    I will wait until I see it, these rumors and patent plans have been doing the rounds
    every year since 05, hopefully they do make it.

    If they want a V4 supersport bike, can they not just take the VRF engine, tune it up a bit and stick it in a blade frame? Why is it gonna be £40k+

    It's not going to be Desmo money IMO, more like 75 grand!

    Do you feel cheated? I do! To think it's going to be what it is but I will never be able to afford one :( mind you I was lucky and a mate let me ride his D16 a number of times, the memory will last for ever! Maybe some nice plush mate will buy an RCV and let me bikemad have a go so I can live the dream!

    So why cheated you ask, well I'd rather Mr Honda make a V4 superbike that fits along side the CBR and fits the price range us normal people can squeeze into our lives, I don't give a shite what Brad Pitt can afford or the likes of that twat beeeeber I want to dream of possibilities not the impossible I like to look at the moon but I ain't ever gonna be able to go there....mind you I do own a acre of land on it.....lol

    the problem with the likes of the vfr engines and others like it is
    the weight of the damn thing.thats why they need to build one
    from scratch because if its a big heavy lump that then slows its
    cornering ability down it wont do well in reviews/tests.Ideal world
    would have the gear driven cams in the v4 but again thats more weight.
