Can you plot a graph of torque versue velocity? Those bikes are not geared the same.

Buddy of mine has a 749S. He used to tell me how tall geared his Ducati was. So he got a rear sprocket with 2 extra teeth. What a joke. Even with that new gearing the thing can barely pull it's weight into a headwind at highway speeds. Accelerate? Sure, just like a 600 I-4. Get busy with the gearbox and scream the motor.

I disagree.. it's not as good as the old MO, which had already turned pretty crapy. This is weak, very weak.
