Yes! yes!  Now the AMA can concentrate on the truly important issues...  like defending some moron's right to ride in flip-flops and without a helmet.
They ride with helmets,        strapped to their tail section.lol

As a youth, I was involved in the shooting sports.  I even spent a summer at the NRA's  Wittington Center in Raton, NM.  That was before the NRA's Institute for Legislative Action was heavily involve in politics.  For 150 years, the NRA sanctioned competetive shooting (including Olympic athletes), taught firearms safety, and offered special training to Police and Military.  In fact, the NRA still does all this stuff, but their reputation has been overshadowed by their lobbying efforts. 

Is the AMA headed in the same direction?  Motorcycling will never be as controversial as private firearms ownership, but by concentrating on politics instead of safety training and racing- they're loosing their fundamental direction.  Selling off the AMA-Superbike brand was a complete dereliction of duty by the AMA directors.
