Yeah is there new CBR XX coming down the pipe? I am interested in this too....

 

[mile_eater]

Yeah... Honda is rumored to be working on a CBR XX. I think we're talking 1300cc's. Motorcycledaily.com put something up about it, and there has just been general chit chat about it for the last year or so.



I'm SO stoked about it.

Article mentioning it.

I think I'll do something positivly unique and actually comment on the Desmosedici....with all those valve train gears, should make lovely music!

Prediction....in the year 2040, an electronic avatar of Phil Read will read the narrative for "The Superior Sounds of IC Engines of Classic Street Bikes" or something like that. This bike will be featured on track number 3 of the download (as CD's and other personal media will be long extinct).

Re: Buz gets George W. Bush special treatment.

Dude, you're no prophet. I saw an interview with the head of U.S. Ducati last summer in which he hinted that this bike would be coming.

On another note: I think you're sexually attracted to Dubya.

Just a theory.

THANK YOU. As a idiotic 3X Ducati owner, it is painfully apparent that even if Jesus returned riding a Ducati, this group would bash the brand. You can buy a bike with 3 million h.p. for thousands less than a Duck, we get it. Thanks for the info. If I wanted a bike that 200,000 other people had, I would buy a Japanese bike. If I wanted a track bike to beat around on, ditto. People buy bikes because of the character of the machine, not just based on dyno tests.

Re: it's too expensive!

Sat on a Multistrada last weekend for about 15 seconds. That was about all my backside could take. Not sure what they were thinking when they designed a bike you would want to sit on for a long period of time but cant...

 

[39220]

Thrice the idiot you are I am getting ready to join the ranks with a ST3 and then maybe pickup a late model Super Sport down the road. It's an endless (and pointless) argument about the twins and fours. All manufactures bring something good to the table. Pick what turns you on and go with it.

 

[33129]

I'm not sure of the upkeep but that would keep it up.

Re: Buz gets George W. Bush special treatment.

I think it goes well beyond physical attraction. This borders on a combination of stalking and OCD.

Re: You know what they say

"I scored in the 90th percentile on the GRE verbal portion."

So what? I know plenty of college professors who are complete dip****s with no idea of how the world works.

Test scores mean jack ***** in the real world, as most people who live in it know.

 

[Jexter]

Wow. Not that I don't believe you, but where did you come up with a list like that? A "know thy enemy" sorta thing?

 

[kpaul]

Re: Buz gets George W. Bush special treatment.

I predicted this two years ago.

 

[13630]

Actually, I just recycled the list from a post I made last year in an argument on the relative value of MO vs. MotorcycleDaily.
