Thats very true but there are not many cars that produce over 100hp per litre!
Ducati belts are shorter and narrower than most car belts and run around smaller diameter pullys which doesn't help. Plus the engines rev to 11,000 ish which most cars don't!!
I've no idea why Ducati use belts. Maybe becasue its cheaper and easier to design a belt system than a chain system.
