Default Yamaha's new FZ8 - anyone else keen?

Morning all.

So does anyone else have high hopes for Yamahas new FZ8? Okay so the teaser pic confirms to the usual motor industry "show 'em nowt of import" mandate, but the idea of a proper Yamaha attack on the Z750/Street Triple segment sounds promising.

Be great to see a suspension and braking package somewhere between the current FZR and R6 models, good adjustability and performance without being too costly.

What do you reckon the motor is based on? Bored/stroked existing unit or an all new 750 - 800cc engine? That engine size should offer a change of good roll on power from down low with a decent frothy top end.

Here's hoping they get it right.
