I saw the video on YouTube, they are also doing a test on the road, which i think the SP may come close on that one. I guess you pay for reliability with Honda, nothing an MCN test can accomplish in a few days of testing.
Mcn are a bunch of choppers.. I've had 3 s1000rrs and loved them but loved the blade more. I bought an sp because I love fireblades and they are as good as it gets i think. I bought one because they are special, rare, lucrative, beautiful etc Couldn't give a shite what neeves thinks the bell end.. Yeah I saw it greame lol. The guy boils my piss. Mcn never give an honest opinion. There's always some bull shit behind what they say. Usually cooperate funding and sponsorship. Don't get me wrong the hp4 is a cracking bike but not my preferred choice
Yep sure have & love it, only done about 15 miles though, I find it really smooth & very sharp just missing a quick shifter which I think will be next on the list over an exhaust!!
The Full SP? | Road Tests | Motorcyclenews.com - YouTube There's the review again. Blade was 3 seconds a lap slower than the hp4 over Laps 1.45 ish. Makes me wonder how much time that would save the sp if it had a quickshifter on... Must be worth a couple of seconds do you think? Neil Hodson said the sp felt heavy and lacking in power
Was disappointed seeing it come last, but I bet it is better on the road.Honda need a kick up the backside, buy a HP4 and get a blade in development to beat it.All these subtle mods are not good enough.
No I don't I think reliability will let the BMW down not the rider and honda will dominate tt once again as it has since Suzuki with jefferies in 2003 honda has been up there the last 11 years .
Well heres my Replacement for the Repsol, and to be honest I really like the colour combo...more than I though I would. So Im a happy happy man, much sweeter power curve than my standard 2011 model too (surprisingly so!)
looks stunning the sp ..could you tell me what recommended pressures are on them Pirelli sp tyres does it say on your swinging arm ? im thinking of trying a set in summer
Hi, it's a PipeWerx (Round Carbon Edge)..... looks not to bad and sounds pretty good.... worth the £250 but my heel does hit of the can when I'm on my toes.... will have to find a solution to that ;-)
