As much as I like Rea and Sykes... having these guys this dominant during the series is making the races a bit meh for me.

I hate it when guys crash, but that's been the most exciting part lately. |

I remember a few years ago we tuned into WSBK because that's were the real racing was. Now, MotoGP is by far the more exciting series.

I'm going to hazard a guess that the left pipe goes to the horizontal cylinder and is longer, therefore requiring a larger pipe to maintain the same back-pressure as the shorter right side pipe coming from the vertical cylinder.
Although, I also see what appears to be an electronic flapper on the left exhaust, so it could just use the right side pipe for lower engine loads and then open to the left on higher RPM's (and the pipes are actually joined). Might smooth out the power curve and help with the stability of the bike compared to the stock style exhaust they used to run under the bike.
OR, I could be completely wrong, and the Ducati WSBK engineers who are much smarter than me know what they're doing.

That seems like an awfully good guess; I'd originally thought the carbon fiber contraption on the left pipe was a sensor, but you're right - it's too big & has too much power (or maybe even cable housings) running to it to be that.

I keep waiting on more news about next years Fireblade. I think Nicky is going to kick some serious butt when that bike gets out.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.
