Default Why do you love your RR?

Hey guys, I'm new here, so I thought I'd create an introduction topic that was a bit more interesting. I ride an RR and I'd like to know exactly what you love about yours. I want the little specific details that make you feel this is the right bike for you.

For me it's how it feels when you're going around a corner with it, maybe because it's lighter than other bikes, I don't know, just feels right.

What about you?

For me, I am a die hard Honda guy. I am reasonably new to street bikes and not ready for a cruiser. Prefer the extreme versions of transportation and so for bikes takes me to the cbr RR (and my CRF). Really like both the 600 and 1k bikes.

It's a great overall bike, plus it's a Honda.

its styling, its a honda, the weight of the bike. i like the seat height (i'm 5'6) the fact that its a good street bike and a decent track bike. its the best of both worlds.

I just bought an 09 RR this saturday. An upgrade from my 92 F2. It is amazing what 17 years of tech can do. Right when I first sat on it it was soo much lighter than my old bike. I started cruising around and the differences were so amazing. It was 38 degrees outside but I was having so much fun that I didn't mind. The steering damper is another thing that I immediately noticed. The ride is so smooth and has helped my corning tremendously. I am literally in love and I know my new baby will help me take my riding safely to the next level. The only bad thing is that like anything you love I immediately want to throw lots of money at it(new exhaust, slipper clutch, hids, fixing the scratches the previous owner left, ect)

2003-2006 600RR and 2004-2007 1000RR are the best looking, most reliable bikes you can get for less than $5k.

I LOVE mine because (like the others said) it's a Honda. I'll never get another brand unless I have the chance to make a bunch of money off of it. Even if it is a 600, I love the power once you hit 7k. It's just got power on tap and it's ready to go with a crank of the throttle. Another thing I like about it is the fact that they are a pretty popular bike. Makes it MUCH easier to find parts. There are always several part outs going on, there are always people looking for parts, and so on. One last thing: From my experience at least, most everyone on a honda knows what they're doing. I've had Honda's since 2003 and have yet to be let down.

I like mine because she was my first and we went through the training period together and she was the lightest of all 600 bikes. I have gsxr too but I can tell you 600rr is much smoother than gsxr. I like the way headlight looks. And I always used to compliments before the accident and she is getting compliment even in the shop while waiting to be fixed, and you know for sure she will get much more compliments when I take her out from the shop
