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.

The fact that the Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory is new can be seen in the displacement - the increase to 1077 cubic metres means that a massive 217 hp and 122 Newton metres of torque are now available. This makes the RSV4 one of the strongest on the racetrack, but also a superior country road fighter. In all other respects, such as chassis, suspension and geometry, the Factory version with Öhlins suspension elements embodies the racing idea in a really serious way. Even the cool winglets on the side are no joke, but derived directly from the RS-GP MotoGP bike. The rest of the design is old, but certainly not boring.
