[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1290166, member: 21926"] Are you sure? I don’t even think Checa’s SP superbike was wheelieng at 130 just banging gears, For sure, entering the front straight on some of the faster tracks, but the 1198 is running out of steam pretty quick after about 100. Sure, the liter bikes can wheelie over Ago’s leap (Isle of Man) at 130 1198s wheelie nicely through the first 2 gear changes laughably easy, 3rd gear isn’t a guarantee though but by that time, other liter bikes in the class from Suzuki, Honda, Kaw, brand-b, ... they’re leaving the 1198 for dead. I know; I’ve had both. The duc is nice, super light weight and handles better than anything of its era, but it’s prohibitively expensive to get the 1198 crankshaft hp equal to the rwhp of even the lowly Honda, much less the euro spec 10r, or brand b superbikes. Plus, the fueling on the Duc superbikes is atrocious, owing to them not being willing to properly sort out the emissions compliant fueling at all and barely consider anything below 4500 rpms. - are they still getting away with delivering their press fleet bikes with the race maps and aftermarket exhausts installed? The moto-rags don’t let other manufacturers do that and get away with it without comment, but Ducati gets a free pass for some reason. Probably because their bikes are gorgeous. But anyway, I was suspecting something like @03Darin was reporting with the steady state throttle making micro adjustments, along with the timing being pulled or some other outside factor. I don’t think the Rap cuts out that aggressively for timing retard, but it does with stability control/traction control. It tries really hard to keep you from getting sideways [/QUOTE]
