    R8

    Could be a repost but here it is. Just a concept I think but pretty sick none the less. This pic has been around for some time now so most of you may have seen it already.

    I like the lines of the bike, but not the graphics. Give me yellow Yamahaha colors or... give me something else.

    That's one of the things I really like about this bike, the foggy look in the red. Didn't the older YZF 750 have that effect in the back of the yellow or purple in '95?

    Re: R8

    nah, PB does the "What If" section on the last page of their publications. it's basically a design/engineering exercise w/ photoshop, saying "well what if Honda decided to make a CBR800RR. i think it would look like this, and use these parts." they did a "What If" for a modern Suzuki RG500, and also one for a Triumph Daytona 1050 that looked pretty sick.

    unfortunately, it's just the musings of some sportbike/photoshop nut, and has absolutely no connection to any of the factories. still fun to think about, though.
