    The torque and power come on immediately with a blip of the throttle. I have never known such savagery. To my surprise it was docile during my commute too. It's a stallion.

    that one guy said that the 1190 had not been updated for two years vs the Ducati.. not sure that's accurate. i thought they tweaked the new traction control and little things here and there... but anyway, what would you ever need to change on one?... 99% of the guys out there wont be able to out-ride that bike.. all this talk is making me consider getting a 1190.. my local Harley has 2014s sitting in crates in storage. wonder what they want for them?

    haven't seen anything written if any changes have been made as of yet, guy posted an old video of the shoot out of the EBR and Duc. he also went on to talk about the aftermarket parts and any support for them...those die hard Yamaha guys confuse me
