Monster Energy Kawasaki and Jason Anderson have extended their contract into the 2024 season, set to partner Adam Cianciarulo onboard the all-new KX450.

Anderson, 30, broke the news following the Los Angeles at the SuperMotocross World Championship (SMX) final that he had signed with Kawasaki for a further two years.

Today’s 2024 team announcement didn’t specify Anderson’s latest contract terms, but did confirm that he will race-on at Team Green into next year, which will mark the 2018 450SX champion’s third season at Kawasaki. Cianciarulo was already under contract for another season.

“Kawi has given me a couple of [additional] years and I’m looking forward to working my butt off, and having success with them in the future,” Anderson told MotoOnline. “It’s something I would like to hang my hat on, on having a great end to… or two years. When we get past that we will see if we keep going.”

An injury-affected Monster Energy Supercross campaign this year saw him finish sixth in the final point-standings, before claiming P9 in Pro Motocross and eighth overall in the SMX Finals series.
