Maybe that means the '07s are coming down in price??? Bizarre to say the least. Yeah, I read that this morning before the coffee kicked in and didn’t get it either.

The American market is still their largest arena for sales and leaving the AMA series would no doubt only serve to reinforce the notion that Japanese bikes are currently superior on the racetrack. Pretty hard to sell $17,000 superbikes while supporting that kind of logic. That being said, I suspect any racing rumors right now are predicated on the fact that Ducati wants to increase their displacement from 1000cc's to 1200cc's or thereabouts and since the Japanese are against it there's a tremendous amount of posturing going on.

Well... I suppose 150 well-heeled fans can have a lil' memento. Maybe as consolation prize for not being able to score a D16RR this year...
