Very nice, but not enough to make me change my 2002 model... they look too similar IMHO

Not much of a change? it has a completely different front w/ ram air, different tank, swing arm, rear end, exhaust.. It's similar, but hardly close.

WOW. That's nice! The exhaust is under the tail Ducati style?

Makes me want to get one.

I just wish they made a 750 here...

180HP...INSANITY!!!!

R1 - 180 HP Inline 4
RCV 1000 - Supposed 160 HP V5
GSXR !000 - ?!?!

Seeing that people are already getting 160+ rwhp in the new GSXR1000 with mods, I can only imagine what the new GSXR 1K will come out to be.

2004 is going to be one crazy year for liter bikes.
