      They are called Frame Sliders, and as you said their purpose is to protect the expensive body frame from getting scratched. Some say that its meant to keep the engine from contacting the ground in case of a fall.

      If you are referring to rubber block things fixed on a fairing, its to protect the frame.


      Sadly, CBR 1000RR A9's accessories are not easily available specially in india.

                40 - 45 kmph ... you can do that in 1st right ... why 6th ? I thought you were gonna say something like 150kmph ... although they say you can hit 160kmph on 1st gear on SBK's

                    Thanks amandeep, thats a lovely resource .... I am quite surprised that they say R1 lacks power compared to other bikes.
                    A must read for someone new to superbikes and is looking to buy one.

                    • seriously saying when i saw current model of blade in 2007 expo i was coz i just love the older one but slowly slowly it captured my mind and i become addicted. Its like a Scotch whiskey it captures you slowly and then after some time its on your mind and you cant help it.
                      I wonder when i will be able to buy this Machine.
                      i tried to built my own 476cc engine for my thunderbird but it was a flop

                      Now i am planing to buy a used 1000cc car engine that will cost me around 70k and will couple it with RD350 gear box lets see what happens may be it will work

                        • ^^ Guess he's had enough of the controversy and so have we ... but i thought the blade might have gone out after that episode ... or maybe fireblah is customizing the paddock stand to match the blade ...

                          • The Blade is having long rides regularly.
                            Even today the blade is supposed to have a 300km ride with her sister.
                            Fireblah, where are the pics???
