I agree, the US series is a dud and has been for the last decade when everyone decided to acquiesce to Mladin and Suzuki and then Spies and Suzuki.

BSB OTOH is awesome; top riders, top kit, and top racing. Find a series where week-in week-out you cannot predict the winner.

I get the BSB ever season on DVD and can watch it endlessly. In contrast I can watch any race of the last 10 years in AMA and not even begin to tell you which track they are on, the front is occupied by team Suzuki everytime.

Hodgson returning to BSB means a step into WSC territory. BSB is closer in spec to WSC and realistically Hodgson as a Brit has a greater chance of returning to WSC from the UK than from the US series.
