Default Is it true? VTEC motorcycle

I heard from a friend of mine who is in Honda PACT, the school funded by Honda, that they either already have a VTEC bike of they are in the proccess of making one. Is it true?

I don't quite remember but either the goldwing or some other large cc touring/cruiser type has variable valve timing. Not positive but pretty sure.

Yeah it has to do with how "many" valves open instead of how "high" they open.
