damn that site had some really pics under the photo gallery, the demo intro exhaust sounds really nice. i might have to save my pennies and try to buy one.
I think the new RSV4 looks the absolute muts in the black and red however looking at those photo's, it's going to be too small for me to take seriously as a road bike, though i'll reserve judgement until i see it for real. Looks like i'll be keeping my 02 R for a while yet
Hmmm as sexy as it looks I can't see myself getting one, where is the back end on it, also looks tiny!
Mind you I will reserve judgement until I've seen one in the flesh
According to MCN's write up yesterday the output is in the region of 180bhp but it is the weight that they were excited about since supposedly the RSV4 is 190kg fully fuelled, whereas the current Blade tips the scales at 215kg fully fuelled.
I see they also say the crank is a conventional 180 degrees with the pairs of pistons rising in equal intervals.
Would you believe that tail piece hides a cover for the pillion seat to be attached over the top of the rear "wings" and the pillion footpegs bolt underneath?
From the pictures i'm still trying to work out where the exhaust can strap actually attaches too on the road bike :dunno
I love the look of the bike (apart from the exhaust) but it's got 2 to many cylinders and costs £12k in the standard form, don't think so some how! Does make me wonder when you can get the 2008 RSVR for £7k, brand new. Wonder how much these will drop when they're not the latest thing?
