| Looking at the gestation period for the classics (over a year if I remember) and the hypermotard (not due until 2007) we'll not likely see a new superbike until 2008 unless the WSB regs for next year allow 1200cc v-twins, which may force thier hand a little. As to the looks of the artist lashup, hmmm lets bolt a fireplace front on a 999 rear that'll work. The 916 look was of an era, single sided swingers probably have too many disadvantages to be used again in WSB (wieght being 1) . I doubt they'd chance making it look to jap or too old (thats what the classics are for). But wad do I know, that said I think the 999 is now one of the best looking sports bikes out currently (that u can buy new now without fear of the factory folding) |
