He's gonna be gutted when those BSTs give up the ghost and write the bike off...

That Ducati, however, has some exceptional bling on it. I'm sure it'll be lovely but to some extent it'll have more changed than you can on a WSB (frame). Not sure I'd have gone quite that far however deep my pockets. Lovely looking components though! Jambo

There was a very in depth discussion with a lot of people, and some input from proper materials engineers on the KTM RC8 forum, put it this way, the folks who know how CF works, how strong it is and how it tends to fail weren't interested in fitting them to their bikes... The problem isn't so much BST themselves but the inherent nature of CF - you can structurally damage the laminate without it being visible, stress it by trying to decelerate 300kg of rider and bike on the track and it can fail unexpectedly and catastrophically, as shown above Tasty bike though, can't see it getting thrashed round a track with all that bling unless the guy is seriously minted
