- Welcome back everyone. It's been a crazy few weeks.
It's been a crazy journey so far and I'm looking forward to the future but right now I'm looking forward to finishing out my 9th consecutive season with my Kawasaki Racing Team.
Thanks again to all my viewers for the support.

I followed your father on the roads and I've followed you now for many years. All the best for your future from Carnmoney.
Legend simple as that
Thank you!
Spectacular video as always Johnny! Thank you for what you have done in these wonderful years riding a Kawasaki, it’s not enough. I tell you this as an Italian fan who has always followed and supported you since 2016, seeing you as an idol, an example both on and off the track! Thank you because if I love this sport and the house of Akashi, it is only because of you.
Good luck with your new adventure in Yamaha, of course you will do as you always have, excellent and great results. Thank you Jonathan Rea, thank you so much for everything.
Cannibal, the best❤️💚
Thanks Davide
Congratulations on 3 podiums, Jonny! Happy to see ZX10RR is getting competitive even in that hot condition. Good luck for next round🤘
I will always love and support you🥰 and your vlogs are my motivation so please keep posting it in Yamaha🙏
First of all if you want to be light on race days you will drink Nescafe Classic without sugar shaken with lots of ice, it is the Greek way of a good breakfast.
Regarding the hunger for victories, in order to do this you must have a knife and fork to eat and also food to fill up. We can certainly eat with our hands, if of course there is food.
If your blood is "pretty much green", rest assured that it will never turn blue. If you mix 50-50 green with blue, you get teal. If the green is more it comes out Jade.
In 2025 you will be, again, total green.
I will be happy if you get wins even with R1, but as an owner of 5 Kawasaki bikes (and 1 Yamaha bike) I more by the side of big K, so we're gonna welcome you again back in the lime green family :) :)
Cheers from Athens Greece!
Gentleman. All the best from Norn Iron
Thanks
I've always been a fan of you and Kawasaki. Gutted to see you leave, but I will still hope for the best for you the rest of this year and next year!
I appreciate that
Doesn't matter what brand. You are always gonna be champion.
A ZX10RR, ZX14R and H2-Brocks Stg-2 in my stable I’ve been more than proud of how Mr Rea represents The Green Team. His riding skills are More than proven, with 6 WSBK Championships but he’s also professionalism personified and demonstrates what an exceptional attitude is, everywhere he goes
😎🎩♠️💙
Sad to see you leave kawasaki but super excited to see what amazing things you can do on the yamaha keep up the great work!
All the best for you in the new bike. As you said, you're still supercompetitive and is gone to be exciting to see what you can do with the R1. Good luck!
This decision makes sense but it wouldn't have been possible without the bonkers decision to go to BMW by Toprak. Kudos to him (and to you) for making the field more intersting. Sadly Dorna still insists on keeping some tech rules which have favoured (and still do) Ducati too much.
6 times world champion..let that sink in for a moment ❤
Everyone knows you are the fastest 👍everything's of the riding, setting &more.
Really thankful you keep making these videos for your fans!
I raced along with your aul fella on TZ350 Yamahas.. A change is as good as a rest Johnny but im not sure if Yamaha has a championship winning bike but i hope you prove me wrong..
All the very best the future.. Team Fabulous#69... Newtownards..
There's only so long you can bang your head against a wall before you have to change something...go well JR 👍
Everyone knows you are the fastest 👍everything's of the riding & setting.
Good luck with Yamaha Johny , thanks for bringing 6 world titles to Kawasaki . My hard stays 💚💚💚 but I wish u all the best.
Thank you too!
Great battle in race 2 with Toprak. I thought you had him, but that damn Toprak found another gear somehow on the last lap. Well done in all three races and congrats.
Lmao Wayne you every where man
@@NudaMan Do I know you?
@@bckmkr1 no but I usually see you in the moto America live chatting it up 😂
@@NudaMan Ok. I love anything motorcycle racing. My friend Fabio Di Giannantonio races in moto 2. I raced with Wera for twenty years, mostly in V-4 ,V-5 and clubman. Won the V-4 national title in 2003 thru 2006. I still run here and there with Wera and Ahrma.
Thanks Jonathan, another great video. I always look forward to watching these after the race weekends 🔥
The one thing hit me and it's when You said "I felt I still have too much potential and too much hunger to keep winning", wish too see You racing for many more years, now in team blue! Good luck mate!
