Article from Visordown:
"Ducati is blowing economic gloom into the weeds with muscular financial results. But the rest of the European bike industry appears to be misfiring badly. "

Groovy. But I hate to see KTM's results. It mentions that the strong Euro is to blame but that has plummeted in value since summer so that excuse no longer flies. This summer when I was in Europe it was 1.65. Last summer it was 1.35. Right now it is 1.26...

I can see where the stronger Euro would hurt the European companies over the past year (see attached graph). I wish the article included a response from Ducati's thoughts on its success comparred to other Euro manufactures. I'm sure we could come up with a few, but I would like know what the folks in Bologna think.
