What would you expect the difference to be between a 2013 replica and a 2014 model Mick? Generally there isn't a whole lot and the replica models begin to start using some of the components for the up and coming models. In the past this has been forks and linkages.

Being that we can't see the engine its hard to tell if much has changed there, but the swingarm and reiger shock stand out like dogs balls.

Thought it is was getting a new subframe?...makes me wonder if they are just testing the swing arm and new shock on a '13?

that and a different triple clamp, without seeing the engine. yes very hard to tell if this is indeed a '14 model.

Looks like he was on that bike for the Romania Grand Prix....no claer pics of the engine though.

edit: found this

Alloy subframe is covered with plastic trim with the black/white graphic. Looks just like the plastic spars, and also allows fit of the same side panels.

Fooled me too at first when the alloy part first came out, thought it was a hybrid. Check out subframe thread.

I was expecting something completely different.

Appears to be shock testing, rear shock is missing.. must be able to be removed out the bottom?
