Looks like the ZX10 might be the killer wheelie bike! :thumb
:wheelie

And if the 1000RR is anything like the 600RR, it will be the anti-wheelie bike. :down

I've been able to pull wheelies on my 600RR. :nanana

Not that it's impossible, but it's not the best bike for it. Thank Honda and their "mass centralization". Good for a race bike when you wanna keep the front end down, not so good for hooliganism when you want to get it up.

One of the UK magazines (God bless em) did a 600 shootout and part of it was rating the bikes on wheelie-ability, and the 600RR was by far the hardest bike of the group to wheelie. I believe they chose the ZX6R as the best wheelie bike, with the Gixxer and R6 close behind.

Hayabusas aren't the best bikes to wheelie either, but I sure wheelied mine plenty. But my 1000 is WAY easier to wheelie than the Busa. Part of the reason I got it, truth be known.
:wheelie

Nothing. I think he is referring to whoever spends more on add space in a magazine gets the favorable review of there motorcycle

Ill bet Honda makes that bike for 2 years before they decide the market was not ready for something that FUGLY and replace it wirh a real bike.

 

[GixxerPete]

Why does everyone think the 1000RR is fugly? :confused Looks pretty close to the 600RR, which I think is a good looking bike. My only complaint would be the gray lowers, should be color matched or black. The black one especially. Oh well, different strokes...
