Well. im a yama rider..i have a 01 r6... its been pushed to its limits and back.. so im wanting more power..ive been likeing how the 08+ 1000's look but dont really kno anything about honda's... i was just wondering what the difference between the repsol and the regular 1000rr's are..

 

the bodywork. thats all I can tell anyhow and they cost about $1000 more.

 

yep. just the paint job.. that's it.

 

well that .. and the fact that it looks amazing ... orange rims.... mm nIIIICCCCCEEEEEE bike....

The silver frame and swing-arm look nice too.

 

So if i was to buy a reg 1000. and just buy the plastic and rims would i save any money?

 

It would cost more unless you got cheap Chinese fairings and painted the rims, and still anyone who really knows their bikes would spot the black swing-arm and frame and know it was fake.

 

Alright well thanks... anything i should look into about the new 1000's? is that a better bike then a gsxr 750? or the yama's.. i kno motor wise there is a difference but handling and weight.. i like to ride corners and wheelie (o of course go fast). would this be a good bike for myself? or should i just buy a gsxr 750 or a R6?

 

Define better. The cbr1000 is in a different league when you are talking about power. The GSXR750 turns in more easily and has better front end feel out of the box. Expect to have to clutch up for wheelies...no power wheelies there even though it is about 15 pounds lighter.

 

Try to take one for a test ride if you can. Only you can tell which one would suit you best.

I can tell you if I was looking for a new bike I would get the CBR1000RR out of those three without question.
