Haven't seen anything yet, but I'm almost positive they'll come out with something. Hell, if I knew how to make plastics and whatnot, I would be creating a prototype right this second to sell. With all the negative things I've heard about that taillight location, I would be rich overnight.
Call me stubborn, but I will NOT buy a 2007 until they either change the taillight or I find a suitable aftermarket mod to replace it. Until then, I'm extremely happy with my 06.

Yeah, the whole tail light thing seems a bit strange. I can see it for trackdays, but really, how many people go to the track on a regular basis, or even somewhat often. Probably like 5-10%. I'm sure someone will come up with something, but until then it looks like crap.

i'm just overall pissed about the 07 RR, I was promised much more (slipper clutch) by someone I know for a fact has ridden the damn thing! actually 2 guys that have ridden it hinted there would be a slipper clutch
the tailight thing doesn't bother me a whole lot, just because if I bought it, it'd be a racebike in less than a week but it definitely doesn't look great

So, do we know for fact there is no slipper clutch? I was thinking that was still unconfirmed? I know there was a Honda press release, but I thought the clutch was not mentioned one way or the other......?

But let`s wait, it`s hard to believe they are that stupid at Honda...
after the pedrosa/hayden thing its quite possible that they are
i'm tryin to hunt down josh hayes and get a definite answer on the slipper clutch thing but if they didn't list it in the specs then it probably won't be there

Oh yes, because as we all know, the ego of two men who ride for repsol honda on a factory sponsored bike, which really isn't what the 600rr is at all, is definitely a show of the people who market and manufacture the consumer supersport bike... 
Look, 90% of you whack jobs will never need a slipper. it's just something else on the bike that you can say came from racing technology... just like the RR at the end of the name.

Why is it that people are willing to do all sorts of things to make their bikes look like racebikes???? Everything from removing mirrors, removing lights, all sorts of race stickers, stupid fender eliminators that put the license plate in a precarious positions to all sorts of various engine and performance mods. And then even go so far as to make some of the most stupidest decision on the street involving speed.
But then when it comes to the one (AND ONLY ONE) thing that will truly make your bike look like a racebike, people get into all sorts of hissy fits??? Of course that one thing that will make your bike look like a racebike is to to RIDE IT ON THE TRACK!!
As someone has already said, that's the purpose of this particular "feature". To make it easy to take to the track. Why don't you guys just take advantage of that.

'cause you obviously missed mine. But whatever...I never claimed to be an expert in grammar. You obviously don't agree with me. That's fine.
