I must admit it looks very nice with that Akra exhaust on it and it will undoubtedly be very capable and reliable .

2016 seemed to be the year of the zx10r on here. Perhaps 2017 can be the Fireblade year?

Re: Motorcycle Live 2016 - Honda Fireblade
Nope, seen it today and it didn't do it for me. Don't like it at all, miss matched fairing bits bolted on and plastic crap filling holes in the frame that the fairing used to cover up on the old model. It may turn out to be a great bike, but it looks pants in my eyes

Re: Motorcycle Live 2016 - Honda Fireblade
I like the marketing speel about the Blade but it certainly doesn't excite me in the looks department - neither does Candice...

We can't all like the same things. The black blade in the flesh caught my eye and I like it. I will certainly be taking one out for a test ride.
As for Candice, she's very good company, relaxed and down to earth. Her date rape tale shows she's got a very good sense of humour.

Two bikes of the show for me were the Super Leggera and that Super charged BMW Bobber. Christ, I'm starting to like old custom bikes!

Re: Motorcycle Live 2016 - Honda Fireblade
There were a lot of the custom styled bobbers, café racers and retro bikes around. I noticed a lot of stands had something along those lines on there, even of they weren't selling bikes.
I did like the Triumph ice tiger.
