bike is nice... after riding the ABS 600, I can't imagine not having the ABS on the street (or even track day) version of this bike.
totally cool technology!

I like the Repsol colors but the Brits are getting a beautiful HRC scheme.
Screw England lets invade and take their pretty bikes!!

the ABS does add some weight, but I'd say that it's negligible compared to the benefits!

22 lbs is a lot of weight but easier to manage than roadrash and broken bones!!

I had ridden some of the old "chatter" ABS bikes and said never,ever. The new Honda system is great,makes me wish I had waited because I bought a CBR last year which I love but would definitely get ABS after trying an 09.

VIN000003 I was told by my sales guy that Honda kept the first 2 so this could be the first 09 Repsol
