Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP 2017

Honda has achieved a real feat with the Fireblade. A good motorbike has become better without sacrificing the popular virtues. The bike shines with perfection in terms of chassis setup and overall package. The Fireblade SP is a worthy upgrade to an already fantastic motorbike. The titanium tank makes it clear how serious Honda was. The Öhlins electronic suspension is of high quality and inspires with a radically refreshing new approach. Suspension set-up no longer has to be a compromise.
