Thats pretty crazy that it has that much more hp and tq than the yz450f and is lighter. Its gonna be a beast. That being said the 450s are plenty fast enough, I believe the real game changer is going to be the 250f. 8 more hp and 6 more ft lbs on a stock 250f would be insane. Cant wait to see the numbers on that bike when it comes out. I think the triumph is a great bike and they really did a great job coming right out with a competitive bike right out the gate. That being...

Love your analogy. Absolutely correct. They claim this is the first TC based on rear wheel data. Unlike a car where each wheel has to be individually monitored, they could get rear-wheel speed simply off of crank speed and transmission position. Ducati has always had impressive electronics and I'm very curious to see how they tackle this. I've always thought it wasn't an issue of getting rear wheel speed data but rather understanding what the rest of the bike is doing so it doesn't cut power every time the rear wheel starts spinning up because it could be from loosing...

So funny I’ve ridden mx34 and Pirelli mx32 back to back same bike and I think the Pirelli is massively better tire. The mx34 breaks loose on corner exit at 5% throttle without warning to me, where the Pirelli can take so much more throttle without breaking loose.

I have to admit it’s impressive. It will be interesting to see how the on track performance plays out. I can see quite a few holeshots being pulled.

Wanted to create a new thread to discuss the specs of the bike. 63.5 hp at 231 pounds (without fuel) sounds insane to me. With all that power, I'm surprised they went with a 110 rear tire but Ducati knows more than I do. But seriously, what's not to love? Brembo brakes and clutch, Showa suspension, magnesium covers, tuning via WiFi module and app, and the price point is much less than originally expected. Can't wait to see it in person and hear some reviews.

I have used a lot of different engine builders and I would highly recommend RaceTech. Andrew is ridiculously knowledgeable and we have had really positive results with our engine program since we began working with them. Their approach is to build usable power that will last, not just some inflated horsepower number that is counterproductive to the end goal of making you faster. I know there are some great options out there but RaceTech is a very solid choice if you want to make positive changes that are reliable in my opinion.
