Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade 2020

Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade 2020

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.

Improved seating position

Rideability very good

Powerful engine

Throttle split gives the rider a lot of confidence

Chassis also suitable for the racetrack in automatic mode

The Ninja H2 represents a milestone in motorbike history. It is not only packed with electronic innovations, but also offers completely new technologies in terms of engine construction and mechanics. This high-tech research object of a Japanese technology company is actually for sale and can also be ridden. Basically, it rides like a normal motorbike, only with considerably more power. At first, the engine response is a challenge, but speed freaks will find a way to ride and enjoy this fascinating motorbike.

Outstanding build quality

fascinating engine with mechanical turbocharger

pull, acceleration and speed on a completely new level

narrow seat ensures safe standing - even for smaller riders

great stability

motorbike inspires a lot of confidence despite high performance

strong brakes

high-quality details

Response behaviour in the transition from pushing mode to acceleration phase not at the level of "normal" motorbikes

understeer in fast bends

from body height 185 cm it could be difficult to integrate the feet into the overall aerodynamic concept - test seat!
