    On the edge of release, Yamaha is giving the public a heads up with this teaser video:

    I hear a crossplane inline 4 and quick shifter.... This bike is going to be one righteous middleweight!

    They sound better than F1 cars.

    Don't know if it is crossplane or not, but I would guess not just from the sound comparing it to an R1. Just a few more days until we find out though!

    I just hope it looks good and they didn't mess it up like the current Honda 600 lineup.

    I always wanted the R6. I ended up with different bikes. This may be different. Sounds awesome.

    Pics and specs out today. More evolution than revolution. Same basic engine and chassis. R1-style bodywork. Not crossplane.

    Yawn.

    Who needs a "medium bang" 600 4 banger?
    Nobody.
