Here's another kick in the nuts to the privateer teams, Buell included.

http://www.roadracingworld.com/news/article/?article=26412

I can't believe they did this! How in the hell do they expect the small teams to compete. They say in the article that there is a form of traction control available for $8500 per bike. But, you know that Team Yoshimura, Team Yamaha, Team Honda, Team Kawasaki, etc., will be shelling out the big bucks for the World Superbike stuff that I heard costs in excess of $350,000 per bike!!

One more step backwards for the privateer!!
