Rumors out of Spain say that Honda will reveal an all new VFR1000 this Septmeber to replace the VFR800. This has been rumored for the past several years, although the latest rumor is that the latest in the line of the infamous VFR brand will be powered by a 990cc V5 powerplant modeled after the RC211V. The article goes on to say the nex-gen VFR will feature state of the art electronics. Traction Control finally making it's way to production motorcycles? Check out the story here.



I'm not big on sport tourers but fuck, I'd love to have a go on anything with that motor.

Pic no worky.

No a GT guy, but a V-5 is huge, massive power.

Plus, it ain't a Hayabuser as well.
