    It's not quite that simple. Like when Ducati were trying to keep below 900cc, it was 851, 888; below one litre it was 900, 916, 996, 998, 999. Now they're staying below 1200cc (for the time being), to stay within WSB rules.
    Often times, the number doesn't reflect the displacement anyway.

    It's all about marketing!

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Are you sure? I make it 67.06509476 cubic inches. So, If you were to use Swedish rounding to 2 decimal points, that would make it 67.07 cubic inches.

    Maybe this explains their reliability issues. Their tolerances are way out.
