Lets start a "petition" or poll to see how many people would be interested in a big-bore "Gt-Touring" bike made by "Yamaha" ?? It would be awesome to have a 1400cc, 16 valve, big bore bike designed by Yamaha with design and stying cues, culminated from all year R1's !!! I would definately buy a big-bore bike from Yamaha to challenge the Suzuki Hayabusa and the Kawasaki ZX-14...What about everyone else ???????? Furthermore, Honda is planning on releasing a 1200 or 1300 cc all new Blackbird XX in 2007 !!! Well, lets just see what Yamaha's take is on this subject. !!!Yamaha needs to step up to the plate and make bikes comparable and on the same lines as all of the other manufactures....Look how "Valentino Rossi" made them change the cylinder head from a five valve design to a four valve design on his 2005 MotoGp bike..... What is yall's take on this subject " my forum member's ???

Could care less about a big ass engine in a bike...998 is more than enough...It would just be another bike to bling out...yay...more chrome. :sleep :sleep

 

I think that would be awesome, especially if they made handle like the r1. i Think they should just make an R14 or something of the sort, make it look exactly like the r1, the you could put r1 stickers on it, and blow everyone on the su-suckies away. that would be awesome

 

hard to make it handle like an r1 as it would be heavy as hell bro...my next bike will be a big bore bike though for touring as i have the r1 for carving up the twisties...now i need a big bike for cruising and long trips...

 

now i need a big bike for cruising and long trips...

What? Your not turning into a Gold Wing man are ya!

 

i would rather see a 750

 

not a goldwing LOL but a nice turbo 1200cc+ bike would be nice for cruising...just sitting on them they are tons more cumfy also...for a second bike i wouldn't mind...i did a 5k mile trip on my r1 and even though i averaged 1k miles per day or so...i don't want to do it again on a bike like mine LOL rather have a bigger bike and one where i don't have to bend over as much, but she still has to be sporty HAHA and have balls

 

I call for a petition to Yamaha to make a V-12. That should kick ass, right?

 

The Kawasaki 14 isn't as quick as the stock R1 in the eight mile test runs. The one liter horse power to weight ratio is hard to improve upon. With a $2500 upgrade in the basics from stock will provide you with throttle power to endo up to 100 mph. What else do we need?

 

i would rather see a 750

:iamwithst

I agree id rather see them bring back the R7

 

motogp 800cc next year as good as it gets

 

i would rather see a 750

:iamwithst An R7 with a real world price tag--not $32K

 

Oh yeah bring it baby.
