In a very cool way & based on a comment below regarding "the good ol' days"...I'm reminded of the Moto-X-Fox Suzukis.
Suzuki would do better with their Factory '14 RMZs.

Yeah it's not Mark Barnett, Kent Howerton & Darrell Shultz but we're glad Suzuki remains in the game.
I'm pulling for Hartranft, I hope my guy absolutely kills it

As long as the rider's are above age it's fine.

You have Anstie and Brandon mixed up.
I should have double-checked, but... in our defense, that's the way it arrived in the press release.
