This is what my new '00 Fireblade 929 looks like. It's easy to feel like a road racing star on this

bike with it's swift handling, 152 Hp and a weight of only 170 Kilos! This bike does what you tell it to

without delay! Believe me when I say, it moves!

The bike came to Sweden in three colour combinations, red and blue, yellow and blue and black and

grey  that became my choice.

  By it's looks it doesn't seem very comfortable to ride, but having attached a Bagster tank cover and bag (which I can lean on when filled) it's easy to go for long trips without getting very tired in your arms. The pillion seat is what I believe amongst the best in the class. My girlfriend was quite pessimistic, being used to a combined seat like the Honda VFR I had earlier but she admitted very quickly that it was just as comfortable as it was on the VFR. One thing she still misses is the ability to cuddle up right behind me which she can't on this bike since the driver's and the pillion seats are separate.
