It's basically a bunch of parts from other bikes to look like a new one with some artistic flare.
Yep

[x] Same old standard template
[x] CBR6 front end
[x] ridiculous seat unit used on a few other mock ups
[x] oops best stick a shock in too, even if its on a funny angle

Dont get me wrong i hope it would come about but i wont hold my breath on it looking like that - remember the VFR1200 ? :o

I would be very dissapointed if the big H came out with something that looked like that, i`m sure they would design something stunning and i would be at the front the queue with a deposit.

Rumours are on for few years now...it started somewhere mid '07, but then the crisis struck worldwide.
Seeing Aprilia gets the world title '10 with a nice, good well balanced machine with great V4 engine, the (al)mighty H from the rising sun needs to evolve and should get their V4-work of soo many years back to Japan. Hard job. This mock-up is okay, but I prefer a new front fairing that should have the Suzuka style one headlight on the left hand side. Hopefully affordable. Start saving me one if they decide to go for it.

Oz mags are reporting a V4 1000cc honda sports to be released in 2012. It will be built to be eligible to race in proddy motogp litre class, and most likely the price tag will refelect that.

Personally, I have no doubt that this bike will be made. I doubt it look much like the artists impression.
