2008 Honda CBR1000RR
Summary:
A far better bike than most riders will ever need or use
Faults:
Coolant hose clamp recall.
Clutch recall.
General Comments:
Handles very, very well.
The brakes are quite good, though I did not get the ABS linked brake version (09).
Acceleration is smooth and extremely powerful.
Comfort is not bad, but I'm not tall (at 5'7") and I bought the "E-seat". I like the looks too, except the Klingon Battle Cruiser taillight assembly.
Lots of modification parts available.
Could use a more conventional fuel gauge instead of the digital "amount used" and warning light at reserve.
Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes
