CBR 's are always good bikes all around.

Loved the excitement, I test rode a year ago and still remember the mind bending acceleration.

Pick up my Repsol blade sp next week brand new and cannot wait

I Bought one 10 weeks ago here in Thailand, have made various changes as the laws here are less strict etc and have had it hand painted .. my initial feeling having part exchanged my 2015 CB650 as i drove it from the show room was i had bitten off far more than i can chew . the power difference was unbeliebvable , the ride handling .. in fact everything about this bike was so very different to the 650 .. but only 2 weeks later and i have to agree this is an awesome machine so easy to ride .. very comfortable and this being Thailand the brakes were quickly put to the test and thankfully i couldn't believe how exceptional they are .. i have just one concern and that is the fact i can feel the heat from the engine coming from the frame and it can get quite uncomfortable .. i have tried to find info on the nominal engine operating temp but so far without success .. i am getting readouts at traffic lights of 108 but will drop to 107 so never goes beyond this and no warning light appear .. i have been told this is the norm .. however would appreciate if anyone else has any info they could share with me . it would be greatly appreciated . Very enthusiastic video but i hear where you are coming from .. 10 weeks since i purchased it the feeling has not been dampened one bit .. Thanks

Enjoyable review. Thankyou. I love the Fireblade, so civilised - so lunatic... all in one neat swiss watch type package. Fantastic machine and want one.

What a machine the sp version, great video 👍

The CBR1000RR's engine has a longer stroke and smaller bore compared to the zx-10r and R1, which means it'll have less horsepower but a broader torque range, which translates into user friendliness. Not the most powerful, but the best handling, most comfortable liter bike in my opinion. I love the looks of the 2016 model, especially the front. Wish it had all the electronic wizardry like traction control, but ABS is the most important, for me (much easier to recover from a rear wheel slip when over-throttling than a front wheel slip when over-braking).

This is why I call myself 'Slowrider' Paul, I deliberately buy slow bikes because I couldn't trust myself with a blade, I've always liked them though, my CB1100 doesn't encourage me to ride fast like a Blade would. I saw your vid showing the blade you bought, very nice, take care! Paul.

this made me smile

A very well balanced view, did you buy it ??

I want the 2014 model in the HRC livery so badly. When I get it, I need to make sure I take care of it, and also need to get it on gorgeous European roads.

All the honda fireblades are just great bikes to ride.More then enough power and very flickable.I have the 2008 cbr 1000 rr fireblade and would never get rid of it.

Gd review! This was one of the videos that I bumped into a while back and helped me choose the fireblade! :-)

I've got the 2006 blade great bikes for the road . I enjoyed your video m8.

Love how you checked your offside mirror at the road narrow part after giving it some. Very safe and good practice, but you left them for dead!

I love this bike

Great looking bike! :) i recently bought a yellow 2009 fireblade, absolutely love it! Rapid.

Great video. Wish test rides were allowed in my country..

at point 13:04 please tell me i'm not the only one who burst out laughing at the blurred out speedometer :P

great review. you're funny 😁 sound a bit like Sam Tarlly from GOT. keep it up ! love the speeding it up part 😆

Not sure if you're still about mate, you disappeared a bit lively.

I test rode one about year and half ago when i passed my test. then bought it 😂 nice review dude 👍

If you were a trucker you would under stand we drive miles. And that 2 miles an hour difference over a distance means missing you slot or not.

Awesome review 👍🏾💯🏍

Can you take a passenger on the SP model .

Nice video mate.. you have bigger kahunas than I would 1st time out on a fast sports bike.

Nice Video.Thanks for sharing.

Crashed my CBR600RR, the only 1000cc bike I'm considering is a Fireblade. I wonder what the difference in ride is between the normal one and this one?

I'd love to have an SP as a little quick trip bike just to say I had one of the maddest machines out there. Having had a CBR600, but now a CBR650 I wouldn't go back to just having a super sport as my only machine thats for sure, I'm only 32, was a little younger on the 600, it's pain at any age on longer rides. But as you expressed, it's a different animal.

I always felt like this colour would make thieves try to steal it more because it shows out more than the matte version.

Love my blade

Ahh I have the 650 so now every time I get on another bike a hit the horn around the corner...

So, how is it comparing with the Panigale ?!?

Was that lifting in second ?

I ride a Yamaha Giggle 125 scooter. I find it infuriating when I nod at other bikers and they ignore me.

Can't see the bike while you're riding

What height are you is it a tall bike?

How tall are you?

How tall are you

There is no Honda dealer in Hatfield Hertfordshire

Suppose a kangaroos jump short, then what

Not enough power

O re khanker chaly

good video until you slagged off a lorry driver

I love this bike
