Bubba has shown signs of mental weakness; when things go badly for him, he pulls off and makes excuses rather than gutting it out and earning some points. He probably threw away any shot at the championship this year by failing to soldier around at Hangtown in moto 2. That was a disastrous mistake. But now he can do what he likes: go all out for meaningless wins and brag about how fast he is, while somebody else plays it smart and wins the title. With a 28-point lead now, RC could let JBS win 9 times, and as long as Ricky comes in second, he still wins the title.
Bubba on a 450?

outdoors...RC doesn't know a protect mode, its all out baby! He is a treat to see running outdoors.
I can think of several supremely naturally talented riders that had technique over everybody, but mentally blipped themselves right off of the radar screen...Lechien, Reynard and yes, Windham will probably be added to that list someday. Hate to say it, but if JS keeps pulling off and not gutting it out (which can become habitual), he stands to hold the coveted title of most talented also-ran ever.

this months transworld mx shows the 06 bikes from the big 4... The editor of twmx did a japan trip and they run prototype bikes there, like a honda 450 with twin exaust! should make while borthers happy when those come out, you guys will be spending $1300 on double exaust cans next year... the 06 kx450f has a twin spar aluminum, just like honda and suzuki... The 06 kawi frame is also designed exclusivly by kawasaki and not the joint effort of suzuki and kawasaki like the 250f which is still going be the exact same bike as the kawi...

Those twin exhaust are unlikely to see production...They were put on there as a test because of the strict noise regulations in Japan...If it were going to be a standard item we probably would've seen it on the 450 as well which is already announced and no twin exhaust.
