HONDA FIREBLADE CBR1000 RR-R

The most striking Fireblade around town… there’s no two ways about it! When it comes to tribute acts, there are very few that actually nail it, but I have to say, I reckon Bob has done a cracking job with this bike. The closer you look, the better it gets; it’s an absolute peach. Undeniably, it’s the first thing that you notice with this bike, and I’ve got to say I love this flamboyant livery, which is inspired by the 1993 Honda Fireblade designed by Tadoa Baba. I don’t know the actual name of this design, but Bob’s calling it the Unicorn… it works for me. Personally, I’d like to see manufacturers taking gambles on their designs more often. This one has definitely stood the test of time.

MV Agusta's a bit behind the curve when it comes to hardcore adventure touring machinery: its Turismo Veloce had a bit of an adventure angle, but you'd never take one up a green lane. Better late than never, though – so we're well chuffed to see this
