Talking New addition to the family. Non-Honda though. 56k will die. :)

OK, I jumped ship this one time...
This new bike is stunning though and at the top of the 600class. 17,500rpm redline, built in and programmable shift light, 133hp@ 352lbs, adjustable ride height, adjustable high/low speed compression, slipper clutch etc...

My CBR600RR is now a straight track/race bike which I'll christen as such this weekend at Spring Mountain Raceway. I can't wait. Anyway, it's two-wheeled but I hope you enjoy...

lol Thanks. She's definately something else. Built for the racetrack, but that duty goes to my Honda.

Baller, not even. I sold my Integra and paid the CBR off and then got this baby for the street and occasional trackdays...

Again, sweet bike Eric! Now, lets trade bikes. Instead of using the 600rr as your track bike, use my F4i I'll take great care of that rr

What better time than now to learn?! Take a local MSF course and get your liscence! Thanks. I actually wish they had a liquid silver, but the 50th anniversary scheme is definately tight!

No need for envy bro. Just save up a little money for a down payment and get one. It's more addicting than mod'ing cars... ESPECIALLY when you take 'em to the track!

I don't think so. Your F4i would still be fun at the track though. Now hurry up and get some full leathers and take it to the track!

shit.. that's my dream right there. I wanted to keep TSX and get 06 r6 instead of trading in for a new s2000. But right now, I'm even busy affording TSX financially.

Nice bike man. Sounds like you've been riding for a while. Im surpirsed the 600's are still doing it for you. The R6's are a blast though, a little to light for me

I miss my TLR

Thanks. I got mine for $10,400 out the door. That's for the 50th anniversary colors and I'm in California, so don't pay any more.

Thanks. Actually I've only been riding for 8 months. I have friends who are liscenced racers and taught me some skills though and they said I picked it up quick. 600's are definately doin it for me. 10 second 1/4 miles out of the box is NOT slow, mix that on to a road course and you CAN'T get bored. Especially when I upgraded the gearing in the RR and ESPECIALLY when I'm passing alot of 1000/liter's on the outside line at the tracks.

What happened to your TLR?

Believe me, I will be heading to the track someday. It all depends on how fast I pick up riding (I've only been riding for just over a month) and if I can afford the hobby. Tires are damn expensive! hahaha. If I'm really lucky, I would be able to keep my f4i in the future for track use and pickup a new 600rr.

btw. what part of so. cal are you in? I'm going to be visiting a friend in Long Beach on March 17-19th. You got a beater bike for me to ride on
