“On my third blade now and still puts a smile on my face everytime I put the key in the ignition.
Pretty good on tyres and brakes.
Never get any nasty surprises when it comes to MOT time.
Parts you can get cheaper from places like eBay but what price is your bike worth ? Is it really worth saving a few quid here and there ?? Your probably gonna have to get the original Honda part in the end.
Very forgiving ride
Go buy
Ride
Enjoy
Most of all be safe

“My bike is a brilliant all rounder, it is happy commuting, excellent for Sunday blast with friends and does the 200 mile motorway journey to visit family twice a year.”
“2002 model FireBlade is an excellent bike. Fast enough for me with excellent handling and really easy to ride. Surprisingly comfortable (ok it's no PanEuropean) but i've put a top box on, dont laugh, and heated grips. Taken this bike to Assen and LeMans, with pillion, and the power makes cruising very easy.
This bike is now thirteen years old but is still modern looking with enough performance for most real world riders.”
“swapped my xjr 1300 for this bike its easy to ride fast and forgiving done spain twice on this bike and will be doing again next year .I think this bike will be swopping with me for a few years yet ..”
“I love this bike - it's comfy and suits me for touring but gives you a thrill if you want one. I have done 17 000 miles in a year and a half - and I had a ninja at the same time. I sold the ninja and kept the Honda because the build quality is amazing. it is also very light and for me (a small woman), this bike is ideal.”
“Great bike does everything you wont of it. The only down side if i need to be picky is when on a very hot day and you are stuck in a heavy traffic jam the heat just comes up at you Evan when it is working at normal operating temp.Not that many really hot days here though.
