    A Honda dealer said that?
    We haven't had it good from Honda for about 10yrs - the time it seems to take them to release a new model.

    Blackbird anyone? or perhaps a Firestorm maybe?

    Well, Suzuki will be laughing with logic like that...

    I can't figure out why the nakeds are so expensive, the R&D is mostly already sorted and paid for by the time the nakeds use the bits... With the exception of some stuff.

    I used to have a Z1000 and I'd go for a new one in a beat. Couldn't be bothered with Hondas actually... I think a Speed Triple would be my next choice. That said, I do enjoy the convenience of a fairing these days, sitting at speed without any of the wrestling the wind to worry about.

    CB1000R... good bike.

    Weights like a feather
    Rides like a pixie
    Smooth like silk
    Twist your arm likes a brute

    Finely balanced.

    Well, your review made mine look a little long

    That garage needs more space. Think the landlord will be happy if we throw his stuff out so we can get more bikes in?
