He would get slapped for 2-3 years in supercross it’s not even a debate and they way Jett and sexton and tomac have been riding he would have his hands full . Everyone says that 2017 proved that but it didn’t, it proved that given the start when nothings on the line any top guy can win regardless of country. Supercross is a different animal and herlings is too old to learn how to finesse his style to make it work even viale as good as he’s done is gonna have a hard time

I think 350 should be maximum for the premier class. I'd be happy if it went back to 125 lites class and 250 premier class though.the supercross tracks aren't as technical as they used to be, they're alot faster, which would be fine if guys weren't on bikes that are 200cc more than what was ideal for sx. When 4 strokes first came about it was fine because they were heavier and more sluggish, so it balanced out,but 4 strokes now are so advanced. They rev more like a 2 stroke,in terms of explosive power, and they're more responsive now compared to how they were initially. It's basically like trying to ride supercross on a 500cc 2 stroke.theres too much power!!

He’s got a good point… the same issue exists in road racing, the old school bike circuits don’t have the run off required to cope with the modern monsters that are on the grids. In terms of Factory Vs Privateer, this is where you have to give credit to the European manufacturers like Aprillia, Ducati and KTM in MotoGP, they’ve realised that brand dominance is more important than the factory ivory tower winning. Flooding the grids with competitive machinery. (Aero development a whole other can of worms.) Especially Ducati as they’re going after WBSK the same way with the Panigale V4… much the same way KTM have gone after the off-road market with their Ready To Race mantra. The old 500GP two stroke days were great as you could fight for podiums with a privateer bike. Other series have looked at using the rules and regs to keep the racing close. BSB has one of the best grids in that regards. Age old conundrum with factory Vs privateer… only the series organisers and regulators can manage that with the teams to keep the racing close via fair regulation and control of development. (Kit ECUs, etc).

I mean his statements about the horsepower aren't quite correct i think. Bikes haven't increased in horsepower since the 80s. I would say technique suspension and rideability have increased.
