I know I heard he is renewing his contract on a pod somewhere this week but I would think someone in this country (Or Aus ) would have the scoop

Honda should sign Deegan too- They could ghost ride their bikes into each other..

I wonder if Hunter has been signed? He seems to be the next best (or close to it) right now so they would have their bases covered.

So, what are we guessing? $2M salary plus bonuses and incentives? Not to mention endorsements? He should walk away with $5M, right? Or is it way more? Remember when MC asked for, what was it? $1M and Honda said no way? That actually made a real impact on sales. Suzuki and Yamaha saw a bump, while KTM got treated like a pariah. 

 

Wonder why that was?

That looks like the one going around that says Ken Roczen just signed a $30M/year contract...........

Lawrence may have a new contract, but that looks like it's close to a Walty Wanders type of post.

Edit:  

This one is even bigger!

This info seems to confirm that….turned down decent money offer from Honda.  😂😂😂

It’s on the internet so it has to be legit 😂

I see Hunter possibly leaving. He’s good enough to be the #1 at another manufacturer and getting his own top pay. Unless Honda can some how pay both salaries, I see him leaving at some point.

I’m crying laughing. Let me know if there’s any way I can also help get her back to wherever her home country is <3

MX Argentina just spits whatever they hear on social media or vitalmx. Not a legit media company.

You almost have to consider whatever you pay hunter as being not just paying for a consistent podium guy for your second rider but also part of the formula that has made your top guy the future GOAT. Should have almost the same sense of urgency to sign him and keep the machine rolling as you have to just sign Jett.

Honda has plenty of money, they actually lend their own money through AHFC

Doesn't matter whether this particular story is true because it'll end up true one way or another. This isn't a ball sport where you have a whole payroll of athletes to balance; just throw the bag at Jett and lock him down until he shows a decline.

I can't remember which video it was, but IIRC, Weege mentioned they both extended their contract with HRC Honda, but it hasn't been announced yet.

Jett for sure signed a long term extension.

Anyone ever find out what the crazy amount Roczen got paid they had to call in the big boss from Honda to sign off on it?

When has Honda kept two highly paid top riders? I heard on a pod somewhere they were speculating if he stays or not. If Jett got the money I’ve heard being thrown around (15M) it’s hard to see Honda paying Hunter something in the same ball park. I’m sure he wants to stay and I’m sure Honda would love to keep him but if another team offers him 10M, does he stay with Honda?

He won't be forgotten I promise.  The entire family, and HRC, have a system that works, and works very well.  They both benefit from one another.  HRC will NOT break this up, they have learned from the past how sour things can go when you let an elite slip away.  You think it was just a mere coincidence Mr. HRC was at Redbud?  Keeping an eye on his current, and future corporate expenses.......???  Promise you,  he left there a very happy man.  He is opening the Honda checkbook, with a very big smile on his face.  Honda money is literally endless......   Betcha Lars gets a raise too..........  He damn well deserves it.  Class act all around.

$10M a year for Hunter?  On top of $15M for Jett?  

Or are these spread out over 3-5 years?

There were multiple rumors about Kenny getting around 12 million for his first Honda contract (I think it was 3 years?) Nothing was ever confirmed though, as always in our sport 

I do think Kenny getting like 6 million for his 3 year WSX contract was insane though, specially when you think about the few races they do per year. He's definitely not retiring poor, that's for sure lol

I know I've heard the boys get a decent win bonus.  Something like $100k for 450 and half that for the quarter liters.  That's a really nice cherry on top for someone winning almost every race.

Seems hard to believe there's that much money in our little sport.  I remember Roger telling me he was happy the riders were making good money but admitted he was a little jealous about the peanuts he made in his day.  

Speaking of Roger...when should we hear something about our Nations team?  Hopefully it's not delayed again.
