Given the it appears that the 07 GSXR1000 is not yet fully up to speed (as shown in national level SBK competitions -
I know the Rizla Suzuki BSB team and the Yoshimura Suzuki Aus SBK team haven't produced many results (the AMA team is the exception, but they run under different rules and they are running a hybrid 06/07 bike...)
I think Max has done pretty well, and I'm enjoying his new attitude, which is much easy to take than the grumpy old pr*ck he was in motoGP

I think Max has acquitted himself pretty well this year. He's riding a number of circuits that are new to him on a bike that is totally different to the prototype bikes he's spent his career riding. For him to be a title contender (admittedly a very slim hope) suggests he could still be a force in GP's.
Look at Barros he took ages to get to grips with Superbikes and has got a few decent results in GP's since returning.
Realistically Max would only go back to GP's with a factory seat. That only leaves Kawasaki. Max would be a better option thank Loris in my opinion. He's shown he can adapt quickly unlike Loris who has floundered for most of 2007 on the new 800.
