Honda CBR1000RR has been recognized as an ultimate superbike for quite a long time and its Fireblade version is an ultimate fusion of picturesque design, unstoppable power and efficient performance. Despite having all these splendid factors, the anticipations of the bike enthusiasts are always higher hence the automaker has come out with some new updates on 2017 Fireblade including a considerable weight loss and semi-autonomous electronic suspension.
Thanks to MCN, we have got the latest information about 2017 Fireblade altogether with some exemplificative images. The source believes that the upcoming model will come out with slightly more power output around 180 Bhp as well as lighter weight of 8 kg. Even after having an update, it is still so far from its rivals the BMW S1000RR and the Kawasaki ZX-10R who are running with a huge power of 195 Bhp and 200 Bhp respectively.

Furthermore, the superbike is reportedly going to be amazed by a new ram-air system with a fresh air intake, a revamped fuel-injection system alongside the reduced engine internal friction to generate more power. Apart from remarkable power specs, the Honda is also bringing a Bosch electronic control system to replace the company’s ongoing C-ABS system, which is 10 kg heavier from the said unit. Some of the other notable features are - traction control, cornering ABS and anti wheelie.
The most striking feature of the upcoming Fireblade is the new Smart EC semi-active suspension that was earlier found in the Ducati 1299 Panigale S. Over the designing front, the bike is expected to have some tweaks as well, but, the overall look will remains same as the regular one. Moreover, the exhaust system is also going to be considered in the modification list owing to the new Euro-4 regulations. Anyway, we are still in dark about the launch date as well as the price that could be lighten up soon by the bike maker.
