They are the same bike except for maybe some emission add-ons that are required in Europe. Maybe someone can verify but I once heard most of the bike manufactures choose not to name their performance bikes in the US for insurance reasons. Other then the Ninja I don’t of any other sport bike that has a proper name. _____________________________ 2006 Red & Black CBR1000RR Street Bike With a few mods 2007 White & Silver CBR600RR For the wife 2005 CBR600RR Totally for the track!

The Fireblades are normally different color scheme's than U.S. bikes. I have been trying to get my hands on some Fireblade bodywork. Just to have a different bike here in the U.S. But overall they are the same bikes just different names. (in reply to mrwtbill) Post #: 5
