Honda calls this a "prototype," but it really is their RC213V MotoGP racer with a license plate and a headlight. That's insane, and it's ready for production.
Lucikly, that's all you really need to know, because this really is just an RC213V with road legal bits. Our Honda insider tells us that the bike is equipped with a 1,000cc V4 complete with the same bore and stroke as the racer — 81x48.5mm.
As a sign of how serious this motorcycle is, those remote-reservoir forks are SBK-level Ohlins FGR items. How fancy are they? Well if you tried to buy them yourself, they'd cost you $13,000. Yes, that comma is in the right place.
One of the most interesting features are the small headlights mounted inside the RC213V's distinctive "mouth" air intake. Apparently, these pop out for track use.
Expect to see full specs and an eye watering price announced soon.
