Seems to be the case at the moment. Suzuki have indicated that they intend to quit MotoGP at the end of 22.

Sports bike sales are irrelevant now. Perhaps they should have MOTO GS!

I had previously removed the halogen bulb and replaced it with a LED, not wanting to be outshone by all the super bright headlamps we see on todays roads. fail. ...
