    I've read that Honda are likely to have a big advantage next year due
    to their resources and experience in building engines. Who agrees? Who
    disagrees? Of the five major teams
    (Honda,Yamaha,Ducati,Suzuki,Kawasaki), who is likely to be as fast as
    this year or faster, and who is likely to be (comparatively) slower?

    Suzuki can leverage their GSXR-750 experience?
    The others do not have a 750 bike.

    Then again... Suzuki is doing pneumatic valves now in mgp, so that
    is very different from GSXR technology.

    Also: pneumatic valves give higher benefits at higher revs.
    Revs will go up when shrinking engine capacity.

    So... all in all... suzuki may be a good tip.

    I have no idea who is using what regarding engine configs.

    I heard Honda had a V3 is this so? Will Team Roberts still get Honda
    motors?

    I imagine Yami and Kawi will be inlines...?

    Duc is a V4, I think. Suzuki - V4?


    Curious.
