BHP is the power the engine makes without considering the loss of power as the power makes its journey to the rear wheel. Obviousy wheel HP is the power existing at the rear wheel

THANK YOU!!! Jesus f**king christ! Now I know that I'm not the only one who has some of the same opinions about the '07 CBR. I actually got to go out to Vegas with one of my friends who works for Honda for the "Honda Show".. After seeing it in person and talking to my buds...here's my conclusion: 1) It DEFINATELY looks like an R6 from the tank on up it also has Gixxer fairings and a Gixxer tail/rearend. Yeah, it does look like an RC51, but after the new Gixxer and R6 came out...Honda created this, this...thing which looks like to me that Honda is trying to "copy" the goods from the other "Japanese 4". When I sat on itand took it for a "loop" it felt like sitting on a Gixxer a little more comfortable than the previous models with the "power" of a new R6, with the "same" high revving. My conclusion: I'm V-E-R-Y disappointed with the new '07 CBR 600RR. Honda's losing their touch and it's a f**king shame! Honda ALWAYS had set themselves apart from the others, but nooo, not for '07. 120 +/- hp is not at the wheel, it's at the crank but that's still nice. I absolutely hate the color schemes, looks to me like homo colors. After all of the hype the past couple of months, I was expecting ALOT more from Honda. The 1000's are getting new colors, but that's about it. Oh well, even though I'm upset, I'll always be a Honda fan.

Oh the brake in "brake horsepower" has nothing to do with the brakes on your bike or car. Its referring to the device that measures the torque of an engine and from this they do some math and come up with the BHP.

+1 all i can say is im glad i got the 06 instead of waiting it out for the 07 its very un honda like.

Well the HP numbers and weight that I put were from one of the websites posted but Honda still hasnt come out and said the actual HP or weight. I think I would choose the 07 over the 06 if the HP was a little higher. The whole bike is smaller from front to back but its got more HP. To me sounds closer to the weight/power ratio that it needs.

I'm glad they kept the undertail exhaust as it looks bad@$$ on a 600rr
they could have easily done a small exhaust to save a few pounds more

rumors have it MSPR $9,499 but i think that's a joke
they will never sell at that price... people will buy competitors bike or even F4i for 1K less
