Does the ZX10 have potential for World Superbike?

Does the ZX10 have the potential to be competitive in WSB? It would appear that the folks at Ducati would think so. This article from SUPERBIKEPLANET.COM bears this out.

Interview: Ducati Corse World Superbike Man Davide Tardozzi
part two
by jim mcdermott

"Kawasaki is very good, Sanchini is doing very well and his bike is almost a stock bike, if Kawasaki decide to come with a factory bike I think it will be a problem for everybody."

OK so if the bike is capable of competing and even winning, who would ride it????

i would say that the bike is very capable of winning with factory support. and if they could get Eric of that Duc. 999 it would shake things up big time...

No doubt that would be great to see Kawi get back into the mix. Ten Kate Honda has shown that the new 4's have what it takes to smoke some the Ducati.

However, based on current rules, I'd say it's more likely that they would come to AMA first.

As much as I understand going to Ducati is the best career move for Bostrom to get a GP bike, it would be good to see him back. The ZX7 turned and handled, his current bike doesnt and you can see it. He would be winning on a ZX10, you can put money on that.
