Honda UK is celebrating John McGuinness’ 30 years of Isle of Man TT racing with a 15-bike run of CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP replicas.
Honda UK will produce just 15 examples of a special John McGuinness 30th Anniversary Replica CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP, recreating the Superbike the road-racing legend rode at the 2026 Isle of Man TT.
The road-legal limited edition celebrates 30 years since McGuinness first competed at the TT in 1996 and wears a detailed reproduction of the Honda Racing UK livery used on his 2026 Superbike.
That colour scheme itself looks back to McGuinness’ first TT appearance aboard a Honda RS250, including references to his long-time association with Paul Bird Motorsport and a distinctive green number board inspired by those used for the Lightweight class in 1996.
McGuinness and Honda have enjoyed a remarkable association at the Isle of Man. Among the highlights are the first 130mph lap of the TT course and his dominant period through the event’s Superbike era, including victory in the 2015 Senior TT.
Underneath the commemorative bodywork is the 2026 CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP, powered by a 999cc liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine producing a claimed 214bhp. Its specification includes split throttle bodies, HRC-developed aerodynamics, a six-axis IMU, a swingarm derived from the RC213V-S and an Akrapovic-developed titanium exhaust.
Each McGuinness replica gets the full race-replica livery and an individually numbered headstock plaque, along with a Honda Genuine Accessories tall screen, seat cowl and HRC oil-filler cap.
GB Racing engine covers are also fitted, along with an Evotech radiator guard, brake-lever guard and paddock-stand bobbins. The bikes will be supplied on Metzeler tyres, with the original-equipment tyres also included.
The package extends beyond the motorcycle itself. Each buyer receives a limited-edition KYT KX-1 John McGuinness replica helmet in their preferred size, signed by McGuinness, as well as a Gee-Tech rear paddock stand carrying the 30th Anniversary logo and a custom garage mat.
Owners will also be invited to an exclusive handover event on the Isle of Man, where they can meet McGuinness and, if they choose, put the bike’s first 37¾ miles on it by following him for a lap of the TT Mountain Course.
The John McGuinness 30th Anniversary Replica CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP is priced at £37,730 in the UK, with all 15 motorcycles to be offered by invitation.
