just one question how do you compare a 98 R1 to a 06 CBR?.....
Well initial thought is the r1 hit harder, The cbr feels so spirited and light, the r1 was a workout to ride, the cbr has a more linear powerband but pulls like a mofo up top but still has gobs of torque at 4000 rpm. And honda does have reliability on ther side. I will post more as I ride.
Well you asked me a question, quote the ? at the end of your post. So I answered it. If you wanted to be a smart a$$ you should of not asked me a QUESTION.i think you miss understood me, basically what i meant is I hope the 06 is a much better bike than the 98 R1 that just makes sense if not then Yamaha would have given up a long time ago my point is in order to compare fairly it should be compared to a 06 R1 Thats all not putting anyone done or anything just saying that isn't fair to compare the two as in the cbr is a better bike i really hope the 06 cbr is better than the 98 R1 if not then honda is doing something wrong and what do you mean honda has reliability on their side? Yamaha is just as reliable if not more.... lil confused on what thats supposed to mean plus yamaha warrenty is much better... and a yamaha msrp for msrp is cheaper.... I think they are a great looking bike however I am not a big fan of any full out rocket not my cup of tea not comfortable at all for me... but to each their own!

I guess it's not fair for the magazines to compare Honda to Kawi to Suzuki to Yamaha either. I mean after all, they are different manufacturers. I guess it wasn't fair for me to compare my FZ6 to my R1 either....just saying that isn't fair to compare the two...

the magazines compare current model years thats the only way to compare a bike.....

Yes, but they compare with different manufacturers.... and you said yourself....he should be comparing the 98 R1 to an 06 R1.
Sportrider magazine did a comparison with a 98r1 to the 04-06 r1 the 98 r1 was only a 10 of a second slower.
