Next years shake ups ...so far
HAPPY 30th YAMAHA YVPS 350 1983-2013. DONT OVER THINK IT , JUST BUILD IT AND BE JUST AS FAST AND RELIABLE
Re: Next years shake ups ...so far
First I have heard of BMW pulling out. And just when they seem to finally be having some success.
I heard Spies has a contract with Pramac Ducati for next year.
Nicky's best bet would be a factory Panigale in WSBK. At least he'd be fighting for wins and a championship rather than just riding around mid pack.

Re: Next years shake ups ...so far
if only the panigale was able to run better then mid-pack in WSBK..... i would be happy to see him in superbike though.
