OMG, the price is ridiculous.



From the article:
The RC213V is a machine exclusively for racing that has won consecutive championships in the MotoGP class of the FIM Road Racing World Championship Grand Prix (hereinafter called "MotoGP") in 2013 and 2014. Honda has made changes to some of the specifications of the RC213V, and will now introduce this as the RC213V-S. It is possible to ride the RC213V-S on public roads, and Honda will start accepting order entry for this new model on July 13, 2015.

That's pure awesome.

I'm sure Jay Leno will love riding it.

I haven't seen the specs but from what I hear they are not much more than a regular liter bike. There are still emissions and noise constraints, right? So saying this is a MotoGP bike is a little far-fetched.

Where are the carbon rotors? Does it use pump gas or the good stuff?

Street spec = less power than a stock BMW

How many R1Ms will that buy? Hmmmmmm......... It looks like Yamaha is the only Jap manufacturer that got it right.

I'll take the Kawi H2R for 40 grand, but then I can't ride it on the street (legally)

"OMG, the price is ridiculous."

Yes, and I might add... SOFA KING WE TODD ED.

I see nothing about that machine to justify that price... a toy hauler with both the R1M and the H2R inside would be more fun...

Now, for something completely different: On one hand, this HUGE waste of a Honda, or this...

Actually I'd make THAT my 3rd bike to put in the toy hauler.

The USA version is said to have 101HP!
Same as our Buell XBs!

And, no Power Up kit will be available (legally) here in the states.

Teeps is right. Unless you have a race license, the US version is 101 HP - multiple sources. Yaaawwwn, but I suppose you'd be the "only kid on your block" who has one!
