Classic Hondas - Fireblade vs VFR750. An owner's view

Two iconic and charismatic Hondas from the glory years, but which is best? As a Honda Fanboy, here, I do a detailed run through of what for me, are each bike's strengths and weaknesses across 4 categories to determine A WINNER! These are personal views and opinions and I'm no nerdy expert, so there may be things you disagree with, in which case please join in the comments conversation. The Fireblade is a 1997 CBR900RR-V and has covered 28k miles. Modifications include upgraded bake discs, pads, and braided brake lines front and rear. A Hagon weight adjusted shock and double bubble windscreen. The VFR is a 1996 VFR750FT (RC36), which has covered 54k miles. Modifications include, petal front brake discs and pads, a Hagon rear shock a SP Engineering Trioval Carbon exhaust and Powerbronze double bubble windscreen.
