Considered the most prestigious, glamorous and fiercely fought form of motorcycle racing on planet Earth, Monster will back 18 of the motorsport’s best riders across three factory teams as they vie for 450cc and 250cc glory this upcoming season.

Meet the riders below!

Monster Energy / Kawasaki

Since 1961, Kawasaki has been competing in dirt bike racing. And with an industry-best 38 premier class titles (250cc two-stroke and 450cc four-stroke) to go with 31 support class titles (125cc two-stroke and 250cc four-stroke) in AMA supercross and motocross, the heralded KX marque begins its 64th year as a strong contender to add even more championships.

450 CLASS RACERS

#70 Jorge Prado – Probably 2025’s biggest off-season move in professional dirt bike racing, Monster Energy / Kawasaki brings into its stable, for his first full season of American supercross, the world’s top MXGP racer: Jorge Prado. Taking SX/MX great Adam Cianciarulo’s 450 spot adjacent to Jason Anderson, Spain’s Prado arrives on American shores as the two-time (2023/2024) defending MXGP champion. While Prado does have four rounds of SX experience under his belt in 2024 (though he managed just one top ten finish, 7th at San Francisco), he sets sail into uncharted waters as the very first Spaniard to challenge for a full season in the Monster Energy AMA Supercross’ exclusive 450cc class title chase. He will run the No. 70 – a nod to Monster Energy Ricky Carmichael’s ’97 rookie number.

#21 Jason Anderson – “El Hombre,” as he’s affectionately known across America, Anderson returns to Monster Energy / Kawasaki having placed a solid 5th overall in last year’s 450 class points chase. The former supercross champion (2018) who hails from New Mexico will be not only be one of the favorites to challenge for the overall 450 class podium this year, he’ll also play an instrumental role in helping develop the SX rookie Prado.
