They don't make a bad race bike either.

IIRC, it was 2 years ago that BLS said the V2 was dead.

Well, last year they again dominated the Constructor's Championship with their "dead" V2....

1st = Ducati = 570 points
2nd = Yamaha = 487 points

And the predictions continued....

and again this year, Ducati dominated the Constructor's Championship....

1st = Ducati = 572 points
2nd = Yamaha = 505 points.

AND the V2 is still restricted with intake venturi size and weight penalties and various other restrictions compared to the fours.

It's not over yet....and WHAT a street bike.
