I can confirm that the black/gray one will be limited run, less than 500 made. So, you collectors might want to think about one.

I liked the white one. And I'm a Gixxer fan.

As much as I want to like the new 1000RR, I just can't do it. No matter what the lighting or the angle of the picture.

I like the front view but the side view doesnt look too great. The mid and lower fairings could be a lot more aggressive imo. And that exhaust can doesnt look good at all.

I agree...

Just looking at the front, it's very sweet...The side just looks too sedate...I like the aggressive look and hard lines the CBR has had over the years...The badge on the tank is pretty sweet, too..

And I'm still waiting to see a pic with some aftermarket exhaust...I think that will change the look remarkably...

I don't care for the look or the exhaust. The gauge cluster is pretty sweet though. I can see mainly numbers being important if you want to race a bike, but for me how the bike looks is just as important.

I would buy one, they hp is sick, 176hp at crank compared to 165hp at crank. Although I like the tail exhaust much better, who would have thought in four years they would lose such an innovative design. Its sort of like taking a step backward but not really. This design is still different then just a side exhaust, Honda engineers seem so much more then the other bike companies. Flating the exhause out so the bike can turn deeper. Like it or not its going to win races.

How is an undertail exhaust an innovative design???

Crank hp is just a manufacturer's claim. But the new pipe looks like it came off an R6.

Fugly. Period.

The 06 and 07's were absolutely gorgeous, and this year zuki stepped up with an incredible looking 600 and 750.

If zook puts the same headlight assembly on the 1000 for 09 I'm buying one.
