Sharper looks, stronger performance and astoundingly responsive control. From its compact new proportions to its breathtaking response to every rider input, everything about the new 2008 CBR1000RR Fireblade stakes out a new standard in motorcycle performance and design aesthetics that will stand as a milestone in the history of litre-class Super Sports development, much as the original CBR900RR did when it fired the first shot in the high-performance revolution sixteen years ago.

Representing the next innovative leap in this proud tradition, the new 2008 CBR1000RR Fireblade features an even more compact, mid-displacement-sized form, phenomenally lighter weight in the design and manufacture of its frame, engine and chassis components, and innovative performance-enhancing developments like a new underslung exhaust system and new ‘assist slipper' clutch that make it faster than ever, easier and more comfortable to extend one's riding capabilities on the street, and more of a dominating form on race circuits the world over.

As this next generation of the Fireblade reclaims its rightful place at the pinnacle of the litre Super Sports class, the future of CBR-RR performance shines brighter than ever.

The CBR®600's most radical redesign since the introduction of the RR in 2003 is highlighted by a whole new engine, frame and bodywork that results in a smaller, lighter, more-powerful CBR600RR with a class-leading power-to-weight ratio and unparalleled performance.

A new lighter weight stainless steel four-into-one exhaust features new inline-exhaust valve to control exhaust pressure for maximum performance.

A new intake-air control valve (IACV) minimizes torque reaction and smoothes response to small throttle changes through gradual reductions of air and fuel intake when the throttle is opened and closed.

Features

• Class-leading power-to-weight ratio for outstanding acceleration and handling.
• Smaller, lighter, more compact inline four-cylinder engine.
• Improved midrange performance and enhanced peak power.
• Significant weight reduction in engine and chassis.

For 20 years now, Honda's world-renowned VFR has consistently been hailed as one of the finest all round motorcycles of any displacement.

The VFR800 is a machine so remarkably well tuned that it feels just as comfortable and confident flying up and down mountain passes, as it does cruising the highway.

The latest version continues to offer a unique fuel-injected V4 engine that produces a band of strong, accessible power through a two stage valve actuation system. Revisions to the VFR's unique V4 VTEC sees a smoothness in performance like never before, translating to low-end torque as well as the searing power that can be expected of high performing 4-valve mills. Styling as well as effortless braking are integral to the design of the VFR.

In addition to the fine-tuned aluminium chassis, the VFR also offers a specially configured Dual Combined Brake System to ensure smooth and effective stops. The VFR's bodywork takes high-speed aerodynamic design to a new level of excitement. Its striking 4-beam headlight system is arrayed in an unmistakable ‘V' pattern around a deeply angled windscreen, and its distinctive ‘European' looks combine sharp angles and edges with sweeping curves that terminate in a remarkable tail design.

In true sport-tourer style, the VFR offers a matching luggage option for those who want to explore the wide open road for days on end. Pillion passengers have been well looked after in the latest VFR's artful design. With the bold ‘Centre-Up' exhaust system located under its broad thickly padded seat, room was made to lower the foot pegs to a more comfortable position. Wider, comfortably shaped cast resin hand grips can be easily attached or detached for the ultimate in riding comfort.

Features

• V4 VTEC valve timing
• Full Euro-3 compliance
• Specially made pannier set
• Carbon fibre-look instrument panel
• Carbon fibre-look upper triple-clamp cover
