  • 2012 Honda CBR1000RR (LEAKED)

    Leaked by Honda Hong Kong, these images are the first shots of the 2012 Honda CBR1000RR, and judging from our initial analysis, it looks like Honda is putting out only a cosmetically different version of the Fireblade for next year (*sigh*). Showing off the HRC tri-color paint scheme (that surely won't be coming to the United States), the majority of the new Blade looks quite familiar. Obviously the wheels, headlights, and air intake ducts have clearly been worked over, and we see some big-piston forks on the front suspension, but otherwise the mechanical bits and and the rear of the motorcycle look like the current model.

          Looks like only cosmetic changes. Nothing much else.
          The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

                    Beauty!, to me much sexier than a Hayabusa and seems more compact than an R1, always loved the RR's from Honda.
                    Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
                    More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
                    Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
                    Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
                    Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

                        good looking machine indeed.

                        look closely and you will find a happy marriage in the front design between the 08 and pre 08 model versions. The twin head lights are more stream lined/ sleek and not wide eyed like the 08 model.

                        This becomes the my dream litre class bike.


                        Thanks,

                          it indeed looks great, but should have come with more electronics.

                              But somehow I liked the round eyed look jd. Felt more sexier from certain angles...! Something like finely crafted aggression... that doesn't shout too much nor let it down..
