scew the superfowl lets have an rc51 with 150 hp like the 999 or better yet a 1200 cc rc52 and put colin (did i say that, sorry colin) on the thing to kick bayliss's ass!

Hope not. Looks too much like a RR (either) I woulhave hoped they would give it a more unique look..

My favorite part is the extra doubled up frame rail that is a different color. That really makes the photo look good.

I'd rather see a new Hawk than a revised SuperHawk.

Think of how much better it would handle with 2 frames instead of 1!

Front end looks like an R6.

Kinda neat.

Very 1000RR looking, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. If that's a fake, someone did a nice job on it.

And as long as we're wishing, I'd like to see a liter twin get more than 100 miles to a tank.

That IS a fake, and is a horrible one at that.
It's just a 1000RR pic with the mid section of a SuperHawk layered over the top. Then they took and painted some black over the headlight and drew a stupid looking ram air intake on it. They didn't even bother to blend in the headlight line.
The frames are misaligned and both visible, the swingarm isn't attached to anything and the shock is plainly visible, yet it has a "Unit Pro-Link" swingarm.
That's not even up to par with Reuters' PhotoShop skills.

when it came up in hell knows when for the first time I remember it was looked like the CBR900RR. the headlights at least. Im not suprised.. this bike is not for 20 yo lads. its for serious biker whom likes to ride a bike for years and this design is meant to last for many years. they not gon change it

Vtrsp1-2foreva, did you check the age of the thread before posting?

I think as said above, it was just a fake with someone who has too much time and has Photoshop.

awrght... but its so realistic. I could imagine a nu vtr with this look..

yea whatever... I saw the posting. pretty old aint it

I guess I made a fool about myself

but anyway its nice. I like it.

THEN WHERE THE F*** IS THE NEW VTR THAN? OR THE SP?

Honda blew their R&D budget on the DN1. I don't think we'll see a new bike for some time.

not sure how realistic it is when its a 600rr nose and possibly front end, 1000rr tail and rear end, Superhawk (Firestorm) engine and mid fairing, and 2 frames. not sure where they swiped the lower fairing from though.
