The new CBR.

[Lyam]

What i don't understand is why only have tpft and then spend a fortune on mods, why have a rrestricted license instead of going for the full buhna unless it's age related?

I'd be physically sick in my helmetl, riding about in a brand new bike with 3rd party insurance, if I was you in would of bought a bike no more than 2k and took it to a reputable garage and paid the guys to look over it with a fine toothcomb, your never gonna push that bike near it's limits for 2 years and all its doing in depreciating, and you said your gonna jump on a blade in 2 years im sorry but going from 33bhp to 170bhp it's just not a good idea don't become a statistic you have your whole life to learn to go fast on a bike.

No idea what he's on about.

I'm TPFT on my bike, always have been when I got it £5k, I figured if I'm going to crash it'll be some poxy roundabout at 6mph and will be replacing a lever or two, or it'll be balls out and I'll be in hospital for 6 months.

Risk we take, considering my insurance is £228 TPFT I can put the saved money away just in case.

Went from an 11bhp YBR to a 105bhp CBR6FV, that was a bit of a shock, then from the FV to an RR, also a shock!

Not sure I see where the issue is tbh, just don't try to ride them all the same way

Looking really good now Carlos, especially with that tail tidy!

Are you any closer to getting those arrow downpipes?!

Lovely bike mate. Would be a lovely a feeling getting a bike from new but I prefer the feeling of getting a bargain. Can find bikes with less than £3K on the clocks for half the showroom price sometimes. Nonetheless, I think we'd all go new if we could.

What are the differences between the FF and RR? Just riding position or is it detuned also?

[CarlosCBR]

Same engine as the 2007+ RR but more midrange at the expense of top end. Riding position is unbelievably comfortable.

No closer to Arrow pipes just yet, may have some by the end of the year.

Hornet sounds more like the FZ6 imo. Although saying that, the CBR6f is pretty much a fully dressed Hornet with clip ons.

Looks a lot better with the tail tidy Carlos.

Really don't understand why people insure bikes fully comp unless it's really cheap?

*Just insured a brand new £10,000 bike TPFT.

The bike look nice, but personally if I had £7k to spend on a bike I would buy something much much better

I think I need to buy something newer, because I'm kinda bored with ZX6R and often cannot be arsed to ride even when the weather is nice... bad sign

[Landy]

Nice bike, I have the red version. I tried to upload a pic but not working for some reason.

Only payed yesterday, sellers not sent them yet. Can't wait, was out with a lad with an RR with Leo can and that sounded amazing so should be sweet with a full system.
