OK we'll see for 2008 very soon (but I at least I suspected the 10R winner of the "straight line"!)

By the way Steve, I just dropped a new motor in the 04 R1. 1050cc 13.5 to 1 JE Pistons, Graves Superbike spec Int & Exh. Cams (sorry can't divulge how I got those puppies!) Carrillo rods, Orient Express ported head & radius valve job & last but not least a DJ ign. module to get the most out of the motor when dyno tuning time comes. I'm hoping for 180 to 185 RWHP. I'll print all the peaks & valleys of the dynoed motor when I can get a lil' break in on the motor.
This baby was walking away from 07 Gixxer 1ks' before the motor, I took it out for a ride and as soon as I touched 6.5k rpms in any of the first 4 gears she was clawing for the sky. Didn't go past that due to having only 25 miles on her.

Word is that Honda has backed up the release date for the 2008 CBR1000 to April.
Anyone else heared this?

Come'on now stevie! You should know me better than that by now. I would hope that she'll be able to outrun the new ZX10 in a straight line (cuz nothin else will). As far as suspenders, I'll give you some refresher photos.
I'm thinkin that the 10 is gonna hold it's own in the corners too!

I'am planning on it. The last 2 years I've planned on going & had to cancel for one reason or another. I've heard that local law enforcement has gotten completely out of control during BW. That in itself might keep me from coming.

Ugly? Are you fucking kidding me? Only liter bike that is ugly is the CBR. Not much is different that would make the 10 ugly compared to last years.

Well skippy, around here we try to keep the less intelligent folk in their proper forums. You fit right in with the senseless babble that's taking place on the CBR forum. This forum tends to stick to useful info. of which you've given none!
