The Honda Racing UK team has revealed their 2021 BSB line-up of CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP mounted riders, featuring Glenn Irwin, Ryo Mizuno and Takumi Takahashi, alongside Tom Neave in the Pirelli National Superstock Championship.
For the 2021 season, the Honda Racing UK Fireblade goes back to its roots and features the iconic Tri-Colour livery, with the addition of a carbon fibre mudguard, belly pan and rear hugger, which can be purchased separately through Honda Genuine Parts for the road going machine.
