LOL

Well what an awesome afternoon, firstly my CBR passed its MOT (800miles since last year ) so thats all good!

Dropped mine off and straight onto the 2011 CBR600RR, first impressions instantly were the riding position was slightly different, the pegs were higher mainly but within 10mins i felt at home on her.

The brakes were the first major surprise they are AMAZING! Nearly did a stoppie at the first set of lights

Set off on a planned route on familiar roads and straight away was riding them faster than i ever have, imagine how quick i would be once i was familiar with the bike.................!!

The mid range grunt from 7000rpm - 15000rpm redline was superb as was the noise but this one is fitted with an Akro pipe (baffle in i may add) it just inspired confidence and almost made u ride quickly but i have no doubt that it could get u into serious trouble but equally it would get u out of it too!!

Overall ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING in everyway, a real precision tool that definitely had the WOW factor once riding! The only minor grumble or two was bugger all happening until 7000rpm and the ‘dash & clocks’ look so cheap.....................

All in all a great afternoon

Late replying to this but a friend of mine, sort of, just bought the honda CBR600RR
It's a mean machine, it looks hot, and he said its mental to ride.
