 the engine spec seems particularly good, but there's a few of the chassis details i'd change.

That Honda prototype is lovely (imho), but the use of the venerable RFVC motor doesn't hint at the sort of performance that Yamaha got from the SZR660.

Neat use of an XR400 oil cooler in the fairing nose.

48bhp SZR........i know that the latest incarnation of the xbr engine is only 43bhp because of emisions. its in the fmx super moto. nice but not my cup of tea im a cafe racer kind. as for the honda i love it!!! and if they did produce it i would consider buying one.....!!! im sure alot of tweeking could be done to get the horses that you want. but its just gorgeous!!!

the problem i have is i dont like the look of water cooled motors? the aircooled units are far better looking and give you a real feel of motorcycleing, that and they are cheap to maintain and to rebuild!!!
