    Hopper goes Green??

    After all these years putting up w/ the Zook's issues in MotoGP & FINALLY getting top 5 finishes on the thing, he's jumping ship to Kawi?????

    On the plus side, maybe this'll even out the middle of the pack a little more.

    I agree, what kind of career decision is this?

    I mean De Puniet has done ok on it but its not really better
    than the Zuk. Too bad he couldn't have snagged Colin's
    ride. I think he could give Rossi a better run for the money
    than Colin has thus far.

    I wonder where Toseland is going to end up now.

    the problem with Kawi was they got such a late start in development and practice time on the bike. when the season started they still had no idea what they were riding.

    ugh. i was really hoping capirossi would retire and hopper would take his ride... love to see him on something that's a seriously fast machine. i hope kawi can create something he can win on.
