Default Who rides on 2 wheels?

2007 Honda CBR600rr
Mods: flush mount turn signals, integrated tail light, Zero Gravity double bubble windshield, carbon fiber yoshi carbom slip on exhaust, frame and swingarm sliders.

I got this recently, before this I had a 2003 CBR600F4i, great bike, but these 2007+ rr are fantastic and I found it for a great deal.

REstoring a '94 Vittorazzi Minimoto I brought from Italy in a suitcase back in '94. I plan to use this in the parades with the Shriners. 39cc and I've been clocked just over 50 mph on it.


I'm really bad at taking pics but you can see my '09 R1 - raven in the back ground


You can follow the restore updates here

Also, if you would care to donate (FREELY) to the Shriners Childrens' Hospitals let me know and I will link you up with the appropriate point of contact

My two babies...well until I sell the FZR. 2005 R6 in the front and 92 FZR 600 in the back.



Mods (on the R6): Stars , Stomp Grip tank grips, Flush mounts, Yoshimura exhaust - with that was able to get rid of the passenger foot pegs all together since now I have a carbon fiber hanger for the exhaust.


My solo seat cowl came yesterday...this bike seats ONE now!



This weekend I will add these...





Plus I will be cutting my fairings to add the frame sliders my mom bought me for Christmas.

You do know there are no cut sliders available, right? Well, that is unless you want to cut the fairings.

I don't trust the no cuts ones. Heard too many stories about them just snapping off when they hit ground. Plus, Mark helped his friend cut his fairings a while back and they came out great.

How does that electronic shift work out? I've never seen it on a bike before. Do you have to pull the clutch, hit a button, then release the clutch or what? Is it stock on this bike or was it an add in with the Power Commander?

It was an added feature... you wire it up down by the shifter and then go into the computer (Power commander) and set the RPM at which you want it to cut the clutch so you can shift clutchless.... if that makes sense.... It's pretty weird getting use to, but is a cool feature... I currently have it disabled.

That's a nice Ride! You guys need to come to Idaho and ride with us in August. It might get dirty though.

It is a glorified girls bike(you listening Neece?). I want a 450 or 530 EXC bad......but the local KTM dealer just had the KTM dealership pulled.....that makes me nervous. I need it to be street legal, to get to trails and whatnot. I love teh Husky TEs too, but nearest dealer is in Greenville SC and Atl.
