Why did Honda tease the Honda bike world with the Evoblade. I Googled it and read, 160hp @ 12100rpm, thats pretty insane numbers for a 99 bike, single side swingarm, ram air induction, WHY, http://www.ram.mc/evoblade.html ...www.ram.mc/cbr900mirror1.jpg ...

I believe Honda executives don't think society can handle these machines bikes, cars, or watercraft. They've been like this for decades wit everythin. They'll make revolutionary machines but then hold back a little. It's just somethin wit Honda and mass prodution machines almost like their protecting their buyers...........................who knows.
