"how many of them are long-time riders who wanted the changes?" 1, 3 or 4
"How many of them are newbies who might never ride the bike?" Maybe 2
"Whose view counts where changes are concerned?" Whose view counts to who? If
you mean to industry then everyone. Industry just wants to sell stuff.
"Is it more important to "grow the sport" than it is to inquire of existing
participants what they'd like to see changed?" If its industry then they sure
as hell seem to want to just sell stuff and screw consequences.
2nd to last question - that needs a 10 year crystal ball. Out of my league to
answer that.
Last question - Ted thinks I'm getting too cynical about consumers. Maybe I'll
change my mind as I get less grumpy but yeah, I think people are mainly buying
automata.
