Interesting take on the DMG/factory battle for control by an "unnamed insider" here
“What’s behind this discord is that the manufacturers have lost control, and they’ve lost control to a company that’s got a whole lot of money and knows how to run a racing series"
Yup. That looks like it in a nutshell. There's some discussion about how American tracks don't suit literbikes, but literbikes are what the distributors want to sell, and that the distributors have to persuade the factory to make bikes that work in their particular market, while the factory wants to make bikes that work everywhere.
