Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP 2020

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.

Incredibly powerful powerplant

super-sporty geometry yet good ergonomics

state-of-the-art electronics package

super crisp feedback from all components

transparent and powerful braking point

electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension.

the engine's transmission and power delivery are primarily designed for the racetrack, not much happens up to around 6000 revs

no cruise control

True supersport looks for everyday use. Despite its aggressive and credible styling, the CBR500R's everyday package is a delight. Low fuel consumption and a comfortable riding position make it a feel-good companion that has been significantly upgraded for 2022. The chassis and brakes now match the CBR's aspirations, and with the right accessories it shows its all-round qualities. Only the shock absorber leaves room for improvement when the going gets sporty.

Full 48 hp in the A2 class

comfortable seating position

transparent feel for the front wheel

high-quality standard tyres

low seat height

good brakes.

Suspension strut bounces on bumpy roads
