'08 CBR1000RR Graphics

Just want to hear everyone's opinions about the graphics on the '08 1000RR. If you don't like the current wing graphic, what do you think Honda should do to improve the graphics? What kind of graphics would you like to see on this bike?

Just to clarify, the RED and BLACK models have the wing graphic, while the YELLOW, SILVER/BLACK, and SILVER/RED models basically have no graphics.

Re: '08 CBR1000RR Graphics

I just got my 08 yesterday in Winning Red. That or black were my only two choices. I prefer the red over the black, so IMHO red is fine and I wouldn't change a thing. I'm loving my Fireblade.

Re: '08 CBR1000RR Graphics

I love the bikes Graphics. My choice was all black, red and black or white and black. White and black won it hands down. I like the maroon and black too.

I think the graphics on the new blade are very tastefull. I love the badge on the tank!

Re: '08 CBR1000RR Graphics

I have the Red & Black and I think the wings helps it break up the amount of red with the frame being black and the air intakes under the lights being black it kinda matches on a bigger theme.

Love em

Another black/white owner here.

I like the graphics but don't pay them too much attention. Us lucky white bike owners probably pay more attention to the pearl white paint.

I like the retro aspect of the bike too. I think the tank badge is ace

Re: '08 CBR1000RR Graphics

I'm really happy with my winning red/black combo and extra happy it has the black engine cases.....all up I think honda did a pretty good job with this one.
Did like the white ones till I found out it was pearl white, but that's a personal thing.....just don't like pearl paint
