[QUOTE="weimedog, post: 153341, member: 20655"] I doubt the talk about the Honda will be ALL hype..there will be SOME hype as that is the way of the marketing world. By bet is this new Honda will be at least a match for anything out there because Honda's basic attitude towards building race bike will make it that way before they go into production. Honda is a very conservative company and will NOT go to market with an inferior race bike. Not their style. You can argue the first generation Aluminum frames were a bad move. They were different but not as bad as all the...HYPE. LaRocco was getting the same kind of results with those first and second Generation Aluminum framed CR's as he's getting now. Look at those Kawasaki's, if you were to believe all you read about those old frames / chassis designs, they wouldn't be able to win any race much less championships! That chassis has been around for EVER! From the look of that Honda I also bet they focused on lowering the Center of Gravity. A lower CG combined with a lower weight will give it a chance to set new handling standards that Yamaha will have to change their frame design to achieve. :) (Of course I've been a Honda Bigot for ever and therefore think the Yamaha's are nice but are the most oversold and hyped bike ever! :p ) [/QUOTE]
