Honda has given Fireblade fans a reason to smile. With its classy Öhlins suspension, Brembo monobloc brakes, blueprinted engine and drop-dead gorgeous HRC paintjob, the SP is the most desirable Blade in its 21-year history. With its improved handling, braking performance and grip, the SP is destined to be a faster-lapping, easier-to-handle track day bike than any previous model. And all the sexy bits make it a far better road bike, too, thanks to its smoother engine, plusher suspension, stronger brakes and taller double-bubble screen.

Some of the changes to the 2014 Blade models are so minor you would be hard pushed to notice them back-to-back, but the SP gives you so much more confidence and feel through the rear tyre when you are at full lean. When you are flying along, wide-eyed and pumped full of adrenalin, you really notice the things that make the SP special: the new suspension, brakes, tyres and a bigger screen to hide behind down the straights. The 2013 Blade was always a nicely balanced, easy-to-ride superbike – with the SP there is all this and more.

The standard old Blade's engine is a little gruff, so at low speeds you really notice the beautiful smoothness of the SP's blueprinted motor. Then there's the engine's easy grunt, flexibility, the typically glassy-smooth Honda throttle response and the way the Blade SP rolls obediently into corners with the lightest touch on the wider, lower, bars. Did I miss the lack of rider aids? Unless you have the talent of a top racer you are never going to get the Blade to misbehave and you never miss not having electronic aids, although a quickshifter would be nice…

The Blade is extremely well built with an almost faultless reliability record.

4 out of 5 (4/5)

The Blade SP is more expensive than the S1000RR and RSV4 R, but on a par with the MV F4R and cheaper than a basic Panigale.

Lacking and electronic aids such as traction control or fuel modes, but it does have Öhlins suspension.

Talk about a slow burner. As the miles slip by, this Blade SP inexorably grows bigger in my life – to the point where my attitude towards it has progressed from one of indifference and Guy Martin and John McGuinness-fuelled suspicion to one of desire. But, as you may have heard, there is a prob

Oh yes. Light, fast, good looking, brakes are great, engine pulls all the way from 1st gear, handles like a 600.

Controls are all great, you just need 2 weeks to read the manual. First thing to change is the exhaust.

Buying experience: Dealer, Victor Devine, Glasgow.

Had the KTM 690 Duke, we won't talk about that! Then the Daytona 675. But the Blade is a different level. You have to get one!

Quick shifter is a must Slide control really does work

Buying experience: Sutton Motorcycles at Bromsgrove were fantastic. Steve Woods is helpful and not the usual pressure sales type. Would and will be back there. Thanks Steve, what a bloke. What a bike...

Incredible sports bike. From the engine to the build quality, Honda have nailed this new Fireblade. As a road bike it's comfortable, plenty fast enough and has a great interface.

I still need to set the suspension up properly

Lovely smooth power delivery and a raspy engine note, sounds great under load.

5 out of 5 CBR1000RR SP review

27 May 2014 by stealthbiker

Excellent Bike for the money. Very smooth riding bike, and handles much better than the standard CBR. Leans nicely in the turns, and makes me look like a better rider than I am. I was somewhat disappointed in the suspension and brakes - better than stock, but I was hoping for a full track suspension. The Ohlins is a reworked road and track version and is not height adjustable. I like the bike, and it is worth every penny. The extra cost is well worth it. I am getting it track ready. HRC ECU, change out air filter and exhaust, Power Commander, quick shift, dyno tune. Swap shifter. Swap handles for a better look. swap out stock Ohlins with track Ohlins, swap brakes. Change Chain and sprockets. My builder (Jett Tuning) states the bike will produce 175 at the rear wheels when running race fuel, 170 on premium gas, with an upper rpm limit of 14,500.

5 out of 5 Best Blade Ever

17 April 2014 by RoyM57

Early days to comment on reliability but Quality is usual Honda high standard and I expect reliability will be same. Gorgeous looking and fantastic ride and with limited numbers should hold value well.
