2020 Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP | First Ride Review
I was lucky enough to be offered the brand new 2020 Honda CBR1000RR-R SP Fireblade for a couple of weeks to test on the road. Sadly, the weather immediately decided it didn't want to play along! But, that didn't stop me from taking this road-based racing thoroughbred for a spin on some very wet, muddy, and greasy UK roads. So join me for a little, rather restrained first ride!
Many thanks to Honda UK for making this video possible.

Old cbr1000rr is a very road biassed superbike it has a lot of torque in early RPMs but not as much power at the top. Also, the ergonomics on the older bike is more relaxed. Also, euro5 regulations kinda killing the street capability of this bike because it had nothing under 8k RPMs it needs a reflash badly to remove these restrictions.

@@AmritGrewal31 It's not bias take Aprilia or Ducati to a spin and you'll see for yourself. But some Japanese bikes do have character. Yamaha bikes got a lot of character r1 and mt09 is one of the most fun bikes to ride. and this cbr1000rr-r has character too but still, this bike has tons of issues it's not that fast for 217HP it getting walked on by 2020 r1 and zx10r and it's too tall geared for more technical slower tracks. Leave European bikes aside it's not a top Japanese bike by either pretty much on every track test and shoutout r1 beats it with much faster lap times.

Get tired of these b.s. reviews....guy always acts like he's surprised at a bikes power even though hes been riding 150 yrs and ridden everything, from a super race bike to grandmas wheel chair. It's like watching the news for God sake!
