It's been posted a few times. I think that's why there were so many sarcastic replies.

Be a good move for AP since he could name any price he wants and they will have to pay it.

On a serious note, you would think the guys at Seven had to consider it? Idk what they would pay him, but certainly would be attractive to them to sponsor a guy like Aaron, regardless of number choice.

I remember you posting one of them. Couldn't remember if it was first or not though. I think this is number 4 or 5 now?

Ideally it's great but can you imagine the leverage AP has?

Double lites champ moving up to the class where everyone expects he could be even better with the number signed too his name.

Ka-Fucking-Ching.

My First though when I heard he chose #7 was that he should also get a deal with 7 gear , I'm not sure the deta6on if that's possible or not but seems like it would go over big with the fans

I’m waiting for UpTiTe to chime in saying Se7en doesn’t make enough to sign AP...and I think he’s probably right

Imma guess, maybe AP and JS already put a plan together before AP even took the number.

What if seven pays AP to appear at an event someday, and he just doesn't show up and disappears?

Seven gear? Seven figures... Sign that check, James!!! Grinning

Don’t be surprised if he stays with Thor, they definitely have “F you” money and have had AP thus far, however I assume that Alpinestars would prefer to have both of the Yamaha boys in their custom stuff, considering they already have the 51 it would make sense and look pretty cool. They, too have lots of money (“for a f*cking Tickle?!”)

Time will tell.
