Hayden's decision to stay with MotoGP Honda is becoming more
mystifying each week. Honda hanging onto a V5 with an 800cc engine is
one reason, the other 4 cylinder engines have lower frictional losses,
I think that a Honda race win will be a rarity this year and least of
all from Hayden. The V3 motor that was proposed some months back would
have made for a better compromise. With the smaller machines favouring
"schoolboy" racers (Hayden isn't a big rider, its a small bike) the
next mystery is why Hayden has bothered to stay in MotoGP and not gone
to big cubes WSB.

I guess being a Hayden-fanboy / JIS-theorist depends largely on being
misinformed.
Honda's 800 is a V4.

The 800c Honda RC212v bike is a four cylinder, you idiot.
Which makes the rest of your opinion pretty worthless.

Hard to know where to start on that post. The final sentence was a peach
though.
