"Seriously, kpaul expects 1000cc to continue for awhile till we see a move to 800 cc V-4s*."



Why 800 cc V-4s? What is so magical about this combination?



"Now that folks have seen the light.. a golden era of V-4s is about to begin."



The V-4 Interceptors came out in - what - 1983? V-Fours have had over twenty years to become the preferred engine configuration. They haven't. Why will that change?

"Go to motogp.com (V-4s dominate motogp)"

What influence does MotoGP have on streetbike engine configuration?

"and aprilia.com to see Aprilia's new V-4 superbike"

Oh, well, if Aprilia is making a V-4 sportbike, then I take it all back. This changes everything.

Re: Well it didn't take long. kpaul's short rebuttal

"Why 800cc V-4s? (schizuki and pdad the ever clueless ones asked this question) Goto motogp.com and find the answer."

What influence does MotoGP engine configuration have on streetbikes?

"The first evidence that V-4 are going to dominate superbike comes from THE APRILIA V4 RACE MACHINE ENGINE – A CLOSER LOOK"

No, kpaul, that is not evidence that V-4's are going to dominate Superbike racing. That is evidence that Aprilia is building a V-4.

You continue to cite things that have not happened yet as evidence of your tiresome predictions. You are cementing your reputation as the Great Motorcycle-prediction Premature-ejaculator.

Your diagram has skidmarks all over it from where you pulled it.

Re: This intelligent post of LightninRVF750 needs more visibility

And look at all the V-4 street sportbikes they spawned!

Just like the Honda RCV 211V V-5 in MotoGP spawned the current V-5 revolution!

The technology trickles down!

Gen-Y!

Re: Excellent Point Thanks

"As long as someone gives me credit for it.. "

That's very important for you, isn't it?

I'm just baffled by all of this tiresome "prediction" stuff. What void does it fill in kpaul's life to bloviate about what may or may not happen, bring these things up ad nauseum, then loudly crow whenever something in real life crops up that might some day in some way somehow make some part of some prediction of his somewhat correct?

I literally don't know anyone else who engages in this. It's like watching a toddler get excited about a turd he just dropped in his training potty.

"Excellent use of facts and data LightninRVF750 you are my hero"

Honda's, too. Right now they're smacking themselves on the heads saying, "Damn, we had the perfect engine configuration, and we just arbitrarily dropped it! What were we thinking?!?"

Re: Talk about faulty logic read this and then read my response to seruzawa

kpaul, why do you always link to posts that have nothing to do with what's been said? Take you Ritalin.

Re: Thanks for the constructive criticism

Yeah, it was so perfect they dropped it.

God, your tinfoil hat is so heavily alloyed with retardium that it's impervious to cluebats.

Well, that tears it. You're in the GPTB now.
