Aprilia? Surely they don't rely on their old data?

Yeah, maybe you're right.
I would be interested to see if there's any facts backing this though. Because I do think, due to what is known about BMW and their engineering obsession, the bike section is not excluded from this madness of spending money on enginering things!

I don't think they will need miracles, it sounds like there's no chance in hell they vill do continously well! I think they got good riders, what seems like a marvelous bike, they do darn good times on their testing and from what I hear some of their opposition does not do as well, Aprilia for instance!
But, let's agree to disagree! ;-) Only time will tell!
