We fans of Honda V-4 bikes have long been wishing for Honda to return to their senses and start making kick-ass V-4 sportbikes again. For the longest time, it's just been us fans who have been doing the talking. But lately the mothership herself has been starting to chatter about the V-4. Here is a cool video that has us wondering if Honda has something in the works:

Have they finally beaten the bean counters over the head enough to make them realize that Honda can be just like everyone else and stamp out I-4s or they can re-engage the innovative spirit that Soichiro radiated and make sportbikes that stand out from the crowd? You know, like the early 80's when they introduced sportbikes with such goodies as slipper clutches, radial tires, gear driven cams, liquid cooled engines. Maybe...
