Honda VTR1000 SP-2 (2002 - 2008)

Reviewed: by Visordown

The VTR1000 SP-2 was both a blessing and nightmare for Honda. It was designed to win back the WSB title from those pesky Italians (Ducati) but failed to set the world on fire, despite two WSB titles.

There are bikes that are manufactured and there are bikes that are engineered . No need to guess which one the Sp2 is . That's what makes them so special .

Go check out their machines and you'll understand , the RC range is truly spectacular. Will your blade be remembered in 20yrs from now ? As a specialist machine, this is one of the finest V twin machines to come out of Japan .
