Honda Fireblade is one of the sportsbikes which have been constantly tweaked and whose displacement went in so many directions that some are a bit confused. However, this happened because the bike was an awesome baseline for HRC's superbike racing programs, and it was only natural that the machine evolved constantly.

With 154 horsepower, this machine is a true blast. It will smoke almost any other liter-class bikes, or at least run shoulder to shoulder, at worst. 2001 brings numerous engine upgrades and revisions, a lower weight and better handling. There are hardly few parts left untouched, including your heart.
