I actually do agree with you to a large extent. I do not like it when people sacrifice safety for looks on the street. Just busting your balls man.

I rather tape up the taillight for that little 5% time at the track than have an ugly rear end 95% of the time.
I don't think its ugly at all...in fact, I really like it and it's going to be interesting to see what all those folks who are obsessed with "cleaning up their bike" do to overcome this hindrance to their self expression

As I mentioned in my other post above, it seems like it comes off easily for trackdays, which is great. 10/10 for Honda with creativity. Yamaha also has a similar setup on the R6 which removes the entire mud flap, turn signals and license plate, also a 10/10 idea.
What I do see wrong with Honda's thinking is their bikes always look so good - flowing lines, aerodynamic designs, good color choices, quality in building and overall design, then they put on a tail light that looks like a brick from your house that's just there like it was a last minute change.

yo Blue Fox, isn't that a 1000RR in your sig rather than a 600RR?

You guys are all wrong....there is a slipper clutch...but it just doesn't work...it just won't slip cause it's made so well...
and why would you buy a 07 if you have a 06?????????? especially if you do not like the looks of the tail...cause it's all about the race looks and how a race bike would suit me on the street...i may be stuck in traffic, but i look darn good and fast! i personally never hit the track and i barely ride...in fact my bike is on the battery tender like 363 days out of the year...so that's a total of about 48 hours i ride...and only to starbucks...but i just like to get my bike all raced prepped and look like a race bike when i ride to starbucks across the street for my caramel machiatto....
yea i'm a poser...but i look damn good!

I personally couldn`t care less
you are the first person on this board to use the phrase correctly!
slipper clutches won't make you faster...riding experience will...don't rely on technology to mask your inadequacies, like so many people do with tires and blame everything on tires...heck...i've used 207s, 208s, etc...and they all gripped well...though i don't like 207s...was just scary but all mental...
work on making yourself faster...and your skill and don't mask it...or else, when someone with a beat up F4i...or an F2 comes and pass you at the track...in a brand new whatever...1k, 2k, 3k quadruple R...you'll feel AND look like $#!T...
i personally think all the new bikes are HOT! except the zx14R...WTF? who the heck is riding in the deepest darkest part of the jungle? with all them lights...

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.
On the contrary, 90% of us will benefit from the slipper. The 10% who handle their throttle like it should be done and can slip non-slip clutch do not need one, for the rest of us it`s decreasing crash risk and second or two better lap times. For the road I do agree it may have less importance but still why not put it standard, the cost of slipper vs non-slipper can`t be that great...
I personally couldn't care less what came from where, I`m only interested in technology if it can make me ride faster i.e. hide the lack of talent and balls, simple as that
Benefit? well, maybe, but need? not at all. if you've got an rr now, save the cash on the 07 and buy a $700 yoyodyne slipper. if the 07 has a slipper, it's not going to be an honest to christ slipper, but rather exactly what Yamaha has, a slipper LIKE clutch... which is to say not a slipper at all.

Yeah, I don't care about slipper or not, besides, all bikes have a slipper clutch. It's your left hand slipping the clutch lever if you need it.
