Kawasaki Test Track Darkroom

#1 - Jake Weimer, Ryan Villopoto, Tyla Rattray, Nick Wey, and Blake Baggett get ready to go out for some short sprint motos.

#2 - Nick Wey looked solid on his new MotoSport Kawasaki ride. Last time Wey was on a Kawi was in 2010 when he finished 7th OA in the SX Series. How will Nick fare on his new ride?

#3 - Jake Weimer missed almost all of the 2011 SX season with a broken arm but came back for the last two rounds where he finished 7th and 6th respectively. Coming into 2012 healthy, can the 2010 West Coast Lites Champion put his 450 onto the box at A1?

#4 - Ryan Villopoto was hauling at the Kawi test track and looks confident heading into A1.

#5 - Nick Wey

#6 - Tyla Rattray was one of the Pro Circuit riders out on Monday putting in some laps. Mitch doesn't decide who racers which coast until sometime this week, but our guess would be Rattray and Baggett in the West with Deano and Durham in the East.

#7 - Nick Wey

#8 - Josh Grant has moved around the last few years with JGR Yamaha, Factory Honda and now with JWR Kawasaki. With not a ton of time to get ready due to injuries, how will Grant do in his return to racing after being out for almost the entire 2011 race season

#9 - Can Ryan Villopoto repeat his 2011 success?

#10 - Blake Baggett gets some instruction from his trainer Aldon Baker while putting in some short sprint motos. Baggett was 4th last year on the East Coast behind Barcia, Wilson, and Sipes. Will 2012 be the year the Baggett puts an entire series together?

#11 - Jake Weimer looked good with his new Atlas Brace.

#12 - Josh Grant

#13 - Broc Tickle is Pro Circuits first exclusive 450 effort and looked comfortable on the bigger bike. How do you think the 2011 West Coast SX Champion will do in the 450 class as a rookie?

#14 - Blake Baggett

#15 - Nick Wey

#16 - Ryan Villopoto gets loose over one of the triples.

#17 - Jake Weimer

#18 - Dean Wilson was ripping the whoops and looked solid after his being off the bike for awhile during the off-season. If Dean races East Coast with Barcia, will he be able to knock off the reigning champion?

#19 - Ryan Villopoto

#20 - RV and Deano

#21 - Kyle Chisholm is JWR's second rider and is another one who has moved around quite a bit in the last few years. Kyle grew up on Kawasaki's and should be very familiar with them. How do you think JWR will do in there first year?
