Honda V4 Engines. Same but Different.

There is so much good information about the why the Honda VFR V4 sounds so good,

This one from roadracenut is excellent and explains the VFR750 and 800

Thanks for your brain raodracenut.

But the new VFR1200 with its 76 degree V4 is different.
This quote from Asphalt and Rubber in 2009 explains.
"Honda has also abandoned conventual widsom when it comes to piston-firing orders. Instead of alternating piston pulses between the front and rear banks (pistons 1 & 3 up front, 2 & 4 in back), Honda is firing the banks one after another, (pistons 1 & 4 up front, 2 & 3 in back). Note, this is not a big-bang firing order, but it does allow Honda to create a compact motor that still has the characteristics of a V4."

This is what they sound like slowed right down.
