Reviews like this are what make sports bikes still the ultimate buzz in the motorcycle world. Absolute weapon ,hats off to Honda for keeping the class alive and updated. Neeves reviews are always #1 , always look forward to his opinions .
I can appreciate other bikes and have ridden many types but even when someone else rides passed and I'm walking, the excitement a sports bike gives for me is unrivalled. Still got my K5 1000 in full Yoshi engine tune, but this has got my interest 😲
Wow man we love your reviews...You provide such a valuable informations, so precise, pin point review....hopefully u keep doing more! Litetally u just say what people want to hear and it's not just me, i've talked to all or my friends Great job srsl!
I didn’t see Neevsy that excited for sometime and it shows how great the bike from his reaction, i think I wasn’t wrong about my choice for the next bike.
All of the changes made are going to make this Blade the one to beat in the coming years. The icing on the cake is the aesthetic design, just gorgeous.
Great work as always guys! Can't wait for the top dog shootout. And maybe the 600 shootout? Which would be more like a comparison since there's only two of them now lol
Great video Michael your smile enthusiasm said so much about the bike as well as the tech information. I like the new format with Joseph getting a speaking part 😊 great video 👍👍👍
Only the SP version available in the UK? There was a time when bikers could afford a Fireblade. What did Ducati say a few weeks ago. “If you want a Ferrari you have to pay Ferrari prices”!!! Great review Michael, your enthusiasm for this new Blade shone through and made me want it even more! But I guess on reflection many bikes when fully specced command similar prices to the Fireblade SP these days.
difference is if you buy a "ferrari" or a ducati, the real cost is hidden-its the long term ownership, and the maintenance costs far surpass the original costs of ownership the honda the price is up front, with no long term costs except oil changes. no maintenance. no breakdowns. no issues whatsoever.
Nice detailed review, thank you. Clearly some very extensive development with some cool new features like the split throttle bodies. Nice to finally see adjustable options for ABS settings added too. One thing not mentioned that has me curious, what's with Honda's unwavering reluctance to equip their top tier track focused bike with braided brake lines? Surely it's not a cost cutting measure. Given the price of the bike, the difference in cost to equip at factory is an insignificant percentage. Likewise the idea the bike is aimed at racing and most bikes will have the ABS removed etc. seems an unreasonable justification given all the other bits clearly aimed at the consumer level, such as revised ergos and electronic suspension.
Honda need to go too a V4! They’re running back of the pack in WSBK, and they’re not even on the grid in domestic championships outside BSB. MotoAmerica or ASBK. Soichiro Honda would be shamed of the current state of Honda racing.
Wish Honda would make a naked version. They don't have anything to compete with things like my ZH2SE, Street Fighter V4's and the like. My first bike was CBR 600 F2 so I have a soft spot for them.
@@SSS-mp8th damnnnn, that sucks man, maybe if enough attention is bought to the matter y'all can have it designated for NA aswell. Doesn't make sense why they wouldn't sell it there, since the US is probably one of the biggest, if not the biggest consumer of the premium ($10k+) motorcycle market. Heck, pretty much all the mvloggers/youtubers I watch are North American, there's just not as many people doing that in other regions of the world comparatively...
Great video,what is it about Hondas ,they just surprise,amazing handling,sizzling engines and thats in comparison to my KTM RC8 and Benelli TNT 1130.The VFR 1200,somewhat modified is the Q bike if ever there was one.
On the European bike specialness point, it is important to recognise the build quality and reliability of the Honda. They are different, not better, so choose your preferences. I have both so speak from experience, not bias. Clearly this Fireblade is more than we will ever need up to Superstock racing..
Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP or BMW S1000RR... What are you picking?
Both? :v
(Thanks for the awesome vod as always MCN/Neeves)
Sp
Fireblade!
S1000RR
CBR!!!
What do you mean skip to 12:05 to see specs?!? We’re all here for Neevesy what we he says is gospel!!
F*** me, the way Bridewell went past you and stormed off in to the distance...... that was nuts!
Had a giggle you nearly floored the tyre warmer man! Great review as ever.
This whole video was such a huge step up, brilliant review, editing and have been watching for years, great work neevsy and the team at mcn.
Much appreciated!
13:35 Neeves almost KO-d that poor guy putting tyre warmers on 🤣🤣 great review as Always by MCN, bike is epic 🤩
Would have made a great blooper reel
noticed that too lol
I wish Honda success in WSBK
They need a V4! The competition is just better!
I don't
Kawasaki won the first race in australia
I don't think so..
They are way behind other competitors..
@@KyleMicenai think same ....but Ducati V4 motor is much strong in WSBK
Great review yet again. No waffling just straight to the point info. Some bike! very temping
Honestly one of admin's favorite tracks 🔥Listen to that thing scream down the straight

We're so lucky to have Neevesy... that's all I wanted to say.
I didn’t see Neevsy that excited for sometime and it shows how great the bike from his reaction, i think I wasn’t wrong about my choice for the next bike.
I’m in love with the SP beautiful machine
Looks and sounds a great bike to own now.Thanks.
POV was mind blowing.
Best review of the 2024 Fireblade as usual. Thank you Mike.
Thanks Neevsy. Looking forward to it.
😀
You hung on well with the big guys on the track. The satisfaction with the bike shines through.
Patronising
Great video! One of the best
Glad you enjoyed it!

