Wouldn’t the obvious choice be Ty Masterpool?

[@ChristianSokol.]

Its a great choice but maybe not the obvious one.

[@levileatherman2055]

Master pool doesn't really want a factory ride family don't gel with being told what to do

[@Nate_104]

No it doesn’t... Tickle has been a Kawi test rider for years now, he rides and develops these bikes for the main guys every week. It a no brainer.

[@unstoppableplayz6948]

For real. Give the kid a bike atleast.

[@sicklygazelle]

Tony Alessi looks like evil Danny Devito

[@garymallard4699]

[@jeremy_beckers]

I’ve always liked Tickle. Cool to see some of these guys come out of retirement. Brings back good memories.

[@tommylee9339]

Ty Masterpool should be on that factory Kawi ride....

[@chad9982]

Esp. for outdoors!

[@HeavyK_MXB]

Rumor has it that's gonna be Prados ride next year

[@tommylee9339]

I won't believe it till I see the official announcement, but I'm all for the silly season rumors and banter. I have heard that about Prado and Kawi a few times. But...that's 2025. There's a whole summer of outdoors that I believe AC9 is sitting out. Masterpool should get that ride as a tryout for the summer and if Prado is there for 2025, go to a 3 rider team! They have monster as a core sponsor, can't tell me they can't afford it!

[@camaroant2700]

@@tommylee9339Ty and is dad is a pain to work with because they want everything their way plus he isn’t amazing in sx that’s why he doesn’t have a factory ride

[@damonforrest1570]

That’s awesome for Broc cause he still has some serious speed. Hope it works out for him.🙏🇺🇸✌️💯🤙👊

[@keithtarrier4558]

Best way for the tester to test, in an actual race on an official track.

Interesting news and great for Tickle, great, quick show Chase. Like it

[@SMLChase]

Thanks!

[@andystreet339]

Thanks Chase!

[@Sprocket74]

Tickle? Dudes going on 35 with 1 top 5 in the 450 class that was over 12 years ago, what are they smokin?

[@tkleven]

hes their test rider.

[@Sprocket74]

@tkleven Marvs a test rider for KTM too, but that doesn't mean he can still hang at the top level. Trey Canard is the only test rider that could probably still kick some serious ass.

[@HeavyK_MXB]

​@@Sprocket74they don't expect him to hang, the point is that he can find out much more about the bike by getting to ride it in actual race conditions. They're not putting him out there to be competitive, they're doing it to help further develop the new platform

[@edwindeming2148]

I bet he's better than you're giving him credit for. Borderline top 10 rider id bet

[@Sprocket74]

@edwindeming2148 I'm not saying he isn't good. It's Broc Tickle. I'm just saying it's wild to put your test rider in. Even Canard I believe would struggle nowadays to get top 10. Testing isn't racing. I'm not trying to take away from Tickle. I'm sure he will get some top 10s I'm just saying MEPC Kawi isn't normally a team you would think that would settle for top 10s.

[@RezzyMedia]

Man I missed a good Tuesday to film 😭

[@larrymann1sbcglobal]

Masterpol on #9 bike.

[@RobertJones-ix2hu]

Vohland is 250 & Tickle will be 450, So the number 20 issue won’t apply, right?

[@BuckC]

I've seen Dilan Schwartz out riding the stocker a few weeks ago. He lied 😂

[@SMLChase]

Damnit 😂 thought he looked too good out there

[@oh_look_bananas]

If Tickle gets the ride will it just be for the nationals or a supercross deal too?

[@mike23417]

Tickle should go ahead and run the #711 if Max is running 20

[@damonforrest1570]

Broc is in 450 and Max is in 250 . So why can’t they have same number. Unless Max is moving up which I doubt. Reply to my question please. Thanks

[@brysonmoore6877]

Tickle with his amateur number 948

[@steventate9866]

I dont think anyone has AMA pro number 220. He should run that.

[@DisasterTheoryX]

Tickle should run #200

[@FanofMoto]

I understand masterpool is difficult to work with but you think other fast guys aren’t? Ty is gonna sweep the floor with tickle in outdoors. At this point I hope he creates his own factory team

[@SMLChase]

I’m not sure Ty is difficult to work with; the ONLY issue or conflict I’ve heard of in the past is that he wants to ride and train at his place in Texas, where other teams have wanted him in SoCal with the rest of the team. That said, Tickle makes more sense if you look at the situation from Kawasaki’s point. He’s the test rider and can help develop the bike in race situations, they have already been working together for 3-4 years so there will be no growing pains, and if you have seen Broc ride in SoCal the last year or so you know how good his pace is still and how strong he is on a bike. The Ty fill in would be awesome to see, but Broc just makes more sense for Kawasaki.

[@FanofMoto]

@@SMLChase Really? That’s what people are complaining about for Ty? That’s wild. I hear it for the growing pains portion but as for results, this field is stacked and tickles finished back when he was pro were pretty mediocre so I wouldn’t expect better than 15-20 place rides, I’m sure he looks fast at the practice track and can develop the bike but that’s kind of already his role. Unless he’s doing this summer without a salary bump, I just see a wasted investment from Kawi. I could be wrong about where I see his finishing positions this year and he may end up top 10 but only time will tell on this season. Don’t get me wrong I love Tickle and hope he does good, I just don’t see it.

[@deckmonkey1459]

@@FanofMoto I think they said Broc is only doing some races, so it's way cheaper than hiring a full-time rider and he can test during real race conditions for them. It's been awhile, but Broc was just becoming a podium guy before he got banned and wasn't able to weasel out of it like Craig did. Also, no Webb, Tomac, AC, Roczen, maybe Craig and AP half ready, Ferrandis on privateer team. Top ten will still be hard but I can see him possibly getting one.

[@Troll4youu]

Of all riders they pick freakin tickle?! At least pick someone who has potential

[@Gingersnap155]

Tickle is already on the payroll as a test rider and who knows what Ty’s sponsorship contracts are currently.

[@xclife211]

Dude shouldn't have to raise anymore if they f***** u* his surgery.That's medical malpractice, especially considering he's an athlete.He should have got the best of best surgeons
