Wow, didn't see that one coming. The grid in WSBK is quickly becoming scarce; much different than just 2 years ago with Ducati all-in and Aprilia threatening to make a debut.

Dissapointing... I enjoyed watching and listening to the R1s. WSBK is going to be as bad as AMA soon. Looks like I'll be rooting for Checa or whoever they have in seat for Kawasaki.
