Funnily enough even though Michael is (mostly) right in what he says. I demod the blade rr-r sp and fell in love with it. I’ve a 2019 heavily modded blade and the new 2020 is really fun and exciting. The engine sound when the flap opens is intoxicating (it’s a full titanium system too). The handling is immense and the Build quality is better than any blade I remember and up there with the best of them . The front end is so planted and smooth. Can’t say I’ve ever been a huge fan of the bmw especially the finish. I mean the welding on that exhaust is shocking (I know most people will change it but I’m not sure that’s a good excuse). Ducati is just too hot to enjoy on the roads. Love them all to be honest but I think people who are thinking about the blade need to ride it. Even the riding position over the 2019 isn’t too extreme. It’s basically a MotoGP bike for the road.
@bellicromanx
@bellicromanx 4 года назад
Is the bottom end as weak as he says?
@theonlyredspecial
@theonlyredspecial 4 года назад
@@bellicromanx its certainly not weak no - the butterfly valve doesnt open until about 6,000 rpm in first and second, and about 4,500 in 3rd - although getting higher than 3rd gear on the road if you are in the 8k+ 'zone' its going to be license losing. I demod the bike and was hitting 90mph in first gear before hitting the max revs. 2nd gear apparently you can hit 144mph - so the gearing is very tall indeed - an indication of the pure track bike design by Honda. Sprocket changes might be done by some new owners im guessing. I have a 2013 respol which is dynojetted and a 2019 black carbon fireblade (both heavily modified and you can see short videos on them on my channel - ive put about £10,000 to £15,000 into both my fireblades), and they have a bit more 'go' below 4,000 rpm, but I think the 2020 blade is deceptive in the fact that its actually pulling really well, but it has such an immense power band around 8,000 rpm that mentally 'you think' it is not doing much until then, but thats definitely not the case. I think we are seeing from reviewers a repeat of the comments on the 2016-2019 bike that it 'lacked horsepower' (Michael was not guilty of this however he was spot on with his analysis) - most people who didnt ride those bikes just repeated what a 'rival brand' owner said and it became almost a 'myth' online. Who needs 190bhp for the road? lets be honest. The 2020 bike has a dual exhaust system, if you study it - Honda claim the smaller pipe is for lower revs to keep noise down, and to help boost torque, and the straight through pipe opens up via the butterfly valve higher in the rev range to help the short stroke engine. I spoke with Akraprovic about this (as ive bought so much stuff from them) and they are making a carbon end can for the titanium system on the fireblade to help increase horsepower by around 5bhp and to boost torque at the lower end. Its louder however (around 105dBa @ 5,500rpm) - and I think Honda were very aware of the design when they made the bike - its already going to be too loud to get accepted on most tracks in the UK and I think unless you alter the exhaust its going to be basically a track day bike for Spain. It sounds like a MOTOGP bike after 10,000 rpm. Absolutely nothing like it on the road right now. My views of the 2020 blade were a huge step up in build quality - something Michael noted well, and the keyless fob system is genius as it has let Honda create a huge arm sized ram air induction centralised system without having a massive blockage in the middle. I think the bike is pulling 0-60 mph times (according to a friend of mine who works for HRC) of 2.7 secs, so I think this 'lack of grunt' is based more around the fact that Honda have unashamedly focused on high gearing and almost a 600cc style gear change style to suit track riders. My overall view of the 2020 blade was that it was build to incredibly high standards both in regards to the equipment on the bike, but also the finishing standards. The engine is a short stroke MotoGP design to increase power in the high end - its not going to be so tolerant of sloppy gear changes - so on the road Michael is right, you won't be able to push it so hard if you are lazy with your gear changes but its a heck of a lot of fun and makes plenty of power for anyone on the road you just have to learn to ride it a bit differently. I already bought a black SP RRR with the carbon kit (and I already own two, im not just another internet bloke without prior experience). Can I just say, two of my friends have the BMW RR's and they are great bikes - I have owned quite a few BMWs over the years, but I think the finishing on these bikes is well below the standard of Ducati and Honda. I still can't get over the work on the exhaust system on the BMW. It looks like I did the welding on it in my garage. No one ever seems to mention the shoddy build quality but as Michael says, its a much cheaper bike now compared to the RR-R Honda and Ducati. ive ridden the Ducati, and its an immense bike, but its incredibly hot under the arse cheeks, I didnt enjoy it very much on the road. Get a test drive yourself if you are interested - its the only way to get your own view - I am not discrediting Michael - he was one of the only reviewers of the 2017-2019 blade who NAILED it while everyone else was 'its only got 190bhp!'. But I think he has been a little bit harsh on the RR-R. Its really not designed to be a road bike and while I agree with a lot of his points, I don't agree with them all - the brakes on my demo bike were fantastic and in my view the riding position isnt that much different from my 2019 bike (im 6ft 3) and if its a problem, get a GILLE rearset when they come out in a few months, and I think the 'fun factor' with the RR-R is just next level - its much more involving that any other 1000cc bike ive ridden in the last 5 years - and its super smooth with precision fuelling..Its exactly what a lot of people were saying the blade has been missing for years. Honda never seem to win with the reviewers - probably why the RR is still for sale as the 'super sport road bike' while the RR-R is just designed to be crazy! The front end on the RR-R is absolutely mind blowing you can take liberties with it you wouldn't believe- I am pretty sure the winglets didn't do much at the speed I was riding it, but that Ohlins suspension is just incredible - it feels better to me than the R1M i rode a few months ago and its basically the same system (apart from the Honda dash configurations).

