Maybe the new hopped up 1098. But no way the standard puts down 90.

Right off the Ducati site:

90.4 lb-ft @ 8000rpm (At the wheel of course)

And thats the standard 1098, not the 1098R ,that puts down 99.1lb-ft @ 7750rpm

Thats impressive. I'd like to see a dyno sheet. Have you ridden one?

Me too, No I haven't ridden one, but I'd love to. I have a Demo set up to ride the 848 in the spring.

NICE! That thing sounds like a great bike. The SR article about it says it is way easier to ride than the 1098. I want to ride a Hypermotard. Those are insane.

I saw one sitting right next to the 848 at the bike show this weekend. Very nice. I dont really know anything about them, but I'd ride one given the chance.

I sat on one...never rode. They are small. And tall. It's almost like nothing is there. Wide bars. Would probly have tremendous leverage. But I'm the same height as you and I can't flat foot at all.
