So they say. Looks just like the new CBR1000RR, now theres a suprise! Claimed 155kg and 125hp. Actually in the red and black model it looks like a RC51 type air induction setup, the blue version is to lure Suzuki owners who walk into the wrong shop......

Very pretty. But, holy shit how many years is it going to take Honda to use up their surplus of those enormous butt ugly, made in 1983, indicators. Surely they can split them and sell the two halves as kayaks or fish ponds for jappo gardens?
They are so last century.

This looks like it might actually be the real thing, eh?
Got a link to some more info?
It looks a bit more radical - to keep up with the new offerings from Yamaha and Suzuki. Especially after all the whinging journalists wrote it off for not changing along with the 600s this year.
Wonder if they went with much-rumoured slipper-clutch?

You'd bloody well hope so. Not having one seems backward considering my 1995 Honda RVF has one, and the VFR400 before that had one too.

Especially considering the 05 Blade indicators are half the size.

It doesn't look shit. But it does look likey the crossed a K6 GSXR600/750 (Holes in the fairings) with a '06 R6 (Headlights, ram air) and stuck an underseat pipe on it.

I remember thinking the R6 looked a bit crap in pictures, but in the metal looks cool.

So we'll have to reserve judgement on shitness till it actually appears.

And hopefully, maybe by then, it'll corner like the gixxer
