Hot Rumor of the Day: Windham on a thumper?

[MRKRacing125]

This was posted on racerxill.com's website. I wonder how much of this is fact!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The latest rumor making waves out in SoCal this week has sidelined superstar Kevin Windham possibly coming back to supercross as soon as Anaheim, and doing it on the Honda CRF450R that Team Honda had slotted for Nathan Ramsey! (Coincidentally, Ramsey is out for a few months with a broken femur, the same injury Windham suffered last spring.) There have been a few rumors about White Brothers Honda rider Paul Carpenter getting a shot at Ramsey's bike while Nate Dawg heals, but the Windham one is new to us. K-Dub is no longer with Team Suzuki, but he left Honda to go there, which complicates this rumor further. We'll keep you posted....

I hope he can get something together and be competitive while he's at it. I'd hate to see him fade away with as much talent he has.

It this pans out, hopefully Honda doesn't put much pressure on Kevin. This would be a big boost to his moral and we'd get to see another top notch rider on the circuit. If Kevin can get comfortable and get in a groove... Lookout!! :yeehaw:

Not to change the subject, but what happened to Ramsey? Hate to hear that about him. He's one of my favorite riders, even if he is on a, cough, Honda!

Kevin is one of the coolest pro in racing at Atlanta the entire time the pits was open he was out talking to his fans. He could ride anything out there it makes no difference to me iam a big fan!

:think: I thought he'd burned the Honda bridge . . .

Whatever it takes. I bet he wins practice. :silly:

I dont know anything about contracts or the like, but he has had a red thumper in his possession for a little while now.

goo luck to K-dub. he was the lst person to take it to RC ourdoors and went 1.1! i am sure he can do the same outdoors on the cr450f, until team orders come into play i suppose. oh, wait this isnt formula 1 is it, the red thing confused me!

Ahh... don't get too big of a head, mx547! K-Dub REALLY burned a bridge with Yamaha... :confused:

What happened to K-Dub and Yamaha?

 

[Camstyn]

If I recall correctly, he signed a letter of intent with Yamaha to renew his contract.. At the last minute he signed up with Team Honda instead, leaving Yamaha with an empty spot on the semi. Yamaha tried to sue him, I'm not sure if they succeeded.

I was there in washougal when he kicked carmichaels ass some great motocross I hope he does it again before he retires.
