It sounds very much like the new Honda V4 1000 road bike will be out next year . Once its on the track I think Ducati can forget about winning anything with a V twin ever again . Roll on a production V 4 Ducati I would hope .
Is this the 'RCV-replica' replacement for the Fireblade that MCN have been touting ever since MotoGP went four stroke? If it is, I'll believe it when I see it.
If it looks like that, it better hadn't cost 90 large! Wow - that's a stinker. Magazines will do anything for copy.....
It's not fireblade replacement they will still make the blade this bike will be very exclusive like a modern day nr750 I reckon
just a simple question............has any one of the sources actually seen the real thing?, cos if not i might as well draw RCV on the side of a fag packet.
Think Honda will have learnt its error of overpricing with the NR750 . Theres rumours of new ones still lingering at the factory . If they want to race the new V4 in wsb , which they will , they will have to sell a lot of them so they will have to be cheap enough . My guess will be in the £25 to £30 k bracket .
wasnt the nr750 a brave concept sort of bike oval pistons. twin conrods per piston. 8 valves per cyclinder. a few good videos on you tube on the nr.
I think this is a case of Honda having a tinkle on the ducati and BMW bonfires with there trick hp4's and 1199r's. they just want to show who's boss regardless of cost
