No. U.S. spec ducs are supposed to be in mph. in fact all U.S. bikes should be. either its the wrong speedo, or you can choose which to display on the F4i.
Sweet bike by the way

CBRs are always so much more neutral in turns. very easy to ride.

Hot bike & congrats on the purchase.

Did you take a look at the YZF-R6? It seems everyone and their mother wants one of those.

yea, i totally looked into the R6 cuz i LOVE the color...but i dint get it since the rider position was too aggressive. Im six foot 2 and the pegs are sooo high up that it feels like im leaning way too much. Also, its more of a track bike and since its my first, the CBR is more rider friendly and more forgiving when u make mistakes....but ill look into for my next bike.,...except ill get the R1..

yea, well SOME bikers do that....either they are really good stunt riders, or they are plain stupid and want to show off....its what biker people call "squids" (dont ask y, i dont kno) But yea, it looks hella crazyyy...i wouldnt even pull one of those even if i could ride well since its very dangerous....one rock or uneven pavement, and kiss ur ass goodbye!

Actually, its coming down that sucks! your brake pads are always rubbing. so when you wheelie for a long time, the front tire will stop spinning. when you come down on a tire the has stopped, and its not straight, it will give you a bad head shake. If you are in a fast turn, and you hit a rock or rocks, you'll usually slide a little and push wide, and then the tires will catch again. you really gotta trust your tires.
I've gotten into a few situations on my R6 and ZX-7R where I was going in too hot and thought I couldn't make it, but i just leaned over more cause I though I was going to crash anyway, and came out okay. even with the muffler dragging on the ground!

as for the R6, it really is a fun track bike. I managed to grind my left engine side cover in turn 1 at our little track a few times.

The CBRs, all of them, are really great all around bikes. they do everything well. wheelies, stoppies, turns, and good for drag racing too! I ran a 10.9 the day after I bought my R6!
