Red Bull KTM’s Ken Roczen says it really bugs him inside to see Justin Barcia taking the win every weekend, this will be motivation for Roczen as he is desperate to take a win before the AMA Supercross East Coast series ends.

Roczen came into this series expected to challenge for the title, so far his best finish has been a second place in St. Louis, while Barcia has won all four rounds convincingly.

“To be honest, the only thing I want to do is get a frickin’ win. It really bugs me inside to see him [Barcia] winning every weekend. But he is on his peak right now and he’s riding amazing, and it’s not just a luck thing,” Roczen told Racer X.

“He’s out there all the time and all he does is good start and put in some solid laps, and he’s right there.

“With me, rough starts all of the time. I can do better, I know, and we all know. But it’s always good, after a weekend like this, to talk to Roger, Ian, and the mechanics because they give you confidence. I just hope for a good week now and the best next weekend.”

Roczen sits third in the points standings, one point behind second place Darryn Durham and 15 points behind leader Barcia.
