Michael Mosiman has a new home for the 2027 season, joining Quad Lock Honda\u2019s 250 program as the team looks to strengthen its championship-contending effort across the AMA Supercross, Pro Motocross and SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) series. The American rider brings nearly a decade of professional experience to the Australian-based team, along with proven race-winning speed and unfinished business in the highly competitive 250 class.<\/p>\r\n\u201cI want to reach my potential and see how good I can become as an athlete,\u201d Mosiman said. \u201cI pushed to be a part of this program because I believe this is a place where I can progress my skills, develop the motorcycle and put myself in a position to fight for championships. Kevin Windham\u2019s involvement was a big part of that decision, and I\u2019m excited about what we can accomplish together.\u201d\r\n\r\nFormer professional champion Kevin Windham will play a significant role in the team's rider development, testing and performance program, an important factor in Mosiman's decision to join the organization. Quad Lock Honda founder and team principal Yarrive Konsky believes Mosiman has the talent and experience to deliver results as the team continues investing in its 250 program. American Honda is also increasing its support of the satellite program, with the 250 class remaining an important part of the manufacturer's long-term rider development strategy.\r\n\r\nMosiman will join fellow newcomer Cameron McAdoo as part of the team's strengthened 250 effort for 2027. The organization is focused on building a package capable of consistently challenging for race wins and championships. For Mosiman, the move represents another opportunity to return to championship contention after a career interrupted by injuries.\r\n\r\nQuad Lock Honda will compete throughout the 2027 AMA Supercross Championship, AMA Pro Motocross Championship and SMX Playoffs, with Mosiman expected to be a key part of its championship ambitions.","excerpt":"

Chase Sexton\u2019s short-lived run with Monster Energy Kawasaki is officially over. Kawasaki and Sexton have mutually agreed to part ways effective October 23, 2026, abruptly ending what was originally announced as a three-year partnership after just one season. The split brings another major shakeup to an already chaotic 2027 Supercross silly season, with Sexton now searching for his fourth factory home in five seasons.<\/p>\r\nSexton joined Kawasaki for the 2026 season after leaving Red Bull KTM, arriving with championship credentials after winning the 2023 450SX title with Honda and the 2024 450MX championship with KTM. Expectations were high, but the Kawasaki partnership never developed into the title-contending combination many expected.\r\n\r\nSexton finished sixth in the 2026 450SX championship after a season that included crashes, injuries and only three podium finishes. His outdoor campaign was cut short following a heavy crash at Thunder Valley that resulted in a torn ACL, ending his Pro Motocross season and keeping him out of the SMX Playoffs.\r\n\r\nNeither Kawasaki nor Sexton publicly detailed the reason for ending the agreement early. Kawasaki released a brief statement confirming the mutual decision and pointed to Sexton\u2019s two Supercross victories during the 2026 season while wishing him well for 2027. Sexton also thanked Kawasaki and the team personnel for their efforts.\r\n\r\n\u201cJust want to say thank you @racekawasaki,\u201d Sexton said on social media. \u201cVery appreciative for all the effort by every person involved and I wish the team and all the staff the best going forward. See you at the races!\u201d\r\n\r\nNow the biggest question is where Sexton goes next. With the 2027 Monster Energy Supercross opener at Anaheim approaching, Sexton becomes one of the biggest names still on the board. Yamaha, Honda, KTM and other potential destinations have been discussed in the rumor mill, but no new deal has been announced.","excerpt":"
