I believe one of the motorcycle mags did a review that included both of these bikes. I think the Ducati won performance-wise, but a lot of the reviewers really liked the Buell and felt you couldn't beat the price.

there's a test out there somewhere where they compared the 2...

if i'm not mistaking the duc is more powerfull, but the buell is more usefull which showed in laptimes.

yes, the riders all agreed that they liked the duck for race purposes, and was an all around faster bike, but most of them agreed that the "fun factor" of the CR was too much to pass on. They agreed that, for the money, they would buy the CR.

The less accomplished racers liked the duc better; the older racers in the article liked the buell better.

alright, thanks for the info, the duck is faster, expensive, and buell is fun, decently priced.

ahh, buell wins hands down. :D.. for my taste.

Just got back from the Duc dealer...That Streetfighter is a sexy machine!! Don't get me wrong, I love my XB12S, but if I ever look to "move up" I will definitely be investigating this bike! By that time, I might be able to afford a used one?!?!?!?:D
