The AMA (American Motorcyclist Association) has announced the professional competition numbers for pro-licensed riders competing in Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, and the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship for the 2017 season.
All riders use the assigned professional number for competition. In addition, the current champion runs the #1 plate instead of an assigned professional number when competing in the class or region in which the #1 plate was earned. When competing in a class other than the class where the championship was earned, the rider must use the assigned professional number.
It’s noteworthy that Cooper Webb has chosen #2 ahead of the familiar #17 – following in the footsteps of two greats of the sport, Jeremy McGrath and Ryan Villopoto. That’s some big boots to fill but we think Coop is up to the challenge. Joey Savatgy has hooked up with Webb’s old number #17.
Rookie sensation Austin Forkner, who made his pro debut in the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross series in 2016, is now #24.
