Am I the only one who think this looks weird?

On the engine block, you can see end of 77765 pin 3L with end stop. But considering engine block is 2L thick, those 3L pin make engine block unstable.

Maybe that is 2L version of that pin.

 

And seems like engine use new cam piece with old piston.

There is very little attention from the community to motorcycles in Lego Technic, and even less to the scale 1:5. Quite an interesting model with free instructions, suitable for assembly during the New Year holidays, provided that it does not contain any difficult to replace new parts.

If you are talking about panels 64394/64680, they are unchanged. The only thing that confuses me is the panel under the tank.

This part is really new, but it is quite possible to install glass from BMW 75544pr0001.

The color of the parts is not so important - with others it can turn out even more interesting than the original.

Seems that the engine uses the small engine cam, but is somehow connected to the large cylinders.. Very unusual. 

Unfortunately I think you're right. One step forwards (gearboxes are getting better) but one step back (unrealistic engine, less realistic than what we already had for decades).

Or maybe there's a bar inside the pin that connects the two sides.

I think the engine's at least 6 studs wide (4 of those are cylinder blocks, something is in between them), gonna be interesting to get a more detailed view of what they actually did.  The axle on the other side of the cylinder is probably a 4L with stop inserted from each side, so that handles stability fine, the pins just maintain the angle.

As usual, good preview video for a Technic set. He has some interesting observations regarding pricing.

My only question [for now] is though: how come an upcoming set can already be declared legendary? 😕

I mean, the gearbox of the Yamaha was a legendary improvement in gearboxes for sure (the gearbox being the most mechanically interesting part, so that's wonderful!), but if this Ducati doesn't improve on the gearbox in some way (like adding more speeds), and it uses the newer, less realistic cam style engine, then it's a step backwards overall.

When was the last 1:8 car with a new gearbox?

Not sure how this relates to this set, but the 42172 mclaren P1's gearbox worked quite differently to previous lego car gearboxes.

I wonder why they didnt use the orange changeover drum in this set instead of the medium azure one
