Good to see he has a big sponsor, yes I know boost had been in the sport before but good to see the interest coming back. Now if we could just get the beer and cigarettes to come back!

I wonder if this is next years plan or the bike that was suppose to go to Australia?

I think it’s just Boost’s logo that kills it for me. Looks like the offspring between a vagina and the One Industries logo

Not sure. Is factory services still running? Can't you just buy their shit?

You can't now. Factory Services still "technically" exists, but not just as name for the engine service/building area within KTM and Husky. Chad would have to be getting direct help from Husky to get those and at that point...it's more of a lease program.

Actually really dig the simplistic look. Really, if you did up the front number plate and fenders, it'd look like a proper team bike.

Husky has to be a favourite for sponsors there's a whole lot of flat surfaces for big logos haha

FWIW: PC has more than enough capability to build one of those motors.

Funny thing, when I 1st met Mitch...

He was running Husky 250s and 500s with Andy Jefferson as his rider.

That is not the bike that will show up at A1. Chad always kills it with his clean designs, and you have to think that is just to rep the sponsor that is representing him in a big way.

You guys like this but didn’t like Barcias MEC bike? It doesn’t even have backgrounds.

It's a Pro Circuit assisted effort right now, so Showa it is.

Always wondered what it was with the #22 and Boost. Seen pics of Chad and James Courtney ( V8 SUpercars ) together. Always thought Chad may give the V8 lites class a try and see how it goes , after he's done with moto. Would be cool to see him move into that series once the slinging dirt part of his life is over.

Chad is very good friends with Peter Adderton, who is the founder of Boost Mobile, and they have had a relationship for many years now, and i think they will for years moving forward.

To everyone complaining about the look. Do you honestly think it looks complete? I guarantee by the time A1 rolls around that bike will look nothing like it currently does.

There's no fender graphics, no swingarm graphics, no backgrounds on the number plates, stock yellow fork guards, stock seat, etc.

Reed's bikes have always been some of the best looking bikes in the pits and that one is far from being one of them. You'll see.

Chad did seem keen on v8 s but with the controls on testing and seeing how stoner struggled he seemed to give up on the idea

I mean it still has the stock seat cover lol. Hes clearly just giving a shout out to boost mobile for the support. If thats all thats really on the bike then thats what your going to notice. Hell my own Husky is more trick looking than this. If you think hes showing up to A1 with a stock seat cover your crazy. If hes healthy enough to line up at A1 you can bet your ass this bike is going to be badass. Itll be cool too because all of the Huskies look the same, because their all on the same team, but having a "privateer" bike hes going to be able to do whatever he wants with it. This thing is probably going to be one of the most badass bikes out there. Dean Wilsons yz was damn near a factory bike when he was a privateer and that bike looked better than some factory bikes.

Nothin shabby about being 35 and top ten in the world at Supercross . I'd call that Fuken amazing considering his last title was 13 years ago.

He will be the only past 450 SX champ in the field next year
