A collector's item which I found in the Netherlands after a long search for a first generation Honda Fireblade. These iconic bikes are becoming more and more interesting. It’s already noticeable from sales prices you see nowadays. It is also a really special motorbike: the Honda Fireblade first generation was a real game changer at the time within the motorcycling world. Their focus was on a lighter bike and a powerful engine block. A beautiful marriage which required discipline from the rider. There was no steering damper as standard. The iconic round headlights with perforated air holes next to them are very nice and instantly recognizable as a first generation. Grab this unique opportunity to purchase something very special.
