Advantages: well built, reliable, practical and comfortable. Disadvantages: A bit bland
...In 1987 Honda introduced the CBR600, which is one of the longest running motorcycle models. Most bikes are redesigned and given a new model name, the CBR has had three major revisions and kept it name. This is probably because the CBR was the top selling motorcycle in most years since its introduction and although the latest looks vastly different from the first it is still, at heart, a CBR - which is a bike that is well built, reliable, practical, comfortable and at the same time one of the best sports bikes in its capacity.
I have had a CBR600FP for two years. I bought it with 24,000 miles on the clock, to replace an earlier model, a CBR600FJ. I use the bike as my main transport so I wanted a bike that would rack up the miles while being reliable, comfortable but still able to chase sports bikes when the mood takes me...

...for Vincent) went down to the local Motorcycle shop, which he did used to work for many years ago, before it got taken over and made some enquiries.
Everyone never wants to take a step back they always want to go forward. Obviously another 350cc would not please Vinnie he has to go one step further. He asked Tony who is part owner of the shop about the new HondaCBR600F. Like all salesmen and women it is their job to sell a product and my dad was well and truly convinced about the bike.
Now convinced it was the right bike for him it was now onto the second phase. Bare in mind this was all spur of the moment and he was just looking for a new bike possibly to invest in sometime in the near future, he asked what type of part exchange deal he could get. His old bike was now 10 years so it was not the most valuable item he owned.

Advantages: Looks good, sounds good, cheap to buy. Disadvantages: Makes a 50cc bike illegal at 16 just like any other exhaust.
...I have an Aprilia RX50 racing, 2006. I have an arrowexhaust on it. it was already on there when i baught it, but the standard exhaust restricted it to 25 mph, but the full arrowexhaust kit makes it go to 55 to 60 mph. It looks alot better than the standard exhaust. They are easy to get hold of if you want one. For a full arrowexhaust system usually costs around £185. Arrow make many exhausts for many different bikes. When mine had the standard exhaust on it sound like a broken hair dryer like a standard moped, but now it sounds like a 125 cc motocross bike. I learnt how to ride it in 15 minutes, that was the first time i have ever ridden a geared motorbike. Even my dad loves it and he has a Yamaha R1 which is 20 x more powerful. All those people thinking of getting one, get an arrow. Hope this helps....
