It will do Ducati good to be able to do development in MotoGP with Rossi testing that carries down to the WSBK series, and eventually the sales floor. However, will Ducati lose its character without the narrow tube framed V Twin goodness?

Not to change subject, but I'm hearing Honda is in development of a v4 superbike. A possible replacemnt for the ageing Blade???

EDIT - The RVFR will sit alongside the CBR as a higher end platform....
