He said "it's a good value"?

Hrrmph! Good value in a Ducati? Why back in my day Ducatis were overpriced, and we liked it that way!

I was so shocked by this statement that my monocle fell out.

Mine was going to be inexpensive but after the bandits in Mongolia stole the 796 and the Sherpas had to go back to Italy to get another one, it's probably going to cost a little more. Not to mention that several Sherpas were killed in the raid and I have to pay their kin $500 each in compensation.

The big question is, what's the weight diff b/t the big and little 'tards?  A much lighter bike would be cool, whereas same weight but less HP, not so much.

A dry weight of just 167kg (368lb) and seat height of 825mm (32.5in)

Versus 395lb and a 33.27in seat height.
