the guy is riding in a traffic lane against a double yellow. the camera vehicle is in the traffic lane with him. pretty easy to tell. FYI race tracks dont have double yellows.

I'm sleeping again...
#7 100% confirms supercharged
Wondering if the engine rendering is an accurate representation of the final product, and if anyone here can figure out anything else about the engine by looking at it?

Looks good to me. What I find interesting is the sound cut from the earlier release. The "squeak" sound during the shifts is likely a manifold pressure pop off valve system that prevents MP fluctuations from effecting the inlet flow during shifts. That technology goes all the way back to the Porsche 917K-10 in the Can Am Car days.

I just hope it doesn't use a single sided swing arm like the 1199 as personally I hate the look of those designs. Symmetry is a good thing on a motorbike. The still shot of the H2 on the track (earlier post) doesn't give away too much

I just reviewed the video to see if any of the other frames held clues... there is a back-on view after the bike passes after all... but it is so short, quick, and the video so lousy, that i really can't say either way. The silhouette doesn't give any clues either.

Well this episode certainly gives some credence to the $58,000 price tag rumour. Or at the very least, that it is going to run a fair bit higher than your average sportbike. I am intrigued.
