... old news, but tripped over this, Hmm food for thought No? Honda: V4 revival in 2008-2009! According to Spanish website Solomoto, we may see a resurgence of Honda’s legendary V4-powered bikes over the next two years. While the 1980s and 90s V4 Honda RC30 and RC45 are considered to be all-time performance bike greats, the current VFR800 sports-tourer simply isn’t in the same league. Its variable-valve-timing (VTEC) system has been criticized for its erratic performance, and the bike has steadily lost ground to newer, more sophisticated rivals. Honda are now expected to build a non-VTEC, 1000cc V4 which will power their new VFR1000 sports-tourer. And unlike the existing VFR800, the new bike is likely to have USD forks at front, Honda’s Unit ProLink system at the back, and radially-mounted brakes with ABS
So now the hard part; do I sell the '07 now, before everybody sells their VFR to get a new one? Or do I wait to see if Honda really does this? Decisions, decisions... Just think; if Ducati proposes something similar, there might be a glut of 1098's on the market... Couldn't resist, bud!
hasn't everyone been saying this for a few yrs now... i dont need a liter bike just shave some pounds off the porky girl and update looks a little and go back to analog dash and ill be happy. oh...usd forks would be nice to
