And to be clear (which is hard on social media!) I appreciate all the posts above. My comment to Mark is referring to the big picture, knowing which general issues that come up to speak into.

For me, this discussion is something like therapy - which probably means that I am taking dirt bikes too seriously I have been excited about GG developing a new motor (with a more robust starter, for instance). Will the new owners put money into R&D for a new engine, when they have already put it into technology they have recently developed? Does "economy of scale" mean sourcing components that save 5% (or whatever) of costs vs. continuing with those components that GG currently uses?

I appreciate the caution not to "over-speculate" as well. I guess the old phrase "time will tell" comes into play here...we'll know a lot in another year!