@@pravesh736 1 tooth would probably still not be enough to pull as hard as an S1000RR or V4S from down low. And the thing about gearing is you don't make any more power your just let the engine rev faster, you still end up with an engine that needs to be screaming past 6/8000rpm to really get going. It's fun on a trackday or a Sunday blast, it's annoying when you're cruising on the motorway or shifting through traffic, and kind of defeats the purpose of a liter bike over a supersport for the road which is supposed to be the extra low end torque.

Thing with road tester reviews is they always have to asses the package as a whole and base it on what they like and think a bike should do and have. For me a sports bike doesn't need heated grips, cruise control etc. I want it to be focused sharp and components that work on road but also can cope with track work. There's bikes like mt10, tuono v4 and a 1290 superduke for that. So the Honda could easily be the best most focused sports bike.

Alvaro Bautista once said to the press the new CBR as he was riding in the WSBK felt almost like a two-stroke bike in its response and other characteristics. Well that could be a killer if you can keep the engine in the upper rev range most of the time and have the means to control the bike when the actual power comes on. Other than that I am afraid the outgoing version of the CBR would be a much better road bike.

hands down, the BMW is the MOST technological motorcycle in the world. If that panigale 4Vs had cruise control, heated grips and a few other technological wonders that BMW has, I think they would have to create more v4S's because the demand for them would go up tremendously. But, at last, Ducati WILL NOT add heated grips and they certainly won't add cruise control on the v4s...

Great review as per usual and I like the way it is compared in context as a road bike. I've owned the new S1000RR for around 6 months now and my sentiment is exactly as described! Brilliant road bike and yes, maybe it lacks some of those special feels that the Ducati dishes out, but if you enjoy going out for a "decent" road ride or road trip it is an incredible bike. Shame to hear about the downsides to the new Honda as a roadie. Looking forward to seeing how it goes in WSBK however!

Interesting to learn BMW built the S1000RR off of the GSX-R last. I did not know that. Every time I entertain getting a liter bike, and shop around and bum testrides, those two stand out as my favorites. Perhaps the GSX-R even a bit more, as the reach to the bars seem a tiny bit shorter, and the BMW seems to have ridiculously limited steering lock, even for a superbike. Those two have my favorite sounding engines of the bunch as well, which really only means they sound the most like a 600 when wound out... That new Blade does sound crazy in this video, but "too loud" for even a trackday, pretty much limits it for the racers Honda no doubt designed it for.

This maybe a tradition for some Ducati's. One complaint on the big V4 was that the rear tire would send road water though the seat to you butt. Have they changed that?
