A few months ago he was reported to have been talking to Aprilia about a
ride on the RSV4. Biaggi's team-mate hasn't been doing much. Could it
still come about?

I was never making reference to one side or the other, just a what if he and Suzuki had stayed together, would he have still been in MotoGP now.

Kinda right, but damn stop crashing.
He does have a shot in BSB if he swallows his pride. They have real racebikes there
I don't see how SBK can survive. Actually, It'd be great if 5 more GP races got added (New Jersey, Brazil, Russia-St Pete, Montreal, South Africa) and GP toured with SBK, having SBK race Saturday after GP Qualifying.

Superbike can survive because more and more fans are finding the hidden gem. If things continue, look for attendance to balloon.
Why wouldn't SBK survive? Much cheaper (relatively) to enter and run a team than MotoGP. Plus they are racing production based bikes, not prototypes, so the development costs must not be as staggering as MotoGP.

Depends on what the manufacturers want to do, and they are not always notably sensible. It also seems to me anyway that part of the reason wsbk is cheaper is that a significant amount of the technology is developed in motogp.
