New Honda CB1000R
Tonight our time is the big release of the new CB1000R in Europe. It boasts 140 plus ponies and is claimed to be faster to 130kph than a Fireblade. That's not surprising because the Hornet/919 was faster to 160 than a GSXR of the same year, but after 160 the GSXR would leave it in its dust. One jounalist asked why anyone would want that acceleration, well it came in bloody handy passing truck and trailer units.
Anyhoo the motorcycling press will be full of photos and reports starting tomorrow.
There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one. - Joey Dunlop
