Will Honda cover the costs of the retrofit? I'm worried that after all the efforts to increase power and handling that there is nothing left over for covering such costs....

Ummm I just finished watching a tape of Superbikes (and Supersport) on TV, I didn't think those white and green bikes were doing too bad... :whistle:

Certainly with CBR600RRs first second and third there for a while it must have made all the Suzuki and Yamaha riders feel a little less manly. (Or should have?:devil2: )

Kawasaki riders apparently can't count...

I wouldn't have thought that someone riding a bike that weighs as much as a Harley was in a position to poke fun..

Shoot, frame paint only lasting 30 years!

Take it back to the dealer there Bonez.
Clearly a case for a warranty claim.

Nice ... except that the '06 and '07 Blades don't have the 'FireBlade' name on them anywhere. It's just the CBR1000RR.