Definitely to early for retiring and riding over the limit every weekend, is not good for your health Marc has proved that hopefully he makes the right decision too.Good luck! for the rest of the season and hopefully you can bring that big trophy home next year 😉💪
Such a great attitude. Enjoy these! Good luck champ!
Big up for going for a new challenge. I couldn't see many going for it at thid stage of their career. Best of luck, im sure theres gonna be lots of hard work from yourself.
Great battle with Toprak. Not the result you want, but a great show for us fans. You top three guys were a class act again. ❤
Awesome bud congratulations top racing 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
That was a nice video, and a good weekend jonny!. All the best for the switch next year. Cheering for you always!
Great weekend Jonathan! Congratulations!
Looking forward to the rest of the season and even more to next season! 😉
Keep yourself safe!😃👍❤🏍
Randy
Bit of life left in me yet .. Don't worry..
@@jrea65 😎👊
Good consistency over the weekend in hot conditions, great stuff Jonny. Congratulations on making the hard decision to move, look forward to seeing you on the Yamaha and the rest of this season on the ZX 👍
Rea thank you for the WSBK championships on the ZX10RR you made Kawasaki boys proud your ride was legendary I wish you the best on the Yamaha hopefully Kawasaki gets there 💩 together let the good times roll
Keep up the good work Rea! I feel the need, the need for speed!
Great races buddy. Keep going 💪🏼
Thanks, will do!
Stoked to see you on a yamaha because now I can root for my favorite rider on my favorite bike! I think you're gonna enjoy the midrange grunt coming out of the corner with that CP4. I love Kawi's too having owned 6 of em since 1989 but there's something special about that crossplane experience. Best of luck in these last few races of the season 👍.
Well done Jonathan not a bad weekend 👏
Amazing rider good luck with the Yamaha 👌👌
Thanks ✌️
Mr. Rea.
Thank you so much for making these videos. I can understand you decision for moving on, it must have been a hard one to take.
Cheers
Tomas

Good move. Maybe not the perfect move but a change and a new challenge could pay dividends.
Absolutely BUZZING to see you on a R1 JR. i think your style will really suit it cant wait
Wishing you the best of luck for the next races and seasons
Looking forward in seeing you in Team Blue Yamaha R1 👍👍👍❤️💙💚
Ciao Johnny! Grazie per dare tutto te stesso ad ogni gara. Grazie per lo spettaccolo che tu e Toprak ci avete regalato in gara 2 🔝
That was a great weekend with amazing races! I even got the opertunity to meet you twice and you signed my JR Flag. Thank you for that \m/
well done jonny lad
Thanks
A little sad that you're leaving Team Green 💚💚 but totally understandable as you really are still very competitive and capable of having more success with a stronger package. I'll continue to be a fan because you've shown yourself to be a great sportsman with a lot of class and respect for your fellow competitors and fans. Best of luck to you the rest of this season and of course next year!! Cheers! 😎💯👏✊️
Class as usual, always support from home Johnny downtown Ahoghill 😂
Thanks
Love watching you ride the piss out of that Kawi, sure you'll do the same with the Yam! Always a fan, no matter what! Wishing you all the best, Champ! 💚🙏from🇺🇸
👍️
Ive said for a long time on here that I am Yamaha through and through but I always hope you'll win no matter what you ride. You going to Yamaha is as good as it gets, I'll be wearing JR underwear from now on.
Having a friend in BSB, riding the R1, I am intrigued to see the direction this takes your career, Johnny. Personally, I think the R1 is a better bike (I know just like a a**h*le, everyone has one). Best of luck, sir.
Big JR fan but not sure going to Yamaha will help his cause.
Best WSBK rider at the mo is Toprak, over riding the Yamaha is an understatement.
Bautista is good but he weighs F all and he’s on the best bike with loads more revs even though they’ve reduced them recently.
Ditch aero, ditch reaction control, put them all on 15k revs and stop Ducati bending the rules just because they’ve got less frame adjustability, it’s typically off the Italians to bend the rules
Im really glad you are moving to Yamaha. But it would have been great to see you on the red rocket and show them whos boss. Keep safe and good luck for the Future 👍
Well as racing goes, leaving a team one is best known for and built around, has never brought the desired results and is often shortly followed with retirement afterwards. So not sure Rea's move to Yama was a good one.
JR in blue ok...but considering that you won't be able to match your 6 titles your 💚 will remain green.😜✌️
Always hard to leave a crew you have worked, and worked well with, to move elsewhere. Change is good.
Superb
I'd love to see your Whoop data from the weekend, I was struggling just watching you guys!
