    With these new rules in place KTM and BMW are looking at entering WSK for 2009 / 2010.

    I give it one year (maybe two) before the Japanese exploit the new rules, and it becomes "unfair" for Ducati again.

    Next set of major rule changes is going to see the displacements pushed lower. 5 years we'll be watching guys race 600's in the Superbike class.

    That wouldn't be so bad. Or maybe 750's

    It wouldn't be exploiting if they use the same rules. If they do go to twins that would be cool.

    V-twins forever baby!

    I have $20 that says Ducati starts whining the *second* a Japanese 1200cc V-Twin hits the track.

    Of course, we consumers will win in the end from som cool bikes being generated. But I think its stupid they changed the rules for Ducati.

    Honestly dude, do some research. Read some opinions of un-biased 3rd party Scenesters.
