only reason i could see for an 800 line would be motogp reps and when everyone is pulling out for wsbk as fast as they possibly can theres really not a whole lot of hope there.

Yeah I'm sure with all vehicle sales in the shitter yamaha is going to come out with something to compete in a niche market segment...

and the photochop job is shitty, too.

I'll believe it when I see it.

so lemme get this straight:

R6 = 600cc
R1 = 1,000cc
... wtf is an R8 then? If there's anything coming out, I doubt they'd call it an R8 if they want to keep things traditional...

Um... an R7 was the 750cc bike... If they ever come out with a 'Busa style bike, it'll be the R12/13/14/15 or whatever guaranteed!
