see that is why me is confused . . . I knew bout next year . . . must have missed that memo
The other Avintia bike is still the Kwack.
Talk at Aragon was that if Barbera had to change tires they'd have to choose whether to send him out on the Kwack or to change tires on the Duc. I believe they only have one Duc, and they did change tires.
That might have changed for Japan.
