Default A little Nugget of knowledge for your a** pack of facts!

The words, "Dedicated to Super Evaluators Dirk Vandenberg and Josef Boyd," are embossed in raised letters on the inside of the Honda CBR600F4's upper fairing. This dedication was made because two of Honda R&D's senior product developers were killed during the final testing of this model.

Wow thats really cool, kinda makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

I wondered who those guys were, and I meant to look it up. Thanks! Now I don't have to!
