I'd like to see some serious wind tunnel work along the lines of the ZZR1100... a bike that did 172mph with just 125bhp. When ridden at normal road speeds it managed 60mpg too. Extraordinary aero efficiency not matched since.

Speaking of aero efficiency, what about the 1991 BMW K1? It was very aerodynamically efficient - but that didn't help it much when it came to customer interest and sales.  ::)

It was also sadly hideous in that way only BMW seem to manage.
