I am pretty disappointed in the colors/graphics of the 09 cbr. Im really curious to see the new R1 and GSXR1000 this year.

Those are euro colors, we will get the normal plain colors.

09 yams are up, pretty much an 08 with new colors

looks like we get blue, black, white and orange.

The white would look bad ass without those ugly ass red seats.

The R1 is different. New Euro 3 pipes on it and some minor engine and cosmetic changes. Oh and a nice $800 price increase on the R1. I love the black R6 with the gold wheels.

Don't forget the new selectable drive modes for the R1 just like on the GSXR's except only having 2 modes, not 3.

R1 has big bang firing order, same ole YTCC YICC crap and got uglier...I hope I can find a close out GSXR1000. All the new liter bikes look like crap.

The new black and gold R6 is the pick o the yammies...The green and black CBR600 makes me think Monster Energy Drink and teh Blue White CBR looks like the old Konica Minolta GP paint scheme...

The R1 looks ok...not jumping out of my chair crazy about it but I will be interested to see some performance #'s.

Agreed. The new R1 and zx10 are both ugly to me. The cbr is growing on me but I would love an 07 or 08 gsxr1000.
