Cant decide between these 2 color schemes. I'm about to start rebuilding this bike, need direction.

I know this isnt a big thing but I wonder if you can get a newer fork set up for that bike from a 600rr or something. Everything on that bike is nice but the older damn front end. If you dont need the adjustments than its not really that big of a deal I guess.

Keep the factory stuff and rebuild it when necessary.

I would go repsol but order it from Auctmart on ebay. Better reviews than others.

Is there a difference between a repsol bike and a bike with repsol fairings on it? Like if I took an integra LS and put a bunch of type r parts in it and called it a type r, anything like that?

A real Repsol is a CBR1000RR with "race" mods. Basically, it's a from-the-factory race bike that is 100% street legal.

I'm a fan of the white & red minus the gay crome/polished wheels

repsol is just a race team. There's nothing significant about repsol other than the fact that they sponsor a race team. Repsol is just an oil company.

The bikes they run are much different from any bike you will see on the street with repsol fairings on it.

perhaps you can spot the differences....

I say red and white and paint the wheels white. it would give white the secondary color rather than it being the 3rd over black.

actually the repsols are different, including suspension setup and frame. the frame is slightly different and the bike is lighter but the average peron would never be able to tell the difference.

I cant find anywhere on the webz where it says there is any performance changes with the repsol....please find somewhere where it has the differences listed.
