More V5 Interceptor News?

I was looking back through MCN-Motorcycle News and found a good article re: the new Interceptor.
But nothing since. Was this a hoax?
If it was it was very elaborate.

MCN V5 Interceptor

 

it was hoax.
it was photoshopped

2009 is a new black color.

no real new on a v5 thats not a concept bike.

 

I believe that the first person who starts a 2010 VFR 1000 V5 thread should get a ass whooping...

 

I'll bring the axe handle

 

The Colour Black

Black is the absence of colour...:tongue::smile:

 

I'll bring the steel-toe.

 

I'm ducking...:bolt::behindsofa:

 

Right behind you, well at least until June '09 when a fresh rumour from a friends friends friends friend in the know will let slip a " sure thing " but not let anybody else hear about it. :smile:

 

You know, megasuperturbosneakpeakbikes.com said that 2010 is the year the VFR gets redesigned.

 

Number One on the "Beaten into Liquid Form" list....

 

British Magazine Two Wheels Only has fallen victim to the same hype. In it's Oct issue, Mike Scott in his Pitbull column repeats the same rubbish about '09 VFR..."first road-going V5 engine...push-button gear shifting...ultra-sophisticated anti-lock brakes...shaft drive."

I searched they're articles online. No mention of the Pitbull gaff. However, I did find an amusing article about 5-year running predictions of the next gen VFR:
