honda and suzuki race layouts that have jack diddely shit to do with their production lines. to my mind that means that any technology or lessons learned are either NOT being passed down or are passed less efficiently to production bikes. yami' is aping their prototype with a crossplane crank, ducati has the desmo and kawi was at least testing a screamer crank.

dont take this as me bashing the cbr1000rr or gsxr 1000 i think they are both excellent machines, but couldnt an rvf or gsv-r 1000 be better?
