| New Guy From Alaska I registered but I planto lurk until I get my new '06 CBR-1000 in March. I put a deposit on an all black one two weeks ago. Not much reason to get it any earlier since I live in Alaska and that's about as early as the snow disappears from the streets, if we're really lucky. I have a Ducati Monster S2R and a Suzuki DL1000 (V-Strom) but I'm trading in the V-Strom on the CBR-1000. I found I was riding the Ducati all the time and seldom riding the Suzuki. Then it occurred to me that what I really wanted was a full bore sportsbike. I've been riding for many moons... back to a Honda SuperHawk in the 70's. I've had a Virago 750 for commuting in Seattle for a while and one of the original GS-1100's way back when! Look forward to the discussions about what I think is a remarkable sportsbike... I looked at the GSX-R1000 but I decided on the CBR-1000 because of the design, how it looks, and Honda's reputation for quality and reliability. | |

| Re: New Guy From Alaska Well, ahhh, it's not gone in March very often... but one in a while... if we're really lucky, and the planets are aligned just right... OK, I exaggerated! We usually have snow in March but sometimes it's gone by April!  |
