    You won't have to worry about the looks, coz 1) you won't see it for long, and 2) the last thing on your mind when you wind open 300+ BHP will be what it looks like :D

    What exactly can you do with that Bike?

    I doubt it would pass many, if any Track Day noise tests?

    It's has no Race series it can enter?

    You can't run one on the road?


    So what do U do with it for ya £40K bar have a Chub over it?

    You,lol not see the R on the road the standard 200 bhp yes ,but as far as track and no catergory I think you will see a turbo class in the near future honda will follow suit they did have one out before,I would go as to say in the next 3 years there will be a class for these turbo bikes at the tt

    Not really, the RCV is as you correctly state, is a Road Bike, so can be used thus!

    The H2R is not suitable for the road and as it currently stands can not be used at all unless on a Private Track or at a Track Day that it can pass a noise test at of which I doubt it can as it currently stands.
