I've said it befoer and i'll say it again,Thats what i like most about it. Just about every half dozen years or so you start to see major changes in sport bikes. They've gone from fully faired, to partially faired with more angles and open parts. From large front ends w/ single head lights to dual lights (minus zukes, of course, but their front end is nothing like it used to be either). Banana seats to tiered seats. side exaust to undertails and gp styles. regular forks to inverted style. Carbed to FI. etc etc etc.
I'm really digging the more compact look of the front and back end on the cbr (it looks like they've decreased the overall lenth of the bodywork at least six inches on both ends) , seems to be the next direction bikes are going to start taking.
just look at the differences
With a lower center of gravity and the ergo's of the front end the 2008 just looks like it'd eat the 07 alive.
