Why it's like that??

Hi bikers, how's you doing all?
Might be its such a lame question but just wanna ask
Why Fireblade is named as Fireblade, what would be the reason behind this name??

 

According to Bennett’s website ……
The FireBlade name was actually a mistake – a mistranslation into English from the intended Japanese name of ‘Lightning’.

 

Glad they made a mistake.

 

Because Crotch Rocket was taken

 

Because it goes like a hot knife through butter

 

TBF if it had been called “Lightning” we’d be saying now how daft “Fireblade” would have been.

 

Because everyone had thrush in the 90's

What this question has to do with racing or sport? I really don't know.

 

Don’t worry about it. The OP isn’t really interested or knowledgeable about bikes, especially Fireblade, he’s just here to try to sell a certain company’s luggage.
