Excuse the ignorance but what is different from a 1000rr repsol and a normal 1000rr. A dealer near me has a 2005 for sale with 7500 miles, hes asking just over $8000. I would be trading in a 2007 919, any help would be appreciated.

dealers are always high.., neg with him dude! show him pricing for other similar bikes, and then talk him down. if he refuses to budge, walk out, come back in another day or two and try again. if he refuses to budge much, clearly he's not someone you want to deal with. dealers always have huge markups on their prices for used bikes. they either get them from auctions or trade-ins, thats how they make their money.
I just searched repsolforum.com and fireblades.org. They both have a few threads about the LACK of differences. The only difference is the paint scheme.
2005 Honda CBR1000RR Repsol Edition
March 3, 2010
4-Cylinders, 4-Stroke, 998cc
Suggested Retail Value $7195
The Kelley Blue Book Suggested Retail Value is representative of dealers' asking prices and is the starting point for negotiation between a consumer and a dealer. This Suggested Retail Value assumes that the unit has been fully reconditioned and is in excellent condition. Mileage/condition and additional equipment may have a substantial impact on the value shown above. This value also takes into account the dealers' profit, costs for advertising, sales commissions and other costs of doing business. The final sale price will likely be less depending on the unit's actual condition, popularity, type of warranty offered and local market conditions.

Thanks for the input everyone, I haven't even tried negotiation with him yet but will definitely see how far I can get him down.
As far as getting rid of the 9'er.....love the bike, but I am constantly spending money on it trying to make it what I want....This isn't possible, I want something more like a 1000rr, so this year I'm finally going to make the move.
The other two bikes I am considering are the rc 51 and the aprillia rsv 1000, any thoughts on either of those?

Just that there is nothing like a big twin. I had a Superhawk 996 and just loved it. Of course it was a much more laid back bike than the 51, but wow, what a motor.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I decided on an 04 aprilia rsv. I put a deposit down on a very clean one earlier today that only has 1100 miles on it.
Thanks for the help everyone!
