Interesting to see that Ducati are the first manufacturer to officially test their 800cc bike. It's probably fairly meaningless as a guide to how far along the development it is compared to the other manufacturers, but it's still interesting to see what they have to say about it.

It'll be a hugely interesting next 6 months as the manufacturers roll out their 800's.
I wonder if BMW will really jump in to MotoGP? Anyone heard anything lately?
Not heard a thing, personally. I'd imagine they'd test it and test it and test it before even thinking about making any proper announcements.
:lol: Now there's an idea... :think:
I had this email (http://cat.mag-news.it/nl/n.cfm?TI.Dj.k9A.Hl.c.NGSB) sent through from Ducati earlier.
Edit: Oops, assumed this was something to do with the 2007 800cc bike. It's not, it's for the launch of the V4 Desmosedici road bike, which also sounds pretty sweet.
