I could never figure that one out - Drop the SS line and bring in some retro stuff. Like I want to look like an old f*rt who finally got the toy he wanted when he was a kid. I don't think it is marketing rocket science to realize that you can probably sell less of those than Supersports, once the retro types have got their bikes, how many more can you sell?

Whatever - I am hanging on to my ol' 900SS. Perhaps one day I will find an affordable 750F1 to complement it...
