Ever since Troy Bayliss retired at the end of 2008 he has worked for Ducati a image man and test/ development rider especially on the 1199 Panigale, but after last weekend’s World Ducati Week the former three-time World Superbike champion has decided to say good–bye to the Italian manufacturer with this tweet to all his fans, “Home bound tomorrow , pretty happy, let every one know I will not test again, time for a change, don’t want to hang around like bad smell.
”According to some wild rumors floating around Italy, the reason that Bayliss decided to quit was that he is still upset regarding the WSBK Effenbert Liberty wildcard ride that he wanted to do at the opening round of the season at Phillip Island, but was shot down because of “political reasons.
”Whatever the reasons behind his latest decision, the Australian is known to change his mind pretty often so we expect to see him back.
