Hey guys great Forum here and likethe title says im looking at a 06 CBR1000RR Yellow and blue with only only 20 miles on it . I've had many bikes but have been bikeless for over six years and cant take it anymore lol. Anyway i've had a 95 f3, 96 gsxr 600,98 gsxr750,99 zx9, 99 R1 And 2000 929. So I found this mint like new 06 1000 rr yellow/blue that looks wicked but not to familiar with this year, I've done some research and read a lot of good things about itbut figure I'D GO wright to the source and ask you guys. I've already left a deposit down on it and due to pick it up next week. Thanks in advance for the input .

 

Great bike!! I have the exact one....now with a little over 10k on it and still runs great, a little hot during a hot day and heavy traffic but other wise the bike handles excellent great for wheelies or whatever you want to do with it....definately a good investment...i also love the blue and yellow....i get many compliments....there seem to be not so many of them....good luck

 

The bike is 2 years old and only has 20 miles on it!?! Wow, thats pretty impressive. I gotthe red and black. I love mine. Other than a leaky gas tank that was recalled, the bike is awesome. I love the center exit exhaust. I think it is one of the best looking liter bikes ever made.

 

Great thats what Iwhat I Wantedto hear, it dosent get to hot were im at so hopefully it wont be a problem and that yellow and blue really does look sweet!!

 

Yeah, definitely a sweet-lookingcolor scheme. Hopefully you have a good buying/owning experience.

I bought an 04 earlier this year. First bike I've ever owned. I had a little buyer's remorse at first, but after taking some road trips and group rides, I'm very glad that I got it.

 

Ya the bike still has the red stripes on theoriginal tire treads that hasnt worn offand still has that new bike smell or as I like to call it puppy breath It looks like it just rolled of the show room.

 

Thanks and yes i've had a few bikes in my day and I know what you mean about the emotional roller coaster ride sorta speak. But a few group rides, a few solo rides and trip to the coffee shop to hang out with your friends and its all good . I really missed the biker camaradarie .

 

Sounds like you got lucky. I have an 06 (red and black) with 16,000 miles and I haven't had any problems at all. I love this bike!

I would also suggest going -1 in front for a little added fun . That is probably my best mod to date

 

Ya maybe down one tooth in the front might be in the near future but I'll probably get use to it a little. I heard they went +1 in the backcompared to the 05's already. I bet it must be be really hard to hold the front end down dropping a tooth in the front, but fun .

 

little added fun? like a game, *try* to keep the wheel down when cops are around [8D]

I've only had minor issues with mine but it was a faulty bike (like 1 out of 1,000) but congratz on the bike, your gonna love the blue/yellow

maybe if you do a 520 conversion with a sprocket change, maybe think about powdercoating the rims?
