Wow. Never woulda saw that coming. Not that it matters and it won't effect any future purchase decision I ever make, but I'm not a fan of the move.When I started following MX and SX Jeremy had just gone to blue. Then he finished out on Honda and I learned about his glory days from 93-96 so that was pretty iconic. This just seems weird. I know he rode team green as a kid, so there's that.

Employing someone so long associated with Honda as a Brand Ambassador seems a bit odd to me.

From a testing perspective, I think it's a brilliant move for Kawasaki if Jeremy will be as involved as he was in recent years at Honda.

It seems odd that Honda would let that happen but it isn't like the McGrath / Honda relationship hasn't been on again off again.

The fact that the graphics are different in the pictures above kind of kills your pun. Laughing

To bad he has to fly that Evil Claw all over his shit..

Probably makes him want to vomit, but i suppose the cash has a Pepto-Bismo effect..

Pretty crazy! Love that he's back in the Bell lid as well - if only he could ditch the Monster paint scheme and run one of his classic designs.

So is Mcgrath going to be in the booth with Fro and Ralph doing SX again?

Its bad enough having one guy in the booth who works for Kawi...now we have Mc too? Annnnnd hes a Monster "athlete"

When are we going to see Ralph with a personal sponsorship deal from Kawi and Monster?

There stacking the booth with biased announcers.

This is going to take some adjusting Bro's. I know MC rode other brands, but him and Honda are like PB&J to me.
