All I know about the new Ducati's is they are fast and noisy. Last fall my buddy and I were riding the Tail of The Dragon and ran across some guys riding new Super Dukes. They were taking a lot of rest stops so we kept meeting up with them. At one point we had just rounded a corner and sen them coming around in our mirrors. We happened to be on one of the few long straights so we hammered down on our bikes. The Super Dukes could not catch us until we hit the curves again. My buddy had his Garman in his pocket and after the ride, it said he had hit a top speed of 123 MPH. I was riding my 1984 V65 Saber and my buddy was on a first-gen V Max.
