There was some bad comments about them regarding not replying to emails generally. 200bhp is not be sniffed at.

Certainly an interesting read, but they do lean towards asking you not to bother them unless your actually going to buy a kit.

I'm not suprised emails are not replied to if the rumour is true.

Gotta be a fun bike to ride tho.

Interesting and at times entertaining read.

Left me feeling a bit `so what` though, I mean you can make a Mitsubishi Evo out accelerate a Ferrari with little outlay, but I know which one I would rather have in my garage.
I`am only guessing, but I suspect not one of those embarrased Ducati riders went out and bought an RT and turbo kit.. :wink:
