1000ccs are just too much power.

I've raced less than a handful of times in my life, but I do know, when you're in second, there's no such thing as too much power.

The critical thing is being able to access all the power. Delivery and traction are the key. The 800s are so powerful they need lots of electronics, but hell so are WSBK engines. 1000s will be the same as the 800s unless they work out an agreement on a spec ECU. They will be however more reliable, thus cheaper to field, maybe bumping up the number of bikes on the grid.
