Re: Uh?

"In any case, bikes achieve high power from small(ish) engines by revving a lot higher, that in turn places more stress on components that need to be more carefully engineered / have better quality materials than car engines that redline at 6 or 7k.... which is probably why the Ducati costs almost £13k, more than quite a few small cars"

And the reason that your Ducati which weighs about 1/5 of the Fiat can only get half the MPG.
