- Honda wanted the 2020 Fireblade SP to be the most track-focused 'Blade ever. And it is. Fagan reports from the world launch in Qatar and samples the Big H's latest HRC-spec workings....

the mixture of solid facts knowledge and humour is why I come here, especially hearing someone that can actually ride talk about a bike instead of just some journalist/hobbyist
I'm a simple man, I love watching stuff I can't afford. 🙃
This comment is gold.
Well there are much cheaper bikes with pretty much the same performance.
Just Lean you need to ride one. I had a test drive today. Nothing I’ve ridden has this insane power band. It’s immense. It’s a MotoGP bike for the track you can ride on the road.
I'm about to get a second job. Well I guess it would technically be a third
@@theonlyredspecial dang! That's crazy.
"2020 is looking really, really good"
If they only knew what was coming. :-\
My 2021 wont be in till Sep. Hopefully when this shut down is over .
just thinking about that statement right now 🤣
Yup, scrolled down to type the same thing. I blame 44 teeth for jinxing us all.
F1hotrod why what happened?
There isn't a single competitor that can compare with 44 teeth you always smash the competition out the water with your content, another amazing review.
I like how descretly they have put those winglets, intigrated into the design of the bike!
Al, “I can actually fist the intake” came out of nowhere and completely ruined me 🤣 BRILLIANT!!
did i just witness the best intro for a review ever?
Classic Jim Maccad all I saw was empirical privilege.
Almost the best, he didn't present himself as the UK's premiere action movie star.
You did. I watched a few times just to be sure.
I wonder how mental it would be with 1 tooth less on the front and 4 more on the back? Ooooo!
@@Tefloncoated Once the ECU can be flashed, I have a -1 +1 sprocket change I'd like to do. Top speed would theoretically be ~204mph instead of the likely-impossible 224mph it's geared for now. Gearing it even shorter than that would be even more fun and useful, but I don't want to lose the +200mph possibility...
“.. the fireblade is back” cue music.
@44teeth, You guys are hilarious!
I’ve been watching for years now and kudos to you. You’ve built a motorcycle journalistic brand with video presence worthy of those 'other' ones built on the backs of magazines that have been around for decades. Keep it coming.
You two have a great formula, perfect detailed review. Only channel worth the wait for.
This motorcycle must be really good by the look of seriousness when Jason explains it.
Come on lads no matter how good or bad the New Blade is there is only one launch in 2020 . BBB coming soon with special guest star Mr James Holland.
@@IanHimself28 BBB
I should say that you boys did a mighty fine review though. Your record is telling it like it is, no bull and thats what we like.
Been watching 44 since the start. Really polished, well put together product you guys are creating.
Excellent content guys.
Guys... well done on the opening sequence! Loving the added production value!
That FIREBLADE is The KING of all bikes!!!!!!
Enjoyed very good shots and info. I bought the first blade so looking forward to the group test.
easily the best in-depth review of the new rrrrrrrr fireblade out there. half an hour and I dont even get bored. really informative.
damn this new blade is handsome af!
Paid my deposit... now taking up yoga to avoid the leg cramps
Do squats too , that seat ain't gonna be soft
@@nix294 or silicon implants hahah
dukerider I
@@dimos5422 bad idea. You can get cancer from it ☠
If you really did, congratulations! I hope you have a blast!
Awesome vid guys. Thank you.
Can't wait for the full SDR video!!!
Is “feels like a 600” the “tastes like chicken” of the motorcycle world?
pretty much
are you new to motorcycling?
Considering it makes peak hp 500rpms LATER than my last 600, it probably does feel like one lol.
@@Jakalwarrior haha yeah but its probably +30tq on a 600 across the entire rev range :D
Yes because 600s are light, agile and pleasing
You boys are legends been watching your vids since the start 👌
Great review and I was loving the editing too. Nice job!
Super stuff there guys 👍 'Especially loved seeing Nige attempting to prevent Fast Feddie from clearing off into the distance. Bravo!
"im actually fisting the intake" hahahah that's next level journalism xD
lol i was thinking the same thing
Top work lads. Whenever I want genuine info on a bike I search for your reviews
Just wow guys. What an epic video. Production above any other outlet in this field in my opinion. Minty Mint x
The top triple clamp looks so clean, love the look
Another great review as usual👌
Your content and editing just keeps getting better and better!
Amazing quality video. Very well done! Easily my favorite CZcams channel.
