Rizla Suzuki made public their testing of the 2007 800cc GSV-R MotoGP bike at Sepang in Malaysia recently. As from next year Dorna, MotoGP organisers are changing the capacity of the bikes from 990cc to 800cc in a bid to slow the bikes down and quell fears that the bikes are becoming too fast and thus too dangerous. Of course, these bikes are lighter and so have a higher corner speed than the current 990's, meaning they're lapping only a second down so far on the current 990cc bikes.

Other manufacturers also recently tested their 800cc bikes, namely Honda and Ducati. More to come as we get it.
