As unbelievable as that sounds it's true! Suzuki has snagged Ricky from Honda. The contract will be in effect Nov. 1.

So, what do you think about this move from RC's standpoint as well as Suzuki? What do you think Honda is thinking? Will Suzuki be able to build a winning bike for RC?

I hate to see RC leave Honda, although from Suzuki's point of view it is probably the best thing that could have happened to them. I would be interested to see what type of bike he will be riding for them. Let's look at the bright side of things...Bubba Stewart is free for signing, let's put him in red.

i'm with you wade...i hate to see RC leave honda...honda better be signing someone who can win a championship soon though.

while i'd love to see Bubby with Honda...there are some pretty strong rumors floating that he's going to sign with KTM. Chad Reed is another strong possibility for Honda. in fact, some rumors rage that he's already signed and just waiting to win the SX championship to make the announcement. i don't have any inside information so i can't say any of this is true...what i do know to be true is without ricky and without signing someone like bubba or chad honda doesn't have a rider that can win a championship in SX or MX...so they have to do something and do it quick!

it's going to be exciting to see who they sign...who do you think it will be?
