I read in Dirt that Naoki Idegawa (ex Global) has signed up with honda...so I guess we will be seeing this bike sometime soon.

haha, that thing is pretty rad...can definitely see the moto influence. That seat has to be so you attatch a rope to it to pull up the hill cause theres no way u could ride it...it looks solid!

Yeah, but if you went by looks, M1s would be the heaviest bikes out there ;)

That seat is obviously for those whaddyamacallit superman-seatgrab thingys that FMXers do.

im guessing its gonna be a pre-production prototype thats gonna take 4 years to coome out just like they did with the CRF
it just looks like a single-pivot alum frame with one of those chainwheel pully thingys that reduce pedal bob.

Holy man, that bike looks space aged. That is just one weird funky looking bike. I winder if it will be in production by 2004?

Ok, here's what you can't see (and/or nobody has mentioned yet):
- Internal jackshaft drive
- Integrated Rohloff hub
- (not sure of brand) MX-style shock (note the HUGE reservoir sticking out under the seat)

Sorry to Rag socket but it pays to do some research, This bike has been on the MBaction.com web page and on stiksandstones.com it does not have a jackshaft or Rohloff hub It has an integrated gea box built by honda. It takes standard shimao cranks that attach to the gra box it has a single chain drive wheel like a moto that drive a single rear cog.

Looks rad to me 8)
