I think all the bashing on new sportbikes is something old, i usually think it's the haterade kicking in, but that's the first time i have to agree with all of you. WHAT AN ABORTION!

Only way i'd get one would be to turn it into a streetfighter.
 
Now thats Something to Look into!
Thats a Meen Looking Bike Much Sleeker than the earlier model!
It looked more like an F4i than anything! IMO...

Just to compare the 08 looks way better if its a Real Pic(Black one)
 
Yeah, it's real

It's a real, living, breathing motorcycle produced by Honda for 2008, I guarantee it. Just because some other website says that no pictures were officially released doesn't mean we haven't got it. You're right, these weren't officially released. We used our world wide nextwork of contacts to get them, first. That's what MCN does, hourly, daily and weekly. We have the biggest team of motorcycle journalists of any publication in the world, and we work around the clock to bring you every REAL new bike first. If I haven't made it clear already, that 2008 FireBlade is a real picture, 100 per cent, definitely. Exactly as Honda will be selling them next year. Can I make it any clearer? Do you think we computer generated the rider on the screen too? We're good, but we can't mac a rider on a bike shown in a video! Plus, if you believe me now, the Blade is just for starters, keep checking back for more REAL new 2008 bikes later. Thanks for all the comments so far, but please don't tell lies about us! Regards, Marc Potter, Editor, MCN.
 
I think 07 1000RR owners resale value just went up. I understand it's supposed to be all about performance, and what wins races, but that bike is hideous.:yuk:
