Some pictures of my bosses new Honda CBR1000RR Repsol Edition and a shameless plug of my evo in the background.

 

WHATS UP WITH THE EXHAUST

its too much, i ripped all the stickers off my R6 the day i got it

 

nice exhaust!

looking at the pics I am getting second thoughts of selling my bike

 

wow awesome.. so what's the power output on this baby?

 

Im not sure i think he said it dyno'd around 180hp.

 

probably not, more like in the 150-160 range which is still more then enough!

 

I just checked factory claim is (just north of 170) and he said the repsol has been flashed or chipped or something like that.

 

thing with bikes is the power they claim is supposedley made when the bike is going really fast speeds, like 130mph and up, the air at that speed is shoved into the intakes, almost liked forced induction. thing is it can never be recreated on a dyno because they cannot recreate the same environment

Repsol 1000rr is just a sticker kit, he may have gotten a powercommander for the pipes which are not stock but that only adds like 5hp

again with bikes, any new bike has more then enough power to get you into trouble faster then you can blink so 20 hp wont make a difference unless your valentino, nice bike though!

 

LOL yea im not to knowledgeable on bikes even though i now really want to get one. The thing only weighs what like 350lbs? How much hp do you really need lol.

 

high horsepower + a little weight = fast

 

that thing is sick!! I want a cbr bad!!

 

Can someone explain to me the functionality of the second small exhaust?

 

some of the 1000cc inline 4 bikes have dual exhaust like the R1 and in this case the 1000rr. The MV Agusta has 4 exhausts, 1 for each cylinder. Probably because there is no need to have backpressure cause torque is not as important since bikes are very light.

 

Temp tag on a 1000 huh. Did you get the matching repsol gear as that a sweet design.

Second small exhaust to make it look like the Honda factory GP machine. Be carefull bro, watch out for the cagers.

 

O ok so is there an exhaust for every 2 cylinders? I just noticed that the underseat exhaust was aftermarket as well.
