NinjaDoc Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Will start saving from right now as its gonna be lots of green if and when it comes out. But will be a nice transition from my current ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mello dude Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Seems to be an annual rumor on the VFR forums. Hope its true, but the classic line goes - I'll believe it when I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Shoot. I'd even expect the production engine to spin off a standard and a cruiser with torque and more torque. Got to love a V-4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 RC51 v2.0 or bust. V2>>V4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 I do like the grumble of a twin...I also like the buttery smooth acceleration of my I-4I'm kinda thinking a v4 could either be the best of both worlds or the worst of both....

r1crusher Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 The typical chop of a CBR1000 w/ an RC51.Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_c_F Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 I'd prefer they drop the new VFR1200 engine into the CB1100 chassis and call it a day... bring back the real Sabre please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gump Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 V-4 seems like a downgrade. From a i4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cOoTeR Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 There have been rumors about this for awhile now. Last I heard it was going to be pretty pricey but I've wanted to give one a try for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnone Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 I'm hoping for this bike to be a 200+ HP V4 that has a full electronics package, race ABS and light weight. Something better than my 1199. I went and put a small deposit down on the potential one earlier this year, just in case Honda builds one and I can swing paying for it. I didn't want to miss out. I had a '00 RC51 when it first hit our shores. I was first in line at the dealer for that, but it was much cheaper than this one probably will be.But as many have pointed out, the rumors have been flying for years. But, patent filings could be linked to this coming true.Biggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fireman_343 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 My next bike.... Love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinci-King Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) Honda discussed it at one of the last Moto GP events this year. Hopefully it will morph into an affordable production bike for the rest of us.http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/honda-v4-sport-bike/ Edited December 11, 2012 by Cinci-King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
