Honda has a long history of buying championships and champions in just about all forms of motorcycle racing. This comes as no surprise.

Now if Honda will just put LaRocco on the new CRF450! I think it may prove to be just enough to put him ahead a spot or two.
Yeah, Maybe the 450 would buy LaRocco the starts he needs:scream:

How do you sign a deal to ride next year? Who will RC ride for in the outdoor series??
You cannot race for Kawasaki now and have a signed contract to ride for Honda next year. This information is not consistent and is questionable at best.

In dirt track in the 80s, Honda did that several times, hiring the defending champion so they could showcase the number one plate on their team the following year. When Mike Kidd won the title in '81, they hired him away in '82 and ran advertisements with his number one plate on their motorcycle. They did the same with Ricky Graham in '84.
