    Me too. You can't get more underdog than a Bandit. But then I like corners more than warp speed straight line runs.
    Speed doesn't kill people.

    Slight thread hi-jack

    Don't suppose anyone can tell me if Yamaha has an R1 in the pipeline that can compete? I like the bragging rights idea, but bragging is about all I could do with a litre bike. I like our local Yamaha dealer, so would prefer to put my money with the fellas I like...

    [QUOTE=Dafe]I've noticed that the 2006 CBR1000RR comes in 2 price ranges. The Repsol bikes are a few grand more expensive than the black, red and grey models.
    Does anybody know what extras you get for your money?

    Wait for it ........ You get an extra sticker kit of Repsol sponsors that get applied to the lower fairing. Also I believe there is a rear seat cowl.

    For the road you will have to find out which you like the best. 2006 CBR's come out in March. They are different to the 2005's

    Have fun.

    Also, The Suzuki 2006 GSXR is 23 grand new, by far the most expensive of the two.
    Can people here please provide me with good hard facts about which bike is better and why?
    I'm wanting a bike for pure performance, road and trackdays too.
    I've heard the Honda has fabulous steering and suspension.....But the Gixxer has the speed.
    Basically the repsol fireblade is just a stock standard fireblade, just with the repsol paint scheme. The price difference is merely for the paint job. I laughed when I found this out at the local dealer, but I see that people are still buying them @ two and a half grand just for the paint! Can't see the point really, I reckon the paint scheme on my 600 is better, but obviously others think otherwise
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
