Bought me a new toy 2009 CBR 1000 RR repsol edition

Love those Repsol colors, they really pop. Do you think the brake dust will be bad on those orange wheels?

[jcal87]

Ha funny you say that I thought the same thing but for some reason it really only affects the back wheel but it wipes right off.

NICE!!!! I wish Honda would start making the 600RR in some decent colors again...

Very Nice ,
Sport bikes are the crazy fun. I road raced for several years in the Midwest 'till '99. Then I had an RC51 that I turned into a track-day bike and just did a few random track days when my kids were very young.

I missed racing, so then I ran a local Supermoto series for a few years. I am on hiatus from 2-wheels for now but still have a few old bikes in the garage.

Those liter bikes are amazing, my RC51 made (I think?) 135hp at the wheel after a handful of changes, that CBR 1000 would kill my RC51, It has both more power and is a bunch lighter.

What is the rear-wheel hp on those bad-boys?

Nice look'n!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Joel145]

Gotta love those liter bikes.

[jcal87]

Hey thanx guys! I think the HP on it is around 165 but I don't know if thats to the rear wheel or not.

[awr68]

Should be at the wheel hp. After a little work on my R1 we were at 143hp...not too bad for 10 yrs ago! There's really nothing like riding one of these bikes!
