Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP 2020

The fans demanded it and Honda delivered: The new CBR1000RR Fireblade SP is the sportiest Blade ever. For the first time, it now has a clear focus on the race track. Many of its strengths, such as the wonderfully stable and direct handling or the braking performance, can of course also be exploited on the country road. But especially in the engine chapter, Honda took a clear path: no compromises, power and lap time come first. This is reflected above all in the fact that below 6000 revs, the power output is rather meagre, which in turn is not quite optimal on the country road. But if that doesn't bother you, you'll be happy with the new Fireblade. Honda took no risks and simply brought the best partners on board for the SP: Akrapovic, Öhlins and Brembo were the congenial partners of the Honda crew. Of course, all these components also have a corresponding price tag.

For the fact that Honda has actually only announced an update, hardly a stone has been left unturned on the new Fire Blade. Some of the new features are of course due to the new EURO standard, but many of them are really aimed at improving drivability. I am very pleased that, especially in times like these, when more and more manufacturers are withdrawing from the high-performance and expensive superbike segment, Honda is once again devoting its full development power to improving what is already good and thus demonstrating what is technically feasible. Because even if these bikes are no longer affordable for many of us, they still demonstrate the know-how or the technical possibilities. And over time, these will also find their way into the 0-8-15 bikes from which the majority of motorcyclists will then also benefit.
