GP-inspired R6 - in MCN
Make sure you don't miss Wednesday's issue of MCN with exclusive news of a new R6 for 2006.

Changes include:
  • Chassis layout similar to an R1
  • Radial mount brakes
  • New swingarm
  • New engine
For the details, our exclusive image in full, and how Rossi has made his mark on it, see page three of this week's issue - out on Wednesday, August 10, 2005.

Taken from another website, and because of the rider, this looks more real to me.
