I thought both engines were made in Europe? Also, the Ducati does not have scoops, it's not the same class. : )

I just thought they would step up more...That's just not gonna cut it! We're looking at what, a 30+ HP difference?

Just wait, the H2O L-twin should not be too far behind.

Rob - it's only using the 2-valve motor. I'd wait until the 4 valver shows up to make a real comparison. The current one is making 130hp.

The 1125s should be aiming higher than the air-cooled monster range.
That's the poverty pack ducati.

Not fond of the restyling on the monster series either. Looks less "monster" and more Fisher Price.

The Italian I wouldn't mind seeing stacked up against the Buell 1125R/CR is the Moto Morini Corsaro range.
