Not saying I wouldn't sell a kidney if it really did happen, but these rumors have been flying pretty much since the demise of the RC45. |

The cost still at about $50K USD but when you factor in that the 1198 R in 2010 sold for $40K, the Desmo sold for $65K this bike is a bargin. Also only 2000 models will be produced. |

The new bike will probably end up being the WSBK entry for 2014. They briefly mentioned this during the race at Portugal. |

Could I afford to insure, maintain, and fix one at a regular basis, since it would be my main ride and be ridden on the street and track? I would not want to. It will be good to see what Honda comes up with though. |
