Re: More on Yamaha
There are several important distinctions between SuperBike and GP 4-strokes.
1) Weight limits
2) Manufacturing content
The weight limits for GP 4-strokes is considerably less than for SuperBikes.
The engines/transmissions must not be derived from engines/trannies currently in manufacture.
What this is is a series for the 3/4/5 cylinder 4-strokes to hide from the 2 cylinder SuperBikes.
I don't really think we need more HP or less weight than the R1/GSRX1000 for road use. But if someone is there to buy it--Hey, its a free country!
