A friend of mine that is an auto dealer picked up an 06' CBR1000RR last week that he is currently selling. I parked my XB12Ss in his garage yesterday and took it home with me. I have ridden another 1000rr a few years ago, right after I sold my CBR600F4, but the power of this bike is amazing. I'm probably not going to give up the Buell for it, but man it sure is tempting...
