papa,
I don't like the Honda CBR look of the fairing shrouding the wheel. This looks better to my eye.
Dunno if it's photochop or not, but it looks like a reasonable guess.

It looks like it has a similar frame design as the 10R.....I'm thinking that this bike wil be very, very light and narrow....The front of the tank looks strange.....

first of all I wouldnt say that's photoshop, and second of all.. it's it is, it's damn good.... not "really bad"
that photo is in about 5 different European mags right now and it's NOT being listed as a photoshopped pic FYI.

Looks like they might have copied the Yamaha R1 idea where the air filter is the front of the tank. It still has a side exhaust. The ZX10 style frame is obvious escept the air doesn't seem to go through the front of the frame like the 10. It also has the ZX10 style euro signals. I am disappointed that it doesn't have the 10 style wheels and wave rotors. Maybe the wheels, wave rotors, DLC fork coating will only be on the 6RR version.

honestly I dont know if this photo is photshopped or not, but like PK said, we did see it in 4 or 5 different European publications on our trip.... if it is photoshop, then it's damn good...
as for the likelyhood of this bike existing for next season, or something very similar... I'd be willing to bet 99%
that's my 2$ werth.
