cbr 1000 do or don't
 
Just wanna start by saying hello to every... Now I have two weeks to decided if I wanna buy a 2006 or 2007 cbr 1000rr just looking on some insight from people who own these kinda bikes. I'm not new to the cbr I had the 600 but sold it because the wife got pregnant. But now ready to step up to bigger n better any insight will be helpful. Thanks in advance

Why those particular years? Starting with the 2008, Honda did a complete makeover of the 1000RR. Smaller, lighter and faster...just like the MiGS. :icon_lol:

Just that I'm spending on a budget and every where I look these yrs just fit my price range

Not sure cause I'm tall 6,4 but it's a light bike so should have no issue handling it on one foot

Ok thank you for insights

Im 5'7" and i have no issues. Almost two full flat feet. Maybe a 1/4" off heal flat and level. No drop on suspension either.

I'm going to the shop April 2 to pick the one o want...what is the differences between stock swing arm and one that has 6 once extension will that make a big difference in the way the bike will handle

johnnychimpo26 Mar 23, 2013 08:57 AM

Huge difference. Dont get the extended swing arm one IMO.
