czechhero 32 Posted September 9, 2011 Sad news could it be that he will take a career in music. If his wrist is as bad as feared, he'll have to play like Gilbert O'Sullivan!! It's a shame, but no surprise, ever since he landed on his head at Qatar pre 2009 season, he hasn't been the same. Plenty of riders would give their right arm for his 2 WSB titles, he's given us some great memories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silver Bee 57 Posted September 11, 2011 Really sad when I saw. Myself and another big superbike fan at work have had a laugh at his expense ever since a pathetic video ad on his website claiming that nothing gives him a bigger thrill and helps him to victories more than seeing people wearing his merchandise Have some amazing memories, and a signed horrifically bright orange HM plant t-shirt, of James from when I was younger. I watched foggy as a child but I was a bit too young to understand as much about the racing when I was watching him, so JT was really my first superbike hero. He will be missed !

I used to love watching James as the underdog when Neil Hodgson was on the works bike - he had some amazing results! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
