Default One thing nice about having a 900rr

Ok, I'll go first:


Not having to read threads asking "What's the biggest rear tire I can fit on my rim?"

or

"Will a 180 tire fit on my bike?"





Next!

190 is the biggest I would go,

a 180 will fit n may turn (lean) in easier. lol [8D]

I like the 900 - 954RR's. If I ever (doubt it) get a 1k it will be one of those I do think.

them or a RC

Let's see...one nice thing about owning the original RR...hmmm. There used to be a lot of unique reasons, and I still love it for all those same ones--not the least of which is a trunk large enough to put a pallet of bricks and some plywood in...

Really though, it's the effortless way in which the bike becomes an extension of myself out on the road. Skyscraper torque and good power across the rev band, all in a package that is arguably the most user friendly ever made.

One thing nice about having a 900RR is the sheer grunt they offer whenever you want it. I love the ease of wheelies and the strange looks I get at the racetrack. And I'm with SpiritRR too on this one, I love having the trunk space to fit an entirechange of clothes when I stay the night after a party.

I was able to pack some nice foods from a few hundred kilometers away for my wife under the trunk.

And the food was still hot!

You sit in the bike and not on the bike. So many other bikes i have sat on I feel as though I am sitting way on top of the bike, where with my cbr900rr i feel as though I am an integrated part of the bike.

+2 on the trunk. It will hold a 12 pack of Cans, with the seat up just a little (long enough to make it back to the hotel.) or just the way you sit in the saddle, all down low, not sitting up on top of the tank.

One thing nice about having a 900RR?


- Not having to pay $4000 to get it registered and insured for a year.

- Not worrying about every little scratch that shows up.

- Talking **** to Kawis.

- Can you say WHEELIES?

- Able to put high-schooler squid owned 600s in their place.

- Still has enough 'chick magnetism' to get a couple looks from hotties.


Or the real reason I bought mine: For the first 5 years of its production it was hands down the fastest bike around. So if your bank account is like mine, you probably got the cheapest, fastest, coolest bike you could, a Honda CBR 900RR.

I knew the 900rr was special when it debuted but i had no idea it was the reason we have the R1 and other superlight, super powerful bikes today.

So, I guess another nice thing about owning a 9 is that we all own a piece of superbike history!
