Surprised at his move there , but he is evidently getting huge $$$$ for it.

I didnt foresee him moving from Suzuki , but its certainly good for K to have a top able rider on their machine

Aye, saw that. Very surprised, seeing as how the GSV-R is doing so well this year. Looks like Kwak will be Hopkins and Capirossi next year.

Tis a surprise....he's doing pretty well. Still, the KWAK's are improving of late.
Good move all round I guess.

I dont know too much about Hoppo... is he a good development rider? I cant help but feel that Kwak really need to shell out some big bucks to a fast rider who can win races and tell the team exactly what to do to the bike.

The Yammie M1 wasnt so hot until Rossi was able to say to Jerry ' A maka it mora grippy atta de frant' etc

Hoppo has been doin real good this year, so has the Suzi, I hope Hoppo is able to give Team Green the feedback it needs to kick ass and mix it weekly with the big boys.

Hoppa's been with Suzuki since the start of the Moto GP era, so I guess he will have had a lot of input in the development of it.

Maybe he's not that keen on Paul Denning, or it's too do with the money.

Or maybe he thinks the colour of the Kwack will make his teeth look even whiter...

Hoppo and Richard Hamster Hammond in the same team... what a line up!

Big surprise, is it because Chris V has had the win and he has not?

As big Chris has pushed him all the way on his first run on the Suzuki!
