I've already asked this question, and although I received some interesting responses, none of them addressed what I was trying to find out:

Other than the different swingarm and modified fairing, are there any real differences between the two model years?

Looking over web articles and the current Ducati USA site, it seems that an '06 is rated at 116 hp (crank) and I believe some articles state that the '04 is rated at 110. I already know that I shouldn't "pinch pennies" and that I should keep my MV, but what I would like to know is if there are any differences between the two model years.

Point taken - next time I'll be more careful delineating:

"Other than the different swingarm and modified fairing, are there any real differences between the two model years?"

I seem to recall an article or two that actually described a small hp jump from '04 to '05 - I doubt it'd be noticeable, (to me), but I was just trying to get an idea of how the two might vary in selling price when the inevitable day arrives when I want to unload it (I loved my MV, but I'm already kind of tired of the 4-cylinder motor).

How to Delete?

(you can delete your own threads, btw)

Thanks, but I haven't figured out a way to do that. I'd also read that Ducati changed the way they measured hp, but I was still hoping for a authoritative answer (based on what I'd previously read).

Btw - you expressed an interest in my Brutale, as I recall. I traded my S4R in on it, and found I really missed the v-twin. I'd ride one if I were you - they're pretty frantic at freeway speeds (I raised the gearing on mine, but I haven't been able to get used to it). Around town, it's great, but after 10 miles or so at freeway speeds I'm looking for an exit.

Thanks, but as a newbie I'm apparently not granted that option yet.
