2007 CBR1000RR. Ever since i got rid of the Triumph 675 last year i have kinda missed having the sport bike.
The 650r supermoto is fun, but highways are not happening on it for more than 10 miles or so. Ill post up some pics once i get it...

(prepares self for the your going to die responses...)
 
How much?

I'm looking at picking up a new Ducati Monster 1100 EVO next month...or whenever my local dealership gets one in stock. I should probably list my current bike soon so that I have some extra cash to put down...just paid my taxes so cash is something I don't have much of on hand at the moment.
 
It has some miles (15K), but the guy has some bills hes trying to pay. 4500 bucks..
Could not pass it up.
New tires, chain and sprockets, fresh valve adjustment, coolant change and oil change.
Its not modded at all (still has the ugly fender on the back) except for the arrow slip on. Never been down and adult owned, guy used it as a commuter.
 
I know... Considering what book is, its one i could not pass up.

I have a few parts purchased already. Speedohealer, and a couple of other things.

The biggest of which are HIDS. Honestly, for anybody that has not ridden with HID lights before on your bike its the best safety thing you could do to ride your bike. Stock lights SUCK on most sportbikes.

Stock lights suck on most bikes period...it's not just sportbikes.
 
Great deal on a great bike. 20+ mi. on my '05. The power is smooth, but comes on fast, much faster than that 675 you had. Respect that power & you'll be fine. The transition from my 600 was smooth.
