2014 Pata Honda WSBK and WSS Team Presentation

Honda presented its 2014 World Superbike and Supersport team, including the new CBR1000RR SP racebike in a presentation at the Motor Bike Expo in Verona, Italy.

Last season was disappointing for Honda, with both Rea and Haslam missing significant time due to leg injuries.