"Twat proof"

This has become better than any motoring show and specifically aimed at proper reviews of bikes with the odd funny trip thrown in....all of which require huge kudos given how it's done on such a budget. Proper sit down stream onto the big TV with a brew man time stuff A*
Man, I love your video's. You guys are awesome, stay safe and keep recording!
I live in Thailand (the worlds highest road death rate) on a Ninja 650 & moped.
From what I've seen in 4 years, I literally prey to God every day before i go out.
You would have to be insane to bring that lovely piece of engineering over here.
I used to love the old hurricane. The back end would slip getting into the corners but more throttle kept the road ....What a beast for it's time. Then the Rothmans. I loved the 80s. Lol
Can't wait to see how this bike does at the NW and TT, would love to see MD on one
Delighted to see honda back in the game..
MM 93 #1
@Jack Stucki I'm not referring to Moto GP and referring to the superbike class
@Jack Stucki Pretty sure Honda haven't won anything with a CBR1000rr in any race series apart from the World Endurance championship in bloody ages. Like at least 3 years dude... Not sure what MotoGP and Marquez dominating has to to with the CBR1000rr finally not being outdated and underpowered.....
@@SergioPerez-kz4nd How is 186hp underpowered. How many riders will ever use 186hp effectively anywhere.. 🤔
@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks when all of your competitor hits 200 bhp mark, you're underpowered
That intro was dope. Well timed with the fly by
Nice.... blade is back.. back again.. missed you in Houston fellas !
You want to know why this is the best motorcycle channel on YT? These guys just stood up for half an hour.
It still blows my mind that this bike is going over 200km/h in 2nd gear and almost 300 km/h in 4th gear. I'd love to know how far the speedo is off given Chris's comments about this vs. the Panigale in 6th.
Standard can exhaust noise test @ 50 cm 45deg 5000rpm at most tracks in the UK - she'll be grand! Exhaust valve doesn't open til 7000rpm. Keep er lit!
Nice comprehensive review. Honda is back!
You guys do an amazing job 🤙
Fantastic article. Rode a demo today. Just ordered the sp. amazing ride. A lot of fun. 105mph in 1st and 140mph in 2nd gear - madness. (watched some videos on youtube about the gearing).
You're lucky. Mine won't be delivered until September.
Fantastic review. I also like how Honda integrated the wings too over the Ducati. Its two schools: Ducati wings look lighter but the Honda more integrated. This things looks so fast....
That tune in the intro is a banger. And HOW did you manage that timing of the guy honking it up the straight after you'd finished talking! Jammy.
So happy to see Honda finally back at the top with the big boys.
Great review guys! I have a 2017 base model. I'm so glad you didnt rag on the previous generations. It's so great to have on the street!
Your bike will be a better road bike than this! This new one purely track focused.
@@robertprosser6856 I'm so excited to see this beast compete in wsbk! It will be great to see them on the podium again.
Best motorcycle channel in the freaking universe bloodyyy helll all other channels can pack up and leave!!!
Join if you can! They need our support
dyu hi the kid that just did the SuperDuke-R is a notch above these lads
@@michaelj.kastner5165 I'm a fan of Bike World and MCN, but they don't have anywhere near the personality, depth, humor, or production quality that this channel does. It's not even close. Chris and Fagan don't just get pretty shots and rattle off specs. They go into the nuances and they do it with style, wit, and childish shenanigans.
I don't know how this channel keeps upping its game, but fucks sake you keep getting better and better.
Great content lads, new blade looks epic
My 2017-CBR-1000SP2 has been Sublime, I can’t wait to get this new bike!!!
18:27 "Oh u sexy thing!" (110kms in knee drag corner,..camera pans to left and nooooo left hand on grip or anywhere in sight!??? 😳👌 Fagan is a damn legend I tell ya!!!
Almost makes me want to buy a blade....never thought I’d say that!
Great vid Mr Statham. Wonder if this bike will pass the soundlimits of 95db where I live, sounds like a proper race bike!
Amazing, this video is absolutely fantastic
Fabz Rust Rider Big Speaker Super Club epic intro. Gets the feels started
Wow the production quality is jizzy jizzy bang bang. 3 thumbs up.
44 Teeth reviews are THE best!
200kph in 2nd and 300 in 4th, no one can beat that! Wow!
Best 2020 Fireblade review. Thanks
came back to this video. I really want one, even though it'll never see a track !
Fantastic review! Well worth the wait.
24k for a toy is pretty much beyond the average Joe, but I really want one of these. Looks like Honda have got it right at last.
