Well, bought ANOTHER Honda....

Yes I have been a recluse for some time now since I sold the Fit. I miss it in all honesty but the 06 IS250 black on black is just dead sexy. Well, in my depression of Santa not being too good to me, just because the wife and I have been working a lot and all...redoing the house etc...I went to the Honda dealership the day after Christmas. I left with a 2008 CBR600RR "Graffiti".

The Graffiti color is supposedly "a rare" color. Who knows but it is hot. I haven't ridden in years so I have to take my motorcycle course this week and get my endorsement. I will post pictures tomorrow hopefully of the bike but I picked up the bike, a Joe Rocket jacket, a flat black Shoei helmet, and some Joe Rocket gloves. The boots I ride with are Dr. Marten's although I am upgrading those to Alpinestars.

Just 4 days after having the bike, I already got hit by the bug....I purchased a new smoke double windscreen for it, Yoshimura carbon fiber slip on, shogun frame sliders, and flush mount LED turn signals. Go figure. I got from modding one Honda to another. Good stuff.

Just figured I would check in and say hi.

Lucky you man, im so jeolous of your set up! That Graffiti color is fricken hot! And yes it is rather rare. Ive been riding dirt for a good part of my life and have lately been kinda eye balling some sport bikes, i think its best for me to hold on the sport bike idea. A 16 year old on a CBR600RR is a ticket machine, and/or worse. So yeah ill just stick to modding my Fit for a while lol. Pics i want!

when i crashed my fit, i didnt come on the forum the whole time it was in the body shop because it just made me depressed. so i know where your comming from. also good to see another two wheel rider on the forums. ive wanted to get a double R for a while now and ive been strongly considering it now that i have a black fit to match it up. how much did you pay and wtf is the graffiti color?

To both posts...I will have pics tomorrow. I am off tomorrow so it is car wash day to wash the Lex and the bike. The graffiti color is sick nasty in my opinion. Some people don't like it but it is a matte black with black "graffiti" type decals on it...from crossed pistons, to a skull, an "CBR600RR" in a tag style design on the underfairing. It is all blacked out. I like it better than the other colors that are commonplace.

I paid $9K for it which I was stoked about. They tried to get me on 07's that were modded with warranties but I declined once I saw the graffiti color.

By the way, my mom now has the Fit and is in LOVE! I put it mostly stock for her except the AVIC-D3, Mugen visors and door sill plates and the JDM badges. She says everyone in good ol Cocoa, Florida looks at the car.
