I'm 61, workout, weigh 195, 6'O". I ride a 2006 black CBR600RR and I ride it hard and fairly well. But, there is a guy on the Big Island, an Army Vet, who is 65. He bought a new 2006 Red and Black CBR1000RR at the end of May. He now has over 4,000 miles on it. He is sort of famous locally.....a really nice guy. He rides a lot.....both dirt and street. He told me that he red lined his CBR1000RR in 6th gear coming out of Volcano National Park on the long straight to Kau.....he told me the speed...but you can guess it. I don't know who reads this stuff. He had over 175,000 miles on his last Honda street bike. I really respect him. He wears all his gear and encourages others to ride well. So....all you young guys have a lot of years left!!! Take care of yourself physically and ride to till the years set in the west!
