Trickle down tech

By Paul Crowe

MotoGP 4 strokes are a wonderful thing because the technology is slowly moving onto the street (What a surprise!). Ducati unveiled their V4 DESMOSEDICI/RR engine at World Ducati Week which will be placed in some ultra expensive ($60,000+) limited production street machine. The race version made 250HP, you have to wonder what the civilian version will do. Now there are whispers of a Honda 1200cc V5 which may reach 200HP on the street. The 2 stroke 500’s were a wonder to watch but show me something we mortals could ride (yeah, like I can really ride a 200hp sportbike) and I get interested, or at least I can dream.
