no no!  That wasn't intended, please don't take it that way. 

I've been down the road I described MANY times, I just won't let it happen again.

i know, and no offense taken!  kind of a tongue in cheek thing over here for me seeing in the garage!

It would be alive and running by now had I not invested in a real heap of a 900 to practice my fixxer-upper skills.

My 1098 R weighs 363 lbs. dry @ 175 RWHP w, full race Termi and DP ECU

That's 2.07 lbs. per 1 hp

The JHP bike is 2.5 lbs. per 1 hp

I bet the JHP bike costs more than my R cost new ,which was MSRP $40,000 +tax and fees.

It's more fun to ride a slow bike fast, than a fast bike slow.

I'm sure there are those that can't put that much power to good use ....I'm not one of them.

I ride to the edge ...not sayin' there aren't faster riders on the road.

Wet weight, we don't drive them dry. 1 gallon of gas weighs (6lbs) 4qts of oil (?) plus battery. Now do the math.

knowing Douglas the way I do, if it is "dry", that means without gas in it, otherwise ready to go.

You should try to get a real world weight. I'm not bagging on your R...it is definitely a light bike. But Ducati is very optimistic in their weights (as Cycleworld proved with the MTS1200 recently), and their definition of dry likely doesn't even include a battery being in the bike.

Besides all that, I'd still take a 120hp 320lb (wet) bike over a 170 hp 400 lb (wet) bike. It should be significantly quicker handling due to the much lower weight.  waytogo

also, you can make a fat bike scoot w/ more power, but you can't hide that weight from the brakes.

The manufacturers are very optimistic about their weight and hp/torque ratings.  I like Motorcycle Consumer News because they do their own measurements. They have an 2008 1098S listed at 434 lbs wet with 138 rwhp.
