Commenting about the Hopper’s new home and the move to WSBK, Bob Moore, John Hopkins’ personal manager stated:
"John is very happy that all his personal sponsors are continuing with him, Monster Energy, Alpinestars, Arai and Spy Optics.*Judging by the first race, it seems like the bike is pretty competitive,” said Moore. “Obviously we just want to be in a position to get John over there and racing. It seems like a good bike. Everybody else was, how much money do you have? Things are tough, even though it's John Hopkins. We feel it will give John a good solid baseline to hopefully get on the box and get some wins eventually."
Hopkins will make his World Superbike debut alongside his new teammates Leon Haslam and Roberto Rolfo, and will test prior to his first race at Almeria course in Spain.
