In 2019, Honda announced the CBR1000RR-R FIREBLADE (the third “R” in its name stands for “race”) as the first full model change FIREBLADE in twelve years, and this bike features a stunning motorcycle design with a highly circuit-oriented feel and plenty of race technology: a high performance 218hp engine, and aerodynamic honed cowls, highlighted by triple interior fairing winglets in the side cowls.

Last year was the 30th anniversary of the first FIREBLADE bike and Honda announced the release of the special CBR1000RR-R FIREBLADE SP 30th anniversary.
