250 or 450? I thought that dual exhaust was a fail in the market. I always liked the look but shyed away from them due to the cost of replacing the mufflerS if you wanted or needed a new system. That is a sweet looking bike though. And is that the number 1 on there? Barcia's outdoor bike?

Russian Bob's Honda is a full works bike. The go-through exhaust will not see production.

I liked the dual exhaust honda's. My Son had a 07 last year and it ripped..I still have the dual pro circuit system if anyone is looking..we put the stock stuff on when we traded it in..

The 2013 frame is quite different to the 2012. The bulk of this frame is more horizontal, and joins at the steering head a fair bit lower than the 2012. It will be interesting to see how it handles, and if it will take a while to properly develop like the 2009 model.

swap, by showing dual exhaust on the (alleged) 2013 450, are you also confirming production hydraulic clutch I see?

Yeah, another way to unnecessarily drive the cost through the roof.

Geez, how many years has he won that thing? He must be the Jap Goat, which would be like a crab or a fish or something.

Oh and awesome bike. Thanks for the photos.

If they are seriously looking to make the bikes quieter and not choke them up so much the duals have more sound damping capability.....

Interesting the ditched the pipe design that the GP guys were testing.

I hope the dual cans on Narita's bike are primarily for sound levels at their races or something. I hate buying bikes with extra pounds of garbage.

I loved my 08 250f with the dual exhaust. That thing was so balanced I never had to use a stand.
