Rea jumps ship to Yamaha in 2024:

Not the best move in my opinion, unless Kawasaki has no further interest in world series racing and somehow it's become clear to Johnny that sticking with Team Green would be a mistake.

On the other hand, how Kawasaki could let their most successful rider, ever, go mid-contact, is hard to understand. I'd like to think they have some new bright talent (s) in mind, but who???

I believe it has to do with Kawi/KRT telling Rea in 2022 that they was going to have a new designed zx10 for 2024. But that didn’t happen.
