Couple weeks ago I purchased and took home a 2018 SP1 for a very good deal, that I could not pass on.

The perks of working for a Honda dealership has it benefits.
I made myself a binder with the service manual, full OEM parts fiche list, and HRC parts list

Very nice SP1 and great build so far. I'll continue to watch your progress.

Hoping there are some over seas riders here that are viewing and reading my posts. Looking for a shop or online place that has or can get OEM decals from a 2018 Fireblade. Here in Canada the bikes are labeled as “1000RR”. But looking to get the “Fireblade” decals. Any help would be great. Pictures below to make sense of what I want.

Nice build, will give me some ideas for my '17 SP. So will be keeping an eye on your progress!

Very cool. I have one of those HRC brake reservoir sock things. The packaging was funny, it was labeled as an "official" HRC part for the RCV.

Did the Brembo clutch lever change the engagement point?

I'll be watching this one too even though mine is a 14. Will be interested to see where you find the stickers. I've been dredging through mounds of garbage search results trying to find similar stuff for my SP.

Give Awesome Graphics in the UK a try. They have what you need and also do custom work. I've bought several items from them over the years. Reasonable pricing and fast shipping!

I appreciate the help. But I have my own vinyl cutter, and someone who can make pretty much any sticker.
I’m really wanting and looking for OEM only. I know pricing is a lot more, but that’s what I’m like lol.
Thank you though

For stickers I use Chris Kunsel at DrippinWet.com, he will make pretty much whatever you want, the only thing you may have to wait a while to get your things since he is the one that does all the decals for the Motoamerica guys.

The reservoir socks are the real McCoy, and are the same socks they use on the MotoGP bikes for Marquez and Lorenzo’s bikes. Soon as I saw the part #. I knew I had to have it lol

The Brembo mechanical clutch doesn’t really change much. I’d say it’s more for a bling bling factor. I myself like it better than stock. Also looks better having all Brembo up top.

Yah I’ve been searching for them and I think I’ve found the part #s but can’t confirm.

I managed to secure all the same stuff you are after - HRC mat, HRC fluid socks, Golden side covers, Ti bolts - hell I even got a full OEM etc decal set before the HRC bike landed (intending to use them on the race body) but the one elusive mod was OEM Fireblade SP1 or SP2 decal sets.

Unlike USA/Canada where either through local dealer or Partzilla all part say seem available, much of the Honda inventory is on permanent backorder through overseas Honda dealers, decal sets included.

Good luck in you search -

I used galespeed VRE master and and their clutch perch+lever setup. Super nice stuff, like Japanese Brembo. Problem was the clutch leverage ratio ws different and the engagement point moved much closer to the bar. I ended up taking it off and going back to stock for the clutch. Still have the master on there. It looks janky with mismatched clutch lever though.

Do let me know if you ever get a response as I would still like a full Fireblade SP2 decalset.
