I still remember the first time I saw a Honda CBR900RR Fireblade.
Red, white and blue. Short wheelbase. Holes drilled through the fairing. It looked absolutely mental — and completely unattainable.
That bike rewrote the superbike rulebook. Lightweight. Raw. No electronics. Just you and the throttle.
Fast forward to today and we have the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade.
Winglets. Rider modes. Traction control. Data logging. Brutal acceleration. Capability that borders on ridiculous.
Objectively? The new bike wins in every measurable way.
But here’s the question the video explores:
Is it actually more fun?
This isn’t a spec sheet comparison.It’s about feel.Connection.And what really matters when you ride.
If you love Fireblades — old or new — you’ll enjoy this one.
