That bikes the shit and yes it's a real bike. Mugen is owned by Honda's son and his bikes are as badass as the Honda cars they build. Screw the R1 LE, I'll take the Mugen CBR1000RR.

cannot stand when ppl do that... like when ppl dress up a normal C5 to make it look like a Z06. ugh. plz, don't. get the real thing, or don't do it. it's a different kind of rice, imo.

wtf r u talking about?

I'm putting gold Marchesini wheels, forks & center part of rotors will be powder coated to gold... so now tell me how does that make R1 LE? Also R6 doesn't come in LE OR SP version, they just don't have R6 with gold wheels and ohlins (sp?) suspension. Also they only made 500 LE for U.S. and my guess is all of them were sold before they hit dealers... plus I wanted 600cc not 1000cc. Also R6 and R1 aren't even identical to each other in design wise.... so how will my R6 look like R1 LE?

Is there anything wrong with using the same mods as the R1-LE? You probably would even be saving money at the end?


btw Jatt...did you end up getting the pazzo levers? I got a set for my R1, and its by far one of the best mods you can do. Cosmetic and functional

Had to ruin it by mentioning that price didnt you....j/p. From what riders that have lighter rims say, its makes a big difference. The bike feels faster, and its easier to manuver in curves.

ok your situation is ever-so-slightly different but, you ARE dressing it up with LE-esque influence, right. BUT - not as bad as I thought.

mugen 600rr

http://www.ridermagazine.com.hk/hong...2154114588.htm

seems like Mugen is putting their own spin to honda's motorcycles and motard. Essentially a kit that can be had for 2-4k (minus the paintjob)
