HRC treated Colin ver badly from the time he managed to win the WSB corwn despite Honda not giving him any help up til the 8H when he was miles behind Bayliss. They tried to give him the idea he was wanted then dumped him when the so called "better prospect" Hayden came on the scene. He wrote a column for a mag over here and the shenanigans that went on that winter were outrageous. He was offered four different HRC rides after hw won the crown and signed for Ducati. HRC really messed him around and he signed for Aprilia.
I think Yamaha is the best move anyway, better than Repsol even. He is wanted as he says, he has history with Yam in AMA in WSB. He rides the front like Vale but can spin it aswell like Rossi and he gets on fammously with him.
Great move and isnt it nice to have two bloke in a team with massive determination to put one over HRC!
