Pneumatic valves next for Yamaha

so, check the link below. these have been in F1 cars since the '90s & i guess yamaha are taking the leap to get them for rossi before the brno race. the yamaha revs to ~18K now & will probably be able to hit ~20-22K (maybe even more). this could eventually (like in 10 yrs time) trickle down to the street bikes, but maybe not. all i gots to say is watch out stoner!

OH SNAP!!

If they do manage to get that engine built in time, I hope it'll last a whole race... remember La Guna and Le Mans last year...
