Mercedes-AMG confirms buying 25 percent share in MV Agusta

Wow, Audi owning Ducati, Mercedes-AMG coupled with MV, we could start seeing some really exotic stuff with these kinds of resources and pockets behind motorcycle brands. Be interesting to see if stuff from BMW, Honda and Kawasaki, the other deep pocket deep resource players step it up too. Is the new Kawasaki H2 just a harbinger of more exotic stuff to come?

Indeed.

Ducati's Desmodromic Variable Timing is an interesting development.

I think this is really good news. This is just what MV needed, some really deep pockets. BTW Mercedes just won the constructors title in F1 yesterday in Texas.
