Desmoquattro motors are a bit more 'powerbandy' then Desmodue. They also feel a bit less 'lumpy'.
They don't pull so strongly from 2K RPM, if you want to really get up and go you need them over about 5K RPM, then about the RPM a DD is running out of steam, the DQ comes 'on cam' and your world gets blurred. Quite a different ride (and riding style).
