If Stewart can stay healthy I don't see anyone touching him.
You start out motorcycling with a full bag of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
Some people are like slinkies; they're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
you dont think any of the kids will take to a 450 and be really fast kinda like josh hill .what about reed or windam think they will mount a charge in super cross atleast

No, not really. When Bubba is healthy and on I just can't see anyone currently racing touching him.

i just dont see how he can be so much faster. ya i did when he was the only one doin the bubba scrub but everyone does it now. what really makes him so much better. bike set up possibly
All of these guys moving up will need a transition year on the 450's, just like Bubba needed when he first moved up. Nobody will touch a healthy Bubba next year. However, Dungey was respectable last year in the few 450 races he did so I would expect competition for the remaining podium spots behind James.
all these kids riding lites have been on 450s training since the they knew they were goin to move up . josh hill couldnt ride a lites bike to save his life lol and went out bought a 450 on his own to prove thats where he needed to be
hey ive been doing a little bit of digging . nothing is official except reed so far. ive heard that bubba will be on a yamaha in 09 and san manuel has teamed up with honda. alot of riders look to be switching teams or not having rides at all
Bubba, just like Ricky knows how to step it up a notch when people catch him. They train on the edge and trim back to race. Most riders are the opposite. He's starting to see what Ricky did that made RC one step ahead of the game all the time.
I think if he jumps ship from Kawi it's for money. With all the factory's slashing all of their riders salaries next year it will be interesting.
The question is...... if Bubba made the switch, would he be able to keep the same pace on different equipment the first year. Probably but if he stays on green Reed will give him a run in sx but Bubba will own outdoors, again.
