About time. Westy will kick arse in that paddock. I hope he never throws a leg over a Kawasaki again.
 
good luck to westy, i hope he does good things and gets up near the top soon. a WSB ride in 2010 would be a good result.

Good luck in your new job Ant.

The Stiggy Honda is a very competitive ride, it's a proven race winner team. He will be in a great position to get some results. I think 2009 will be a much happier season for Ant West and probably a even more unhappier one for Marco Melandri.

The one it would cost less to get rid of obviously.

You are surely not saying that Hopkins has earned a place on next years grid?

I'm glad that Westy earned his place in WSS. My crystal ball says in 2 years time he'll be in SBK on a xerox Ducati.

Can't say where Hopper will be next year. Westy got a couple of wins in another class and is a known quantity. Where else could hopper go and be welcomed?
 
Definately more suited to his level, i can see him doing well there dry or wet.

Agree, I think Westy got shafted by Kawasaki.

I'll be surprised if he is not above Hopper in the points table by the end of the year, and to be honest, I'l be very happy if he is.

Liked Ant, Hop's OK - doesn't matter who's ... was in those saddles the Kawi platform wasn't going far or fast.

anyone else get the feeling that the most likely person to win a race for kawa in 2008 would be westy, not hopper?

Absolutely. He's the only Kwak rider to lead the timesheets in practice this year (has Hopper even got a sniff?), as far as I know.

No one's going to win on that bike in the dry. If it's wet, anything's possible with West.
