Yamaha posts sneak pic of FZ8 - no mention of an R7/8 yet but it's hard to believe they would develop a 750/800cc motor to just stuff it into one Euro spec bike.

One can only hope....

Now if they did it and it looked like the CGI wet dream below.......

to clarify: the image above has nothing to do with Yamaha - just some graphic artist's wet dream.
the only thing confirmed so far is an FZ8

think about this while rubbing one out: a CROSSPLANE R8...only tuned to actually make top-end power.

Looks like sort of a blowjob by Yami - article says that it's a sleeved FZ1 engine which I would guess will kill any notion of an R8 - not sure what the point is....
