just came across this online, I'm sure some of you have already seen this but I thought others might find this interesting. definitely drool worthy.

thanks Eldert for the additional information, I guess they made him an offer he couldn't refuse. The article clearly makes it seem as though they reproduced the engine themselves with the approval of Ducati and their help with supplying the original drawings.
