4TH 450SX
Ken Roczen just missed out on a podium
finish a er dicing with Jus n Barcia.
Roczen said he felt good on the bike,
especially a er switching suspension on
his Suzuki RM-Z450. "We pulled some big
moves this week and made some changes
to the bike and treated today a li le bit
like a test day," Roczen said. "Switching
over to Factory Connec on suspension
setup was huge and having those guys
here with me really made a big difference.
We narrowed our window down on some
of the changes for the main event, so I was
super happy. I had a poor start and came
from the back and just overall had a really
good main event. I worked my way up. I
had a really good ba le with Barcia, and
I could charge the en re way. I just really
enjoyed this race; it was the best race in a
long me. The podium is reachable."
