I agree, what I think is class B should stay exactly how it is but that class A should be a definite step up / forward. Be a novice in class b a couple of years, get a taste for racing but are too scared/poor for 848 then move into Class A, which I propose to be a 696 cup. I think that 620 and 695 should be eligible but advanced tuning is allowed up to the 696 stock quoted figure.
I don't think power/weight is such a good idea. It's too messy and too much effort. The 695 has the same engine in the older chasis so is cheaper but I think that we should encourage buying the 696 for a one make cup that Ducati might take an interest in.
Those who do class B a couple of years can and want to move up can save up a bit extra and get the later bike but with same entrance fees? The amount peeps spend on powder coating, painting new updated parts at tge end of each season it wouldn't be much more.
Anyone like the sound of a proper 696 cup?