Looks and sounds fantastic. Great to see Honda back in there. 👍
It sure is!
Had the 2009 model. Love a go on this one! Great review.
Excellent vid neevesy, at last a honda that could be an mcn superbike group test champ.
Neeves should start doing audiobooks and just talk about specs of different bikes 😍
Cant wait for the video against the bmw and the ducati^^
Great review, thanks
Thanks for watching!

Thanks, I have lived long enough for honda not to be a joke.
as a sad yamaha fan, I'm happy for you :(
Honda garbage. How many wins are even placing in the top three in wsbk
@@gabri12fulyou probably ride a chinese moped

A happy owner the Honda 2020 sp
a magic bike . Expensiv but worth every
buck.
Best ever mcn review, so excited for the new blade! RIP to the R1 ( it's a crime)
Welcome back Fireblade !!!
Wow! I really want one of these. 😊
best bike in the game
A good day was had here...
Yh buddy
Great Review!
Thanks to mcn and neevsey, masters of their craft.
Thanks for that great test ride
Glad you enjoyed it
Neevesy always a legend, always a great summary......you were keeping McPint honest, then Tommy boy flew by and rapidly closed in on John 😮
Is America getting this bike and the new 600rr?
Nice detailed review, thank you. Clearly some very extensive development with some cool new features like the split throttle bodies. Nice to finally see adjustable options for ABS settings added too.

Surely it's not a cost cutting measure. Given the price of the bike, the difference in cost to equip at factory is an insignificant percentage. Likewise the idea the bike is aimed at racing and most bikes will have the ABS removed etc. seems an unreasonable justification given all the other bits clearly aimed at the consumer level, such as revised ergos and electronic suspension.
finally they make CBR have shorter gearing ratio
Damn the gearing looks good so far similar to my old 2001 Daytona when revved out.
great stuff
For the quality of reporting this channel provides, I'm surprised you only have 339k subscribers. Just subscrbed. THANK YOU !!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great review!
Thanks!
💙 the Fireblade and Honda!
im excited to see a comparison between the fireblades ,ape and duca.
What a very pretty bike looks Fab. Let's hope it can win at super bike 👍
Absolutely gorgeous!! Wish we saw these in MotoAmerica 😕
All I want now is one of these new 'Blades. Such an incredible motorcycle. Great review, too 👍
can i have say to admin please show more the bikes when Michael speaks.thank you
Honda need to go too a V4! They’re running back of the pack in WSBK, and they’re not even on the grid in domestic championships outside BSB. MotoAmerica or ASBK. Soichiro Honda would be shamed of the current state of Honda racing.
Man they made a ton of changes.. i hope its more competitive in wsbk
Someone from the media department has been watching the Schaff videos as the track footage has up a level
we need a V4
Who will buy it?
People who buy Ducati and also buy every v4 bikes made.
Good morning MCN I was wondering if its possible if you could do another shoot out for 2024 of the liter bikes and supersports
FIREBLADE 👑👑👑

Looks like ya wish has been answered lol. Latest 44teeth vid
@ if you mean the Hornet, it’s not sold in the U.S. good deal for the rest of the world though. Best we have is still the 150hp CB1000R

Your right on sir your master bike rider like me in CA tulary county kings county
15:33 Bike screaming around the track
Subtitles: "[Music]"
Ooh the intake noise 💦
Any idea when the 2024 model will hit the US market?
Great video,what is it about Hondas ,they just surprise,amazing handling,sizzling engines and thats in comparison to my KTM RC8 and Benelli TNT 1130.The VFR 1200,somewhat modified is the Q bike if ever there was one.
What black camo alpinestar jacket is that? Looks cool
This or a GSA? (Great video - only Neevesy can make such a stats-fest interesting!)
I know 200BHP on the road now is much to much but but what would it be like to have as your happy day bike?
please review r1m 2024
What about the new E-Clutch thingy?
Neeves still can ride even reading googles!
When is the cbr600rr video scheduled?
Early next week
@@motorcyclenewsdotcom cant wait for it. hope you have included a sound check😍
@@motorcyclenewsdotcom cant wait for it. i hope you made a quick sound check😍
So much want!
Hi Mike lovejoy here the face book warrior 😂 hope you're well , what are your views on the honda compared to the 2023 bmw m1000rr competition
My Kawasaki has that same kind of throttle body.....And it's a hell lot of a difference between how you open then and how it sound and goes....
I was thinking "Crikey, that looks quick", and then Tommy Bridewell flew past...
The design looks like it would have been revolutionary in 2003!
What was it like chasing Tommy Bridwell and John McGuinness?
2:14 what's with the weird exhaust
Amazing.
Thank you! Cheers!
CBR definitely

Which did you find more comfortable for your size the 600 or the 1000?
What’s the best of these 1000s as a track bike?
