    Still is. I'd say if he's not still the most popular racer in the paddock he'd still easily be top 5.

    Is. Is here in the US. Is in Europe. Hell, Kevin Schwantz is still at rock star status over there.

    I think the only reason Ben is still on the map with the Europeans is because of the Ducatista's. So I don't know if riding a Honda would do much for them. I like Ben but I can easily think of couple of American racers I'd like to see ride that bike before him.

    Would be cool to see what Tommy Hayden could do on a MotoGP bike, I know, never gonna happen...

    Nope, Ben is a fan in Europe because he was good, funny, some think hot, and fast. It's not just the Duc fans just as Schwantz fans aren't all Suzuki people and all Colin fans aren't Yamaha people. Just because he's not as popular here has nothing to do with popularity overseas.

    Last year at Laguna, LCR entered American Roger Lee Hayden and it's known he is still on very good terms with the team. However, at Daytona, the youngest Hayden brother said that his current contract with American Suzuki would not allow him to ride a GP bike in a wild card situation.

    Wouldn't Ben have a similar contract?

    I like Gigi's idea. Throw Benny Solis on that thing. He is such a good kid. It would be awesome to see him go after the big time.