Thanks - HR was high at the weekend. Anyone else interested in this?
It wont seem right seeing you on any bike except Kawasaki ,but good luck and sure to see you on many more podiums !
Gran carrera Johnny!! pero ahora voy a tener que cambiar mi kawasaki x una yamaha!!!
Good luck mate! I feel like now I'll have to go out and buy a Yamaha to follow you, but what's yet another bike in the stable? I need a twins-elligible bike anyway (looking at an R7).
It's hard to leave your family, even if it is your work one. You pushed the Hondas as far as you could, stayed longer than you should have out of loyalty. Now you've done the same with the Kawasakis. Time to move on. It's time.
Although if it were me, would have stayed for the hospitality truck. 🙂
Well come to the Yamaha family! I am sure you have more championships ahead!😊
You, and the rest of the paddock have to stop ducti from cheating all of you with illegal parts. Force them to reduce the their rev limit to that of Yamaha and Kawasaki.
When they raced with their 11000cc V2, Yamaha Suzuki Kawasaki and Honda, were forced to race with 750cc restricted!!
Not quite. Check your facts. When 1098R & Panigale were racing they were 1200cc. 1000cc in WSBK since 2003.No big fan of Audicati at present but currently they have NO technical advantage. When WSB started in 88 they were 250cc AND 25K lighter. The series originator Steve McLaughlin had drafted 25Ib but somewhere along the line it got lost in translation. That's why Imho Fogarty (& all bar Bayliss 06 title) mean nothing.
Presently Ducati are building a better bike & have a great Rider to interpret it. Only AB makes the difference. Don't thing the V4R is the sweetest handling bike but AB knows how to maximise it's strengths.
@@alanoliver379Check your information again, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superbike_World_Championship. AB is 20 kilos less than the rest, FIM initially blocked ducati to race with an engine revving at 16500 RPM. Yamaha and Kawa are at 15000RPM.
Ducati is very good in cheating in every championship they race...
@@KHIJAPAN As I said no lover of Ducati at present, Especially when it's being done by an Aprilia engineer & VAG Money. There is no denying the V4R is a Phenomenal piece of kit. There is also absolutely nothing stopping Kawasaki & Yamaha building their own V4's. Only current market forces.
The Sadly defunct European Super stock Championship (which was canned as the belief that some of the better funded Teams would make the leap to WSBK.... They didn't) should have been the blueprint going forward for WSBK rules, It would have lowered the costs significantly. WSBK has got better over the last couple of years but the depth of Talent in WSBK is nothing like Moto GP (or BSB for that matter)
you cant do this to us. 😂
#JR65
i'm a kawa fan for over 30j. I understand your desision. and which you all the luck. but I don't understand that kawa can't build a more competitive bike. after years off domination.
Very good Weekend Johnny!!!!!! You are the best❤
Thanks
I am Japanese
I love you and support you. I wish you the best

The secret is, Johnny is taking the seat at Yamaha that Toprack is vacating, or at least thats the big story.
It’s gonna suck when Rea retires. The only reason I follow SBK is him. Everyone else is boring. Hopefully they find a way to keep him in the loop every week
Welcome to Yamaha and thanks for taking us along :)
Should have left Kawasaki 2 years ago .
You are probably right, but it seems he was committed to trying to make this version of the ninja work.
I think Johnny will suit the Yamaha better and Yamaha will now push like MotoGp with a new motor / electronics package as Toprak has a very unbalanced front to rear style
Unfortunately WSB and MotoGP are now a fast procession,just like boring F1.
Spectacular performance, like we are used to prom the best! Sucks to see Kawasaki didn't push harder for the better package and to keep you onboard of green machine for the next season. I have a feeling that Kawasaki is going to use all concession points to bring a better performing machine which you would bring home for another title. Anyways, all the best in Yamaha, and I'm going to keep my eyes peeled watching both you and Toprak next season. For the remainder of the season, enjoy the ride and bring some show we all enjoy! Go JR65, Go Team Green!
Yamaha? WTF?! Thanks for the ride, but going to Yamaha is a huge mistake. Sadly you won't win anymore championships over there & I don't see much success in the future. Take care, old friend. With that I'm out of SBK. Alvaro is a garbage human being & I won't watch.
La peggiore scelta della tua vita!!
Big JR fan but not sure going to Yamaha will help his cause.
Best WSBK rider at the mo is Toprak, over riding the Yamaha is an understatement.
Bautista is good but he weighs F all and he’s on the best bike with loads more revs even though they’ve reduced them recently.
