Apparently Bautista says its virtually the same bike he racing this year. That will be expensive but what a machine...

Don't think it will pass Euro 4. :D

That's why Honda have said the RCV roadbike wont be sold beyond the end of next year.

That's true good point Duke.

This has to be golden era for sportsbike. There is so much choice and quality kit. I really wouldn't know where to spend my money at the moment if I was shopping for a new bike.
