- Опубліковано 27 лип 2024
- The SC28 (1992) Fireblade trail-blazed the way for how modern supersports should feel and behave, with the second generation SC33 model (1996-99) boasting more power and increased engine capacity - all in a package that weighed only 172kg (dry).
Visordown takes a ride down retro lane by putting a classic 1996 Honda CBR900RR Fireblade (SC33) through the rigours of 2019 life.

Honda cbr 900 rr 1996 review - Авто та транспорт
No lies detected. I might mess around and buy a second (lower mileage) one. The comments about balance are understated. This bike is so light beneath you. Head turner / convo starter comments are spot on. So many people appreciate this bike, and I understand why. I stumbled on upon it while looking for a race rep F3 after someone ran into me on my Ninja 250. I did some research and knew I had to get one. Nothing but smiles, and confidence. No mechanical issues after many tens of thousands of miles. And after 6k rpm - it's a different world. Don't pass it up if you get the chance to pull the trigger on one.
Bought a 2001 929 RR and love it to death. Gig the chance at a 96 Fireblade and had to have it as well. Lots of people ask why and I tell them it's the first real super bike, a real collector.
3 years old video but the bike age’s like fine wine. Have ridden couple of these back in early 2000 when I used to run a bike service and dyno shop. Bought a nice black and grey 1996 model last fall and it immediately brought me memories from 20 years ago. Thanks for sharing this video.
My first “proper” sport bike was a 1999 Honda 929. Great bike. Served me well and taught me a lot about riding.
are u sure it was a 99, or it was a 929? because the first 929 came out in 2000, and the 99 had 919 and still carburated.
Pedro Rezende the 919 is the 1999 model. I have one too.
what a wonderful respectful review. i am 56 and was a cycle mechanic as a young man and have had sport bikes my whole life. its impossible to convey the nostalgia for exactly what you are talking about. your comment 'older men who were once younger men' says it all. my 2016 MV Agusta F3 675 is remarkable to me but getting on a 1986 FZ750, my 2005 Triumph Daytona 650 or this 1996 fireblade feels like home. i hope you live to feel the nostalgia you seem aware of. cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video and nice bike. I bought mine new in 1993 and I still have it. There are very few bikes that are complete game changers but the Blade is one.😊
I had a 1998 fireblade with a D&D carbon exhaust and it was by far the best bike I've ever had. Started with a Ninja ZX6R of the same year but by the end of that summer I wanted something faster....omg was I pleased with the Fireblade.
Owned the exact bike. Same colour. Bought it new. Wonderful machine . Miss it !
Just bought this model, and it is just so fucking better than anything I’ve ridden. Not ever going to sell it cuz I’m in love with her 🥰🥰🥰
Had the Original 92 Blade... Brilliant bike.
I have a 98' 919 and when I tell you it's amazing... that's an understatement. Got it in the shop for some new fairings, brake lights, indicators... and a couple others minors fixes. Was about to get rid of it, but I just can't, man.
I've a passion for bikes from 2000-2006. Nice video.
I became the second owner of an ‘03 954RR
just last week. I’ve only had the bike a few days and people are trying to buy it off me on the street 😂
Got a few late eighties - mid nineties sport bikes and this Honda and first Yamaha R1 are my favourites when talking about riding. End can has been painted, 92-93 SC28 end can is the only one in black, and wont fit that model, I did try...
Awesome bike love all the crazy 90’s paint.
had this bike (red and black) - rode it from Boston to Florida - got stolen on the way back in Myrtle Beach. Great bike never had a mechanical issue
Best reviews man. Keep it up.
Coworker is selling one so im gonna buy it it is all black with no stickers and 30k miles but he only wants 1500 i used to ride a ninja 250 wish me luck lol
Did you get the bike?
@@starstencahl8985 no i bought a 1986 Honda vfr 700 interceptor. He sold it to a relative before i could buy it.
I have the same model but in the red/white/purple etc. They are a fantastic bike their amazing to ride and the build quality is amazing. I've had mine a few years now. It took me along time to find one this clean. I bought it off a bloke in his 60s who love it but couldn't ride it anymore and would find himself taking his VFR out instead.
