CFMoto's prototype V4 SR-RR recorded a GPS-verified 315.82km/h (196.2mph) at the Shangrao proving grounds, claimed as the fastest Chinese-built internal-combustion motorcycle to date. Its 997cc reverse-rotating-crank V4 produces over 210hp, paired with electrically adjustable winglets that cut drag 12% and add 45% more front downforce at speed.

Having watched this from the paddock, breaking 315km/h for real is a number you feel in your chest down a front straight. If they went as far as using Pininfarina's wind tunnel for the aero, there's no doubting how serious this is. Show that number in the pits and everyone goes quiet.

210hp+ from 997cc — the output per liter is absurd.

Tempting, but the price could kill the excitement fast.

A Chinese brand rivaling the Panigale — times have changed.

GPS-verified or not, mass production is another question.
