The R1200S a "donkey" compared to a Ducati or Aprilla? First, compare apples to apples. The BMW is an air-cooled engine, both the Ducati and Aprilla are liquid cooled. You should be comparing the Ducati and Aprilla to a Suzuki Hayabusa and a Honda Blackbird. Engineering-wise, the Ducati and Aprilla log in at #3 & #4. In brute, mind-numbing acceleration and top end speed, the Ducati and Aprilla are...#3  by an even wider margin. As in a couple of one-legged men in a butt-kicking contest. That said, I personally like BMW donkeys.
