I dougbt they will strip him of the win, maybe points, maybe fines, but that's probably it.

Based on the news briefs on the AMA website:

"Race dominator Josh Hayes was disqualified following the post-race inspection, handing the win over Welsh rider Chaz Davies, bumping his teammate, Steve Rapp, up to second, and handing Larry Pegram the final spot on the (retroactively imagined) podium in his first ride on the Ducati 848." And if you look at the results, Hayes has been dropped with Davies now shown in 1st.

If I read the rules and news correctly, it wasn't the polishing that was the issue,"Upon this inspection, a technical infraction was found. The #1 Erion Racing Honda CBR600RR

should have finished off "crankshaft was polished, surface treated and metal was removed from it."
