Honda V Formula 500 Cup

1986 Honda V Formula 500 Cup
This was a new race series to try and promote the 'sporty' pedigree of the new 70bhp Honda VF500F road bike.
Regulations were very strict with very little in the way of modifications allowed to change the bikes other than a Motad exhaust.

I don't know about you, but it is very exciting to see this race for me.

Vyrus 986 M2 Moto2 bike at Misano

Hub-center steering has been around for a while (the concept of it was documented in as early as 1920's) but Vyrus combine that with Omega frame, Fomula 1 car like rear shock and a carbon-fibre monocoque tank and seat unit. Currently, Vyrus and Bimota are only production bikes that feature hub-center steering. Yamaha made GTS1000 in 90's but did not do well.

Ace Cafe London

"The Ace Cafe London is an old transport café in London, England. It originally opened in 1938 and was designed to accommodate the traffic traveling on the then new North Circular Road. Because the cafe was open 24 hours a day, it soon started to attract motorcyclists. It became popular with Rockers in the 1950/60s and it was a local hangout for the petrol heads. Today it has been refurbished and Rockers and motorcyclists from all over the world go to the Ace to share stories, fix bikes and see the legend itself."
