Tough guys who want to pass for 1000cc riders at the regulars' table as conquerors of a beast should not go for the CBR. The Fireblade is not too much for a 600cc beginner. You can approach your personal limit amazingly safely. In fact, this is the Fireblade's greatest asset compared to the other 1000s on the market.

The motorbike convinces in every situation with its easy handling and practicality. On the other hand, it can also be ridden delightfully irrationally.
