This is a shameless chance for us to show you some more images of the 2017 Honda Fireblade in WSB trim. It doesn’t matter if Hayden and Bradl finish first or last all season, we think the bike is a flying sex machine and will be bringing you a full gallery of images after every round.
Nicky Hayden just sitting around, getting ready to go and being a badass.
Bradl, playing it cool.
Hayden unleashes the beast, kind of. The bike is new, it’ll get better.
This has to be the most photographed tree in the whole of Australia.
Hayden, slingshoting past that weird tree.
This picture needs more Red Bull Honda Fireblade.
Bradl, absolutely funking the shit out of Philip Island.
Both riders scored points and no doubt came away with a much better understanding of race pace and the steps they need to take to improvements. It’s a new bike, so expect small steps until they get all their factory ducks in a row. Unless it rains, when we’ll be betting our house on Hayden nabbing a podium…