I've had quite a few bikes come and go but the blades still here and i don't think I'd ever sell it if i had a choice.
If you looking at buying one of these, do it you won't regret it and its not like your gonna lose money. Just do your home work as there is a lot of thrashed shi$ters out there.
excellent review! thank you
That bike is a work of Art
It's a masterpiece 💯🏆
I owned one for about 6 years, was a 1992 and I can tell you I hit 185 to 190 mph with no mods. as far as I know other than a sweet D&D pipe. Bought it used 2005. Good video BTW.
185+ for a standard 893 blade. Speedo got to be out. I would believe 170-175 mph but only if...
Not a chance, pal. Nowhere even close but a still a beautiful bike.
Had a 1996 918 dynojetted and viper exhaust 165 mph would be it
Utter bollocks 😂
@@david_hurst complete and utter bollicks i had a 96 one dynojetted viper exhaust and high lift cams it was fast but 165 170 would be it flat to the mat
Hell yeah I love my 1997 cbr rr 900 fireblade
I got one too lol 33k miles. Original.
Owned one. Best balanced bike and a brilliant bike. Only clocked it to 240kmh.
My buddy had a bike like this. It was ported in jetted with 162 horsepower at 350 pounds wet. At 120 mph it had Ram air induction and goes from 0 to 60 like a does from 120 to 180. Nothing like doing a wheelie at 145 mph. Just about killed me but it was the best time I ever had... That bike was a monster...
J W I got a 1999 model as my first motorcycle. In my complete ignorance, I was telling my friend that it was a sensible choice because some people on a liter bike forum said it was their commuter. I said it was funny how these used to be terrifying superbikes before they were reduced to getting groceries, to which he incredulously replied, “...it still is.”
Yeah, these motorcycles are scary, and that story sounds amazing. I still think my motorcycle looks great next to modern machines.
Thanx mate, nice review. Just made a deposit for a 1997 CBR 900RR red/white/blue. Seems like a lot of fun after two 1991 750cc bikes! The torque should be be awesome in comparison ;)
I got same one lol. 33k miles and original. Just loving it. No need for more power.
Great review....... I have a 93 with 7001 miles... they are some really great bikes
Own a 97 Fireblade awesome bike
How tall are you and did you find if comfy being a older bike
I got a 97 fireblade i love it
I suspect it'll still do 160 with all of the original horses corralled, it's a Honda afterall. Great back then, still great now.
I've had my 96 blade up to 260kmh on several occasions. Mine is in very good condition. But it doesn't take long to get there I can tell you.
I miss this era of color schemes for bikes
Me too, and I miss the bare aluminum frames
@@professorvoluck9311agree, so boring with all the black frames.
How tall are you and how much do you weigh? I'm thinking about getting one, but I'm 6'2 240 I don't want to look like a bear on a trike at the circus! Lol
I'm 5'6, is this bike to tall for me, but I'm assuming it can be lowered? Am I correct?
I’m 5’4 and ride a ‘03 954 with no issues
Yeah they can be lowered using kits or getting the suspension set up by a specialist suspension company or look for a high quality lowering kit online.
Re-upload?
Has anyone else noticed that if this is a Euro bike why is the speedo in MPH? maybe someone can help me understand that... Oh.... Nice rig man.
Could have been a squaddie bike. Bought over here tax free but registered in Germany
This is England
Its a nice bike but the breaks fade badly. It need a much better fork and rear shock
I have two 1993 red white blue. Both for sale
Pirelli tyres on a blade tut tut , if its the original shock its shagged , owned over 70 bikes loved a few most I just shagged n moved on , but let me tell you something when you meet that one , the one that looks you in the eyes whilst tounginging ur balls that's the fireblade once ridden never forgotten forgotten
If you're quick you can see most people off with 90-100hp.
Hi
A review without doing your homework........What’s the point!!!!!
Just so u know the first SC28 was an 893cc
Rear suspension not set to factory that and the road surface is the only reason for bumpy ride. Umm my 5yo daughter knows more about Blades
