hi guys,

i added a new steed to the Uly...

as I work for the big "H" i have a Honda bike for my daily commute and having had sensible bikes such VFR800, Transalps and CBF1000 I decided this time i would go for something for radical...
picked up my new toy today...a CB1000R Extreme Red edition.





now i have 3 weeks to run her in before the trip over to the Isle of Man TT!!!

Hooray...
thx Lars

That seat looks pretty comfy. Love the color.

The red parts looks like a donkey doing a back flip. My brain wanders off sometimes.

Are you running it in the race or just going to watch?

Congrats.
I first saw one in Europe a couple of years ago and fell in love.

thanks guys,

not riding, but i may get a lap or two in led by the Honda rider John Mc Guiness etc...
she rides lovely...loads of grunt and almost the same short steering rake angle as a Buell!!!

handling is pretty sharp and ABS brakes keep you out of trouble...
only done 100k last night, but more to come this weekend...

thx Lars

A shorter exhaust would really show off that single sided swingarm better.
