hah....its finally gonna happen....I remember back in 98 when I wanted the all new R1.it spanked everything out there,and after a few years......it just got outdone by the gixx1k.and now.....a few years after its debut,the gsxr 1k will soon be getting 2nds and 3rd in the SBOTY,if they dont update and change the bike up....at least technology is going the right way for us bikers,instead of staying the same for years on end....I wouldnt mind seeing the honda 1k or the new kawak taking the top spot for once,and seeing the 1.9 billion gsxr riders scratching thier head,admiring the new honda and kawak....just my 02

ok, judging by what i see on the new honda 1000's, they are going to be junk for stunting. They look really cheaply made, not very strong, there isn't much of a seat and a really weak looking subframe. There is undertail (UGLY AS ****) exhaust which will cause some issues with 12's...even if you cut it, if you put your foot in teh 12 bar it's going to put exhaust all over your foot.
it also looks like it puts you leaning way forward with a cramped style...not bad for racing, definately bad for stunting. all around it doesn't look like it could take abuse like the older bikes can.
i'll stick with my 929 or probably a 900rr if my 929 dies.

well, if i had it i'd stand and dump the clutch while holding redline...hoepfully when it slams 12 it'll rip that **** *** exhaust off.
but you could cut it down and put a bar, but if you put your foot in the bar exhaust will blow all over your foot. it's just stupid to have undertail exhaust.

im sure you can relo the exaust but the new bikes are leaned twards racing not stunting for whatever reason....i guess we are the only ones who when lookin to buy a bike say "**** i bet this thing will scrape tail nice jus gotta chop that pipe down a bit but itll be aiight"
