Despite resounding success both on track and in showrooms, Honda pulled the plug on the CBR600RR in Europe in 2017. A maturing and fast-changing market allied to tightening EU emission regulations made the decision relatively easy for the Japanese manufacturer, but sport bike fans from Madrid to Melbourne were disappointed because the CBR was a fantastic bike. A highly evolved, mass-centralized RC213V for the masses; a pocket-rocket that oozed HRC thinking and quality. It was missed. Honda have now re-introduced it and we flew to the very fast and demanding Portimão track in Portugal to put the reborn screamer through its paces
