An other bike to keep an eye on will be the 5X Kawasaki of Shane Esposito, with Steve Hengeveld and Bobby Garrison.
Shane and Steve have a lot of Baja experience, and Bobby is just plain faster than stink in the rough stuff.

From Quinn Cody's twitter-

Think I have a little wager going w/ @RobbyGordon if he beats us at San Felipe he gets my Dakar helmet, now what do I get when we beat him??

Excellent write up by Scotty Breauxman at RDZ here-http://www.race-dezert.com/home/ktm-and-thr-kawi-to-challenge-jcr-h...
He makes a point about K.N. that can be seen in this video, the dude is just a freak of nature.
Nobody can do that in the whoops.

Make some picks, let's go top 3 with tiebreaker being do the bikes beat 4 wheel vehicles.

Will's picks-
1X
6X
5X
If I be wrong the 4X did not break...
No
On a personal note; I will be in 29 Palms this weekend working on the race course for our GP. I will be around for the start and hope to lurk some during the day. Can one of you Bar Fly's start picks for the SX ? I should be back at my brothers house for the race.