Great video as usual well done
Most of these Blades will be ridden on UK roads, looks promising but lets wait and see. Great video by the way. 👍
Damn, that intro is epic
If I had enough money, I'd.... still not get it. Dodgy knees and 6'1 frame seems I'm disqualified.
Great video guys!
Honda have made halo bikes in the past - RC30, NR750 with serious price tags. The Fireblade has always been the everyman sportsbike with an everyman price tag. They really should of made a RCV or something for taking on the WSB etc challenge and let its tech filter down to the Fireblade imho.
Indeed - I too was hoping for an RVF1000R but I doubt that will happen now.
Production value so good. That intro is mint. Can't wait til the mega test. I think the most major sticking point for the consumer that's going to ride these to the local cafe is the price, power band and looks. For the racers with sponsors or deep pockets looking to step on the box, not an issue. But that 2 stroke esque power band maybe horrendous on the road and tough to justify spending that kinda dough. It also just doesn't look premium from a design standpoint which is probably why you guys didn't mention how it looks, it aint sexy. But when they hit the used market....
Couldn't have said it better myself!👍
That intro was straight dirty, fellas 👌🏽
Darn! There goes my morning...Not going to be starting work for a little while.
Comprehensive, great review as always
Great review. Can't wait for the litre bike shoot out videos!
Hardly anyone seems to be doing news videos or any major commentary on Norton going into administration. Hope you guys do something on it soon. I would like to know more, and hopefully someone new will pick up the Norton baton and run like hell with it! Keep up the great work!
There are a few - you just need to look for them.
1:08 THAT'S MY WALLPAPER RIGHT THERE!!!
Another great review lads👍Is the 299kph max on the speedo not still to do with the gentlemen's agreement by the Big Four Japanese manufacturers back in the nineties (or whenever?)🤔
Great review, thx guys
Three more teeth on the rear sprocket... problem solved !
You guys act like big dorks, dont ever change !! You 2 having fun and being yourselves is what makes this the best bike channel...
Al you SOB I fucking love these vids!!! It was definitely worth the wait. I can't wait to see it against the other super bikes Awesome work!
Good review and work Gentlemen,out of curiousity have either of you been lucky enough to ride the RC213V-S ,if so would the difference in price to this Blade ( in riding terms ) be that noticeable ?.
Great video and quick tech question: what mounting solution are you using for your gopro on your chinbar? it looks minimalist and wonderful and I would love to check it out, thanks!
Another pukka video, quality takes time and i'd rather wait for content as good as this instead of anything else. Is there any update on the 44teeth trackday?
We need the first impressions as soon as possible! Live on Instagram or facebook or youtube... whatever. After that I am willing to wait for weeks for quality content.
Best intro track for a bike. Stonkin phat beat
Fun video and the music is on point! 👌🏻
Thankyou so much for doing what you do 👍🏽🏍🙃.
6:50
"I am actually fisting the intake!"
What a perv :D
Yeah man, i thought word fisting for doing that was only used in p*rn
"Sh'yeah ... that's what SHE said ... !!" 😋
KRINGE
Hilarious
Forward Fistable Fireblade, the triple F double R, H double 20...
If you have a road bike, I believe bottom emd and mid range is everything, it's sad not to have those, even on a track bike those are really important.
What 22 t***s gave this the thumbs down?! Brilliant review as always lads, keep it up, go 44!
They just don't like Fireblades.
You get the feeling Honda wants more Isle of Man and WSBK trophies...
Can't wait to see this in full race-spec and being canned by the best riders in the world.
Great review! Great bike
Interesting, and it's good to see Honda competitive even if they are now more expensive than their competition. Race reps interest me less and less now though as a pure road rider. It used to be that the appeal of the larger capacity sports bikes was the extra size/comfort and low/mid range grunt.
Absolutely no low or midrange grunt on this bike!👎
The motor sounds so sweet
Netflix quality music and video production so damn clean. The bikes good too
Never been a massive blade fan but that just might sway me, very nice bike
Remember when 12k would get you a brand spanking top of the tree sport bike,
Rip those days 😭
Alex Shorthouse thank electronics lol
My 07 R1 OTD $11,600 with a new Shoei & jacket....
I'm buying a 2020 R1 this fall...rip my bank account. Last and only bike I'm buying new lol.
Another great video!
PS. what's the intro's song name?
Bloody brilliant guys!
Wow, Good job Honda! Been reading in magazines for years that the Fireblade was always the "just not" bike to have.
steveman1982 bs, theyre fucking sweet period.
Awesome review. New subscriber here. You deserve more!
Those are one of the most beautiful cockpit
Pass the popcorn 🍿 it’s 44T time
