Ack Attack new motors?

I drove my roadster over to Sacramento last Saturday to go to the Autorama and as far as I was concerned the real high point of the trip was seeing Ack's bike and talking to Rocky. What a great guy!! Knowledgable and well spoken, really impressed me. Anyway Rocky was saying that Suzuki was coming out with a new motor for next year and that they are going to put them in the Ack Attack.
Ack give us a little lowdown on this change. Looks like there could be a few pretty powerful engines available next year as surplus from Ack.

I sure hope they don't follow Kawasaki's lead -- and make the motor something right near the bottom of the displacement class. When Kawi brought out the ZX14R -- with a 1352cc motor -- I groaned and knew our work was cut out for us. I would think Suzuki would at least give a thought or two to the class ending at 1650 and build something closer to the top. Who knows, though. . .?

They are already at 1340. A 1550 or 1640 busa, yeah thats what I'm talkin about.
But probably wishful thinking.
