    Honda 'FireBlade' recall : 2003 and later model

    After deliberations, Honda released today:

    "With Public opinion of the 'Fireblade' changing, Honda have seen fit to recall all 'FireBlade RR' models for a graphics update.
    Bikes will be retrofitted with the new 'FireBlunt' model name."

    Will Honda cover the costs of the retrofit? I'm worried that after all the efforts to increase power and handling that there is nothing left over for covering such costs....

    Ummm I just finished watching a tape of Superbikes (and Supersport) on TV, I didn't think those white and green bikes were doing too bad...

    Certainly with CBR600RRs first second and third there for a while it must have made all the Suzuki and Yamaha riders feel a little less manly. (Or should have? )

    Kawasaki riders apparently can't count...
