He was testing for the Ralf Waldmann led MZ Moto2 team earlier but the unofficial leaked lineup for this class didn't have him or the team on it. Looks like another tough year for him.

He was riding a Stiggy supersport machine I think. Don't know how far/if the project has eventuated any further than that.

Scroll down to the bottom and it has Westy as a reserve, it has it on a few other sites as well.

Stay on the gas...maybe you'll save it, maybe you won't, but at least it will end the suspense....

Yeah, as best it could without internal changes.

Apparently 60mm of rear sag isnt the best for handling :D .
