I havent heard anything about it. Hopefully its not just Honda's "BOLD new graphics" haha. EFI would impress me for an improvement.

i dont not have any idea why all of you want EFI!!!!! The R is already proving to be a better machine with a carb. Plus, if they switch to EFI, that would pretty much mean that they would have to change the whole head/intake setup on the motor.

I will pass on the EFI and keep the carb. I hate listening to people talk about there LTR and its electrical problems.

I am hoping for a stronger frame, better rear end setup, better valved stock shocks, better electric start, and close to the same price

Hit the nail on the head here. All of those things are needed. They need to change the front end back to the 04-05 or make it better then that. I would also like to see a dual piston rear caliper. IMO the rear brake sucks compared to the fronts. One thing is for sure, they need to make some changes. Winning races or not, changes need to be made. If they do, I'll have one!
