That segment of the show, John Haywood (the interviewee) is discussing his research into inefficiencies in engine design due to friction.  As Desmodromic engines are unique to Ducatis, I'm going to assume that he's studying the friction characteristics of desmo L-twins.

I just shot him an email to see if he'd be willing to contribute anything that our community may find interesting.

Email response from John Heywood:
QuoteWe don't have a Ducati in our Sloan Auto Lab, nor are we evaluating one.

I'm pretty sure he's wrong.  wtf.

I just referred him to Drew's screenshot.  I'm not expecting much.
