i believe all of this was already known, well at least to hopper, and not explicitly told how bad it was to Team Hammer
And sometimes the guy fesses up and saves his team the grief. http://www.roadracingworld.com/news/article/?article=40191
Why are you guys so suprised? In other threads on the topic JU has stated that Hopper failed to inform him of the wrist stuff. Glad your moving on JU, find someone who wants to ride that superbike more than collect a check.
In the end, it doesn't seem all bad. He brought his big sponsor with him, and your other racer won the title for your team anyway.
The money only worked if he won 4 out of 18 races. It seemed like a good bet at the time... And Martin is a stand-up guy!
