Never been a big fan of Max, but is strange he's leaving.
He's been a part of racing for so long, I'm going to miss him.

Not a bad decision on his part - going out a winner. Checa probably wishes he'd done the same last year. Now we'll probably see Max bombing around So Cal on a proper sportbike and not just a scooter - not to say he didn't school people pretty well on a scooter.
