Looks kind of blunt/stubby to me - almost Buell-like. Not sure I like it. The near-vertical side fairings aren't helping, either.

As of now, the 600RR looks much better to me.

Page could not be loaded

The link you specified does not work. This may either be the result of temporary maintenance or an incorrect link.




Whatever it was.............. it was a photoshop.

Honda is supposed to release the full info on the 2008 CBR1000RR today, so we should have that pretty soon.

And the link still works for me and I'm pretty sure it's not a photoshop, since it also shows what look like phone camera pictures of a press video of the bike...

That's badass. I love the look of undertail exhausts but those new short side exhausts are really growing on me.
