I think the racing was only part of the problem.
lack of winning a contributing factor?
2000 Monster 900Sie, a few changes
1992 900 SS, currently a pile of parts.  Now running
                    flogged successfully  NHMS  12 customized.  Twice.   T3 too.   Now retired.

Maybe, but they were also involved in manufacturing and design with some foreign companies.

The article linked in this post... http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=69757.msg1305945#msg1305945

suggests that financing that didn't come through was the culprit.

I suppose you can only lose money for so long.

Some time of Ning.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
