Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade 2014

Those who focus on good lap times will not find the CBR 1000 RR the best partner in the field. Those who simply want to ride nice laps around the ring or on the country road will still have fun with it. It rides heart-stoppingly, looks great and gives you a lot of feeling for the rear wheel. At the regulars' table, Honda fans can at least score points with Marquez's victories, but they won't be able to come up with the Fireblade's fabulous performance figures or lap records.
Yamaha R1 2012

All in all, the R1 is given the thankless role of the comfortable, easy-to-ride sports bike in the 2012 model year. From a pragmatic point of view, that's not necessarily a bad thing, but try explaining that to your mates at the pub table.
