Anybody have any idea or special knowledge of the quantity EB.R has sold. He needs to sell a minimum of 100. |

Quote:He needs to sell a minimum of 100. Unquote Why? Is 100 a magic number for qualifying for something? |

I believe that was the necessary quantity for the 1190RS to legally race in AMA Superbike. |

100 have to be produced to qualify, not sold.
