Default Honda have it sown up with their CBRs :-)

I have the 600RR myself and just saw the most beautiful 1000RR in the new
member area :-)

https://cbrforum.com/forum/new-member-area-5/i-just-want-say-hi-93229/

I must say between these two bikes it's hard to imagine ever wanting more
or needing anything else, especially if the 1000RR is as good as I hear it is,
hell even the 600 is awesome and I am still running it in ..lol

I think the phrase "you've never had it so good" is what springs to mind
here ....


what do you guys think??



Jules

PS sown = sewn ...can't edit titles anymore ..lol

the new 1000RR is Better then you hear it is.

It makes my F4i feel like a turd in every way.

it's lighter it's faster it turns better and it is more comfortable.

go go Honda!

Any reason??, are you more race track focused, what about build quality?? ... I have to say I love the fact we have choices out there but Honda have consistently been better over the years in terms of build quality and especially finish of plated parts and paint ...

Whatever we pick it's hard to go wrong, I can't believe there are any bad bikes out there anymore ..make a bad bike at your peril!!

All the time I owned my F3 I told you guys I dreamed of owning an RR since they first came out, ironic that it took trashing my F3 and a crap year to make me just do it ..lol ..I am very glad I did, it's so much more than I ever believed it could be and I haven't even ventured into warp space on it yet!! ..still running in and need an oil change.

I know you always wanted the RR..I remember that last year haha. I think I may pick up an 07 RR by the end of the month. I miss riding to much.

It's not that I don't like the Honda. But I find the styling on the 1k a little bland. Especailly the headlights and the muffler. And for some reason I fit on an r1 better
The other reason I like the new R1 is because of the crossplane crankshaft.

But you can't beat honda for reliability, so it is a toss up.
