Default L@@k New Mods To My Rc51!!!

Gotcha YA!!!! This is my new 2006 Honda CBR 1000RR that I just picked up on Tuesday. It is right now still a virgin, totally bone stock, but the mods are on the way.

I know some of you think I am nuts for getting rid of my RC51, but the Inline 4 Gods made me do it. This bike is just sick!!! It has plenty of power and corners so nice. Of course I gopt a great deal on it with it being the end of the year. If you are in the market for a new bike go check out West Coast Powersports in Clearwater and ask for Andy!!!

I had a 2004 HOnda CBR 1000RR and there is a night and day difference bewteen the two bike. Much lighter, more power, different engine and gearbox internals........I love it!!!

Dude, just a few months ago, you were going on and on about the RC 51...how nice it is, blah blah blah...

So, what happened???

Nice bike, though...I love the way those CBR 1000RRs look

i didnt think it was a new motor...

the difference between the 05-06 1000rrs were minimal.
they shortened the wheel base 5mm. for sharper turn in.
"cut 15lbs."
"made 10hp more."
new bodywork.

anyway nice bike i like the all black & red/black

The top end of the motor is new...rest is the same


Wicked....when I was on that RC it made me a better rider and that is what I loved about it...then I rode a friends kawaski zx6r the other day and missed the smoothness and power rush of the inline motor
