till this new technology is redly available.

Rossi is good-not making fun of anyone who races a bike that goes 220mph and the corners with knee pads
my other cousins-brothers of Nicky
Tommy run in the AMA superbikes-USA version of MotoGP
and Roger in the FIM worldsuperbikes
MotoGP is the motorcycle world's equivalent of Formula 1 racing, whereas FIM Superbike racing is similar to Touring Car racing.
sorry for the off topic
and i have a Harley V-rod for personal use....

Why would it cost a lot of money, it shouldn't be much more costly than a standard BIOS chip.

Yes they are probably going to try to charge a premium for it, but it is just another motherboard component/chip.
