Triumph Motocrosser In Action T riumph Motorcycles re- leased its latest teaser for its upcoming 250cc four-stroke motocross bike rollout. This installment shows the bike in action with Ricky Carmichael and Evan Ferry at the controls. The photos and videos are stra - tegically edited so as not to show too much detail, but Triumph promises the bike's official reveal is right around the corner CN WIND IN THE P40 Triumph released action teasers of its new 250cc four-stroke motocrosser, shown here being ridden by Ricky Carmichael. Justin Cooper Moves Up J ustin Cooper will make his 450cc full-time debut in 2024 with his current Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha Team. Cooper will race alongside team - mates Eli Tomac and Cooper Webb (who is expected to sign with the team). "I'm super excited to sign the 450 deal with Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing," Cooper said. "We've had an awesome six years together on the 250, and I think that success should transition quite nicely to the 450 class. I'm also super excited to start this next chapter of my ca - reer. It's really nice to know that we have a team behind us that knows me and what I like on the bike to make that transition easier and carry over the suc- cess we've built on the 250 over to the 450 class. I feel like I'm in a good spot going into this next season. To be able to make my full-time 450 debut with a crew that I'm comfortable with and that I trust—it's just a welcome feeling. There's nothing really to worry about, like a big transi - tion stage and having to move or anything like that. I'm really looking forward to it." Cooper will finish out his 250 career at the upcoming inaugural SuperMotocross World Champi - onship Finals before prepping for next year's full-time debut in the Monster Energy AMA Supercross 450SX, Pro Motocross 450MX and 450SMX Championships. CN Justin Cooper will be a full-time 450 rider starting next year with his current Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha Team.
