I'm very pleased with this newly acquired 15-year-old (but mint condition) 900. After being off the mount for about a decade, I decided to ride again. I'm no wheelie king or knee dragger but I enjoy a fun ride. Having rode for nearly a decade on heavier Ninja liter bikes (back in the day GPz 550, KZ1000, & Ninja 600/900/1000r), it's remarkable to ride (close to) a liter bike again with the weight and flickability of a 600cc one. When returning to riding I had an X Highway Patrol BMW R1150RT for a short while. It was very nice to ride but a different class. It was a Sport tourer with a boxer engine, shaft drive, anti lock brakes, and a big cushy seat. But it didn't have the "wow" factor and was over 200 lbs. heavier than the CBR. I have to admit, the comfort level isn't there of course, and I'm not a kid anymore (47 this month). But I still can stand a good 100 miles in a day of riding until my backside feels like it did when I was 10 years old and got a good spanking with a wooden paddle for testing the boundaries of my undisciplined youth. For the money (only $2,600) it was well worth every penny.

I bought my 93 CBR900RR as my first street bike (been riding dirt bike since I was 8) I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Very reliable and light weight for its age. One down fall, I am 19, 5'11" tall and about 160 lbs, that being said the bike is very uncomfortable until you get used to it. Tank could be narrower. Other than that, mine is 100% stock and still has power to keep up with my buddies 02 954RR and smoke my other buddies 06 GSXR600. Are you a wheelie guy? If so, this bike has plenty of wheelie power! Good bike to throw around the corners once you're used to it.

What can I say about this beast except that is just that a "beastI've had my Blade for a little over two years now. I'm only 22 but I've had 5 bikes now, a 600 Katana, a 600 and a 750 GSXR, and a Ninja 7r, all of which were great bikes with the exception of the Katana. The Blade was always my mythical creature and after I got it I loved it. I primarily only stunt ride and I have to say it's the best damn stunt bike around. The P.O.B (point of balance) is so easy to find and keep there with a little help from the back brake. My only complaint is that the bike is not all that great if your a small guy, I'm only 5'7 and 150lbs so if you take corners you really have to lay over on the bike. Other than that it's great. I would recommend this bike to anyone.

If you plan on cranking the throttle fully open in either 1st or 2nd, be prepared to experience a VERY light front end. This bike has crazy power, not for a novice rider. This is my 3rd Honda.

If you plan on cranking the throttle fully open in either 1st or 2nd, be prepared to experience a VERY light front end. This bike has crazy power, not for a novice rider. This is my 3rd Honda. I traded in a beautiful '90 CBR1000f to get this bike. I have to say that this bike was never intended to be putted down the freeway for hours at a time. It's designed as a canyon-carving, race-winning superbike. If you want a ride a comfortable "barcalounger" type bike, look elsewhere. This bike is at its best when you're riding on the edge, sliding back and forth in the seat and doing roll-on 2nd gear wheelies!

Everything pointed to the Kawasaki ZX9. I am 6'2" 220lbs. I went with the RR due to Honda's reliablity and great looks. Have not been disapointed. The bike is very comfortable for the weekend trips and great around town. Handles like a dream and there is more power than you need. If I wanted to pay more for insurance I would look at the 954.... It is by far the best bike I have owned.

It has been modified slightly with different valving up front and aftermarket shock in the rear and Hindle full exhaust, other than that its stock. It delivers power at a turn and will pull fantastic power wheelies (just don't mention that to the insurance people).
