2016 SX Discussion

It's not funnier at all Walmart.

I agree, they need more sand and jumps.

Torontos back too

Wait til Minneapolis comes back after our new stadium is finished. Dungey will come home to the greatest atmosphere in the sport for his hometown hero status. Us fans almost blew the roof of the Metrodome when he passed Villopoto in 2013, greatest race i will ever attend, get chills thinking about it.

That's funny, it was vice versa in Seattle when Poto would pass. NW can represent when they come out of the woodwork.

[KTM57]

Most people from Seattle are too busy contemplating suicide to really get involved in cheering for the hometown guy.

The official team roster for the 2016 Monster Energy Kawasaki Motocross team has finally been confirmed. In front of media members on the opening day of the 2015 AIMExpo, it was announced that Eli Tomac will contest the Monster Energy Supercross Series and Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship aboard the all-new 2016 Kawasaki KX450F alongside Wil Hahn.

For Wil Hahn, this is a second chance of sorts with the team because he spent most of the past year on the sidelines with numerous injuries. After winning the East Coast Regional 250 Supercross Championship in 2013, Hahn was bumped to the 450 class and has shown promising speed in the premier division over the last two years. He will be the team’s lone rider at this weekend’s Monster Energy Cup in Las Vegas, Nevada.

News of Eli Tomac’s signing spread much earlier in the year, but this is the first time the 2012 West Coast Regional 250 Supercross/2013 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross 250 Champion and Monster Energy Kawasaki have officially commented on the matter. Tomac’s 2015 season came to a premature end just three rounds into the Nationals when a crash in Colorado injured his shoulders. Still recovering from operations on both shoulders, his debut with the team will likely not come until the 2016 Monster Energy Supercross Series kickoff at Anaheim One.

A press release with images of Tomac in Kawasaki-branded apparel is set to come at 9AM Pacific Time today….

So excited to see Eli run a different helmet then those ugly 6D ones and different gear! The geico team runs some of the weirdest looking stuff IMO. This is going to be exciting!

[TeamHavocRacing]

I'm just excited to see him ride. He could be wearing leotards and a tutu and I wouldn't give a nanofuck.

Lol he is still wearing Alpinestars, just as he did when he was riding for Geico Honda. IMO the Gieco team is pretty sick looking

[KTM57]

You wouldn't think the Geico team has a weird setup if they had some riders who don't have weird riding styles.

[mxsrider96]

That Alias gear almost looks like lines just puked up onto a canvas. I like the colors, but from the back, the design doesn't look great

[Goran267]

IMO the sickest looking 250 teams,

1. TLD KTM
2. Geico Honda
3. Star Racing Yamaha
4. RedBull KTM
5. Pro Circuit (Just because they are always wearing the same gear/helmet.)
6. Rockstar Husqvarna

I beg to differ... Look how big his head looks!

I've been getting used to how the 6D helmets look, to be honest. But like others have mentioned he's still going to be rocking the AStar gear. I'm not a fan of it really, either. But I guess at least there's different looks.

I think the ugliest gear award goes to Barcia. AStars plis 5 million sponsor logos.

[dbaum25moto]

Im sure Barcia didnt pick all that out tho. Im sure he rides what they give him.

How do you guys think the 6d's are ugly? I think they look better than alot of other helmets.
