i want a repsol.i keep holding off because sources here are saying that the cbr 1000r is going to be a completely differant bike all together than the previous years,a change for the better?so my delima is do i wait and see if the rumors are true since i cant not get any solid info,or just buy a 07 repsol,since they might not even offer the repsol in 2008.so has any got some facts regarding the 2008 1000r.....thx...1 fast 929

i would say if you can get the 07 repsol go for it.. from my experience they are hard to come by.. I had to wait a couple months for mine... dealer had no idea IF and WHEN they would get an 08 repsol.. just my 2 cents

I say hold off. Ive seen repsols for sale used with low miles for a good price. The 08 could be the Bestest bike in the whole wide world! Or not. JMO.

im agreeing with stewie just hold off on it and buy a used one cheap or get that 08. its better to be patient then to mess up.

I would wait and see. It's mid-season and I assume info. will be released shortly... It's gonna cost ya though $$$$$$$.
Unless you wait until a year from now. Another way to look at it is you could wait forever, everything always gets
better the more time passes but then you never end up with anything. I hear the '09 is gonna have...........

What ^^ said!
I bought a 05'' had it for 3months then the 06'' came out just had to have it..so traded for the 06'' since than have spent way too much on extras.. then the 07'' came out but its the same. thought I would of had to trade up but NO I feel in love with my bike and its set up with all the extra goodies Ive put on. Even though it aint the latest model...it is better due to the extras Ive put on to personalise it too me.. In short I would get what available now and so long as U get to ride it now!(No wasting time dreaming of what could be). just my 2cents..

There should be a new Honda CBR1000RR introduced this Fall as a 2008 model. The bike is rumored to be substantially lighter than the current version (going on a diet similar to the new CBR600RR), but maintain its traditional in-line four cylinder engine configuration (rather than a v-four or five previously rumored).

The bike is also rumored to homologate several new electronic systems for future superbike competition, including traction control. It is possible Honda will also feature switchable engine maps, similar to the current Suzuki GSX-R1000

Seems like a sportsbike needs one map...the fastest one.

Look up the thread with the pics of the new cbr 1k.  Its in here somewhere.  There will be a new cbr1k, it has the front end of the new 600.  Tail lights hanging like on a R6 and a shorty exhaust.

You think the pics you see on some forum are real and no one else has them anywhere?

They surely will not have another repsol next year but they will have another one in probably 2 years.  I think they decided to have one maybe every 5 years but since they won the motogp championship this year they decided to have another one out.  The new bike will have repsol colors but probably won't be available for a couple of years unless they decide its a money maker.
