There are computer generated images of a rumored V5, 1200cc Blackbird/VFR, and there are several other threads that talk about that... |

V5 Blackbird...
So many rumors going around and it is still summer! I can hardly wait to see what rumors and concepts will pop up during winter. |

GB | I'm back. The supposedly picture is in fact a prototype drawing but it still is gorgeous  . The caption mentions the CBX1600XX V-six 520lbs. 200HP 340km/h (approx 205mph)
you can see it at http://map.free.fr/prototyp.htm
You'll se images of the 50 unit limited production V&M Racing Honda CBR 1200 XX created for Honda UK for the 50th anniversary.
You'll also see the V-six prototype of the CBX1600XX  If it ever becones available, I'll be the first one to place my order
As for the CBX 25 years ago which became the first 100HP bike, this one would become the first 200HP bike. Sounds good to me.

| Re: New Balckbird 1600CC?? I'm scared for the next blackbird to come out. Scared that I'll be forced to buy one. ****.
Am I old enough to want a big ridiculously powerful sporty sport-touring rig? |

Am I old enough to want a big ridiculously powerful sporty sport-touring rig? | Another misconception I don't understand, people call Blackbirds Sport Tourers, all sport tourers have a ST designation, Blackbirds are CBR's and were always listed on the Honda website under sport bikes at the top of the list  minor technicality I reckon. Busas and ZX12s are listed on their sites as sport bikes,  Poor Ole Blackbird don't get no respect  , and now gone forever. Honda won't call the next hot rod a Blackbird, it's gonna be a CBR????XX Fireblade.
