I took a test ride on a Tri Colour 2016 Honda CBR1000RR and it was eye opening.
The handling was sublime, it just tips into corners by itself.
I had a 2006 GSXR1000 back in 2008-2010 and I don't remember it handling like this.
It had excellent brakes, nice fuelling and good midrange power.
It probably needs a tooth dropped on the front sprocket as the gearing is really high.
Only drawback was the sporty position as my FZ1N is like an old comfortable armchair. The CBR put a bit of pressure on my back and neck.
I'm having a midlife crisis lol and figure I want my last sportsbike before turning 50 in three years time.
