Mines arriving next week...

Having seen some of the bits of one at the weekend, the frame and engine are seriously different to the previous iterations. The engine's quite a lot bigger and heavier, almost like going backwards ten years or more, just looking at external appearances, but inside it they appear to have been beefing stuff up quite a lot, probably to cope with the additional vibration generated from the new crank arrangement. I dare say that Mostly Contrived Nonsense managed to insert the word "Rossi" into every sentence about three or four times didn't they...? It's bound to be the best bike ever made ever ever ever, until they test the next new model in a few weeks.... t0ssers
