"Despite detailed discussions with team owner Colin Reed over the past few months we still could not reach or agree acceptable terms," says Stuart."At present I'm working hard to make preparations for a private team but without involvement with a GP graded team it will not be possible to compete in the world championship."The parting between Colin Reed / RWJ Honda and myself has been an amicable one and I appreciate the support he has given me over the last two seasons."
