The 2005 Honda CBR1000RR Repsol Edition came from the factory with a black frame. In 2007, Honda switched the Repsols to raw aluminum frames. There have been numerous uninformed comments concerning the video bike as being a "fake" due to the frame color.

@@GuerreroDelInfo fully agree. I always loved these blades. My mate bought the new 08 when they changed the shape and I never liked it. I like the fat back end of the 05. I have a mint condition low mileage hm plant Honda model and its 😍stunning! It's 16years old now.and still looks good amongst the newer bikes, in fact my bike will get a lot of attention compared to the newer bikes. Seems like this model was/is a fav to many superbike riders As for the ride this thing isna pleasure to ride, no mod cons just a very good electronic steering damper and the feel of your right wrist. Imo that's all you need for that raw unedited feeling. With only 8k on the clock this badboy has all the power that it came with from the factory. Slight variation with the sprockets and the front wheel will come up easily off the clutch in 1,2,3 and 4th if your going quick enough. Bike will hit top end of 180 ish pretty comfortably. If your ever going that quick your going too quick so these newer bikes with top ends going towards the 200mph is just pointless to me. It's way more important to have a smooth PowerPlant with a strong mid range and I fee Honda got it close to perfect with the 05 blade! The presenter of this clip got one thing bang on though. This gearbox does not like to be tickled. I learnt early on that you have to be very positive with gear shifts either wise u can hit false neutrals and the one thing he is 110% correct on is the change from 1st to 2nd....it is very clunky but something you get used to pretty quickly. I do wonder if a diff map setting would smooth this out but its something you really don't notice when u get used to the bike. Imo this is one of the best looking Hondas you can buy and there are still a "FEW" out there with low miles. These are close to being a classic sports bike so just watch the price go through the roof for a real clean low miles one! #Honda powered😉

I like the review on the Honda CBR 1000 Repsol Edition period I was looking into buying that particular bike. you give a lot of important information

Watching this in Guyana South America. Just imported my 900 CBR Fireblade from the UK. Old but awesome machine. Jetted and geared to run with the GSXRs, ZX10s and R1s

You're doing great vids my Freind. I love the concept as I used to ride in the not so distant past I also own a fire blade. Also a zx7 and a monster 900. There can be alot said about older bikes as many still have relevance for people looking for the sport bike thrill without having to finance there life away. Would live to see more vids on classics like the monster 900 the r1 or even the yzf' 's of the day all classic and icons and an r1 would still hold it's own today. Thanks and keep it up!

now this is what i call a review! Kudos!! all the information on the bike combined with great footage! One request: Could you sometime review the 06-07 gsxr 600?

bought the grey and black 2004 in MINT cond with 20k miles ... now it has 45k+.... great bike and would have to commend you on your great review ... accurate from my perspective ... stay safe ... thank you

Amazing bike very well built and so beautiful!

You sold me. This is going to be my next bike.

Thanks for this video. I'm looking into buying one of these beasts.

Very beautiful, this bike. How does it behave in relation to 954 and 1000 06-07? there are many differences between these machines. I know that from 954 to 1000 everything has been changed. But in practice, walking in them, can many differences be felt? the 954, looking, looks smaller, lighter, compact and fun, and it also has a descending object door under the back seat. Anyway, for Sunday rides and quick rides, which one would be the best?

Nice review. Can you do a review of the 2008-2010 kawasaki ninja zx-10r?

so fast you don't see stop signs😂😂😂

Do the oem farings have anything like a vin sticker where you can tell if they are original to bike? I find on liter bikes they shift to 2nd much smoother at higher rpms.

Heck ya, I'm all about that 04-05 Honda CBR1000RR RArrrrRrr!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Dude!!! Yours Used Bikes Reviews are AWESOME, wonderful made, very informational, argued. Nice to watch :) i can"t whait, what will be your next reviewed bike :)) And i have a little recommendation on bikes.

I noticed you stated this bike had "20k miles on the clock", however your odometer reads 7k miles. either way, love the used bike reviews! when is the next video coming?!!!!

Bought an 04 brand new when they first came out and had multiple problems. Proud such as crank bearing, low oil consumption, stator failure and the coolant line dry rotten and explode. There was a problem with buying replacement parts as they were discontinued or unavailable in the first couple of years of owning it. I kept it for 6 years and should of bought a GSXR 1000R instead.

please do a review of the Honda CBR 929 & 954!!!

Great bikes...like the repsol colors and well built.

What a great video!!

Very informative video

fantastic review , please review yamaha yzf r1 2004 to 2006 please

i wish other manufacturers would make the gas tank fairing instead of painted gas tank where gas tank is part of part of the body work, so if you drop it and put it a dent in the gas tank you aren't stuck with a dented gas tank, just slap on a new fairing over it, wonder why other manufacturers haven't caught on yet, just seems much more practical from a cosmetic stand point, no dent pulling no repainting

Quick question: I got myself one of these and I love it. But compared to my old Kawasaki ZX10, the brake lever has a little more "free play" before it actually starts gripping the brakes. Like 3/4 of an inch. I got used to it now, but I wonder if that's normal. Any owners out there have any advice? The brake fluid is new and the brakes are working otherwise perfect. Thanks!

***** Hi. Thanks for the additional response. Yes, my fluids were completely renewed. And the brakes work absolutely great. Nice firm grip with no saggyness or softness, front and back. The only thing I noticed is that the "free play" (for lack of a better description) of the front brake is more than what I was used to (I used to ride a ZX10). My old bike would "click" the rear brake switch at about 5mm and then the brakes would begin to bite. On my Fireblade I need to pull the lever about 10mm before the brake switch clicks and after that the brakes will engage (this was measured from the end of the lever to the edge of the handlebar stub). The brake levers are not OEM so it may be just that the lever and master cylinder have a little more play. I ordered a replacement master cylinder just to be sure that nothing is wrong with that. I will also check if the calipers are moving freely. The bike has 15K miles and the previous owner took really good care of it, so I hope everything is fine and I don't need to rebuild the calipers. Cheers! EDIT: I forgot to mention that the rotors are new, so that's one thing to check of my list as well. I got used to the brake as it is now but I'll be working on the bike during the winter and see what happens.

CBR Repsol is beautiful. 😍

Bought mine brand new 0mi on it in 2004. I don't feel the clunkiness in the gears but that's me been riding the same bike since new. I'm tall so the weight forward kills my wrist. long distance rides suck if they don't have twistes. But overall love my 04 1000rr

I got my 05 in 2008. Its a great bike, but All this driving in this neighborhood.... did you get it out of 2nd gear? I have absolutely no need for a newer bike. As a matter of fact, I just did oil, coolant, front and rear brakes, new chain and sprockets in the past 2 weeks. Mine is black and silver.

I would say that the 05-06 GSXR 1000 would be the more comfortable liter bike, although this CBR is a close second. I think 380KM is attainable and soft luggage can be easily affixed to the rear of the bike. Any supersport will wear on your knees, wrists and lower back over a longer trip so I usually take a break every 70-80 miles. Thanks for watching!
