Look at the story about the V5 VFR, its been a while since they brought that up and last time it was a V5 blackbird, before that a V5 Fireblade, before that a V5 RC211V road bike, and before that a V5 VFR.

True. I was thinking about naked bikes tbh. I want a speed triple - put it that way. That's a PROPER bike!

Ah - an MCN mockup! Not quite conviced- though I'm sure a streetbike with a detuned 1098 or 848 engine would be sweeeeet!


- derail- V5's aside, if Honda resurrected the NC30 like they did with the CB-1, there'd be a lot of very happy bikers about!

Looks like they've just copied Aprilia's latest range of bikes. Which is ok - as Aprilia are moving on too... The FV2 which is way out there.



As the Tuono is being fazed out - it will be soon be back as an RSV4... looking forward to seeing the mock up in MCN soon
