Desmosedici RR V\'s NCR Millona

Ok, you're a minted geeza(ess) and you're looking for a new plaything. Cash is no object and you're thinking you'll have a toy for track days.

You've narrowed the choice down to a Desmosedici RR and the NCR Poggipolini Millona (also see here under reviews)

The 'sedici is rumoured to have 200 bhp and weighs 170kg's and costs 50,000 euro.

The Millona (One Shot version) has 105 (or maybe more) bhp and weighs 120kg's and costs 37,000 euro.

Which one do you choose and why? Don't forget the why!!!

PS - I've voted NCR at this stage, because I'm scared of a bike with a genuine 200bhp and the NCR would still be an absolute weapon.

Got to be the NCR-it has enough power and only weighs 120kg-that's lighter than my little Gilera Saturno and with nearly 3 times the power-gimme, gimme, gimme!
same as you really Tony, I would be frightened of the Sedici lovely though it is-the NCR I could RIDE.

John-now where's my lottery ticket?

NCR. 2v, you could crash and wouldn't need to comiit suicide, it doesn't look that special but would demolish the opposition, it's just gorgeous....

NCR - enough power, light weight.

I couldn't handle 200bhp.
