VALENTINO ROSSI debuted a gyroscopic camera at the Sachsenring MotoGP at the weekend.The camera is designed to 'lean' with the rider, giving the viewer a more realistic view of riding onboard a 200mph MotoGP machine.The technology has been developed

Mondial's V-twin sportster looked promising, but the people behind it hadn't produced a streetbike before, they weren't sure whether the engine would come from Honda or Suzuki, and the bike's spec included a gyroscope system that increased midrange
