Honda has recenty been trying to dispel rumors that they will quit racing World Superbike, perhaps as soon as the end of the present season. They've already shown their V5 four-stroke GP engine to the world and you have to wonder why they'd need to stay in WSB in light of the new GP rules.

Our London desk, Glenn LeSanto, had the chance to find out more about the Honda-powered Mondial Piega at the first World Superbike round of the year in Valencia.

Could Honda have plans to leave World Superbike and keep an interest in the series by supplying engines and race expertise to a third party such as Mondial with their new Superbike? Read on...

Take a look at the story and let us know what you think of the bike and what this means not only for World Superbike, but for Honda as a company.

Might others follow suit? Yamaha comes to mind, not putting forth a full factory effort this year. Oooh, the possibilities are endless!
