I'm not so sure I see a steering mechanism.  I can see how that would be fine on a Busa, but a GP bike?

Bikes? "they all feature . . ." ???

It's the same model with 5 different skins!

bad art, frame is overkill for a 250, it would be heavier than need be.

Frame looks like it is CF.

Maybe. My other beef is that the cylinder is vertical. It would make more sense to have it horizontal, since you want the weight as low as possible.

Surely that's an error and it means "four stroke"

His rendering doesnt show any sort of intake or exhaust manifold for four seperate... 62.5cc cylinders. My god that would be high pitched.

Each bike is equipped with a water/oil cooled, 6-speed, 250cc vertical-opposition 4 cylinder, fuel injected engine. sure, its unconventional, but it just sounds fun doesn’t it? The final drive would be a conventional chain

I can't even imagine what that would sound like  [laugh]

I think of the sound a zipper makes when you pull it really quickly.

Quote from: Jeremy
Recently I got a weird itch to re-create GP racing. why cant we still have 2-strokes? (obviously technology has improved greatly for them, making emissions a bit more reachable.) Why does MotoGP always have to be conventional? (conventional in means of prototype race bikes.)

Reach my emissions!

But I have no idea wtf this means:
