Honda has rolled out the two new special edition CBR1000RR Fireblade SP bikes that are just for the UK market to begin with. Namely the Christened TT Special and Black Edition, these are the same bikes that made their entrance at the Silverstone round of the 2016 British Superbike Championship. The Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP TT Special arrivesin a painted in an exceptional tri-colour livery that is used by British road-racing legend, John McGuinness. The bike is being offered as an honor to McGuinness, for breaking through the lap record at the Isle of Man TT, during the previous year. Talking about the revisions in these bikes, they certainly look much sharper, edgier and superior, while it would certainly have an upgraded engine line up.

These tweaks definitely talk about a better performance, as the 999cc inline four unitenhances the performance to a great extent. The credit certainly also goes towards a racy Akrapovic exhaust system. Apart from its benefits, it also houses a few of the exceptional specifications such as levers and lever guards, cable adjusters, paddock stand as well as crash pads along with race-spec Galfer brake rotors.

The Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP Black Edition also acquires all the aforementioned specifications other than the supplementary dark colored bubble screen along with carbon fiber accents that all accompany and enhance the bike’s black hue scheme. The Akrapovic exhaust system is an optional feature, but we guess most people would go for it. Engine wise the bike is bigger as per its capacity now. Since the last three years since the Honda CBR1000RR Firebladewas majorly upgraded. The manufacturer has preserved the same in its special edition models as well. The Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP Black Edition would arrive in the market carrying a price tag of INR 11.5 lakh, whereas the TT Special would be available at INR 16.08 lakh. Both the bikes would be available in UK markets to start with, while the Indian launch is still a question.
