Isnt she pretty (bike)
« on: October 16, 2006, 12:07:06 PM »
Next spring my Hondas are gonna have a little more company in the garage... A 2007 R1 most likely

This is the one I would get:

and the plain black mid fairing is the perfect spot to add a custom touch with a little paint.
I already have a liter bike and it still makes me drool just thinking about it.

My CBR will be converted for non-street-legal use (if I can find the parts :-\) and the R1 will probably get a full titanium exhaust and some engine work... 200 rwhp is the target!
Too bad for Honda they didnt make more changes for the 07 CBR1000RR

Yummy! Any motorcycle which will do the national speed limit in first gear has to get the pulse racing...

That's a nice bike! I borrowed a 2001 R1 for one race this season and I have to say, I rather race my old Suzuki  ;D
I'm quite tall and I don't feel comfortable on a bike like that.It's a beauty though!

Looks like you'd need to chain it up in the garage
 so it won't get out and eat the neighbors pets.
Dude- your 8 layers are showing!

Wow, I'm stunned.  It's giving me goose bumps.
