I think you are dead on for why he got booed, its not like he acts like Mat Mladin or something !:lol

Bubba is going to ride Honda that is why ricky left for suzuki. Plus ricky is going to have his own team with suzuki. He should do good. I drive Ezra Lusk's bus and he said ricky is looking reeally good on the Suzuki. He is still riding 4-stroke honda 450 in the nationals. I think Chad will probably stay with Yamaha. Yamaha will be stupid to let him slide although he sucks at outdoors.

So you drive Ezra's bus !? Now that is bad ass ! I kinda think RC will come out with a back against the wall - fight hard attitude this coming 05 Supercross season and maybe win it , I think he will win the outdoor 04 almost for sure ! Bring the bus and the R1 to Road Atlanta for a track day May 22 and hang out with me and some other forum members !!!:riding

Yeah it is a really fun job going to all the races for free but sometimes it sucks being on the road all the time. My friend drives timmy ferrys bus so that is how I got the job. we follow each other so it makes it fun. I pretty much live out of a bag though. The only bad part is they get hurt all the time.
