Southern Powersports in Chattanooga, TN has a bunch of left over 2008 CBR1000rr s that they're selling stoooopid cheap. You can't even find used ones this cheap. If you have any interest in this bike don't pass this deal up. Honda has a $2500 rebate on this bike but I don't know how long it'll last. I bought a Red/Silver one Friday and I took my buddy that just got in from Iraq to get one yesterday.

The 2008-2010 are pretty much identical so you're not buying "old" technology and this bike has won best sportbike of the year the last two years running even after all the other manufacturers completely revamped their litre bikes to try to beat it. I'm not a fan boy for Honda either as this is my first Honda streetbike. I own and race a Suzuki GSXR750, just traded my SV1000, own 5 Yamahas, a Honda dirt bike and a Batavus moped pit bike. Anyway...Here's the info.
