Phoenix Motorcycles support the Forget Me Not Foundation

As we've mentioned many times before, at Phoenix we take pride in giving back to deserving charities, and this weekend we were honoured to be supporting the Forget Me Not Foundation.

On Saturday 15th February, the Forget Me Not Foundation held a fundraiser at The Radisson Hotel in Glasgow's city centre. From the get go you could tell that we were in for a fantastic evening. 

Throughout the night there were various fundraising events within the event itself, with the total figure reaching a whopping £60,000 and Phoenix were proud to contribute to this. 

Instead of donating money to the Forget Me Not Foundation, we decided to donate a Vision 50 Repsol Scooter as an auction prize, which ended up selling for £2,200.

The lucky winners: Mr. & Mrs. Ferguson

We were delighted with how popular the scooter was, but more importantly, both the Forget Me Not Foundation and the winners were delighted with their prize too. 

Overall this was a fantastic night not to be forgotten, we were more than happy to help and absolutely honoured to be a part of it.

NEW Honda Fireblade now at Phoenix Grangemouth.

For 21 years Honda has pursued a concept of 'Total Control' with the Fireblade, after rewriting the rulebook in 1992 with the original CBR900RR. Over the last decade the CBR1000RR has developed into perhaps the most balanced Super Sport machine available, combining exceptional performance and handling with a satisfying ability to extract the very best from every rider. Victories in the World Super Bike (WSB) championship and all-conquering success at the Isle of Man TT, with average lap speeds of 130mph plus over 37.73 miles of real roads racing, is testament to the CBR1000RR's innate capacity.

The open-class CBR has built a loyal army of fans around the world over two decades. And in response to demand from a hard-core of performance enthusiasts Honda - for the very first time - in 2014 is producing the CBR1000RR Fireblade SP. A track-focused, yet fully road legal, version of the bike that not only looks special - it is special.

A track-focused CBR1000RR Fireblade featuring Ohlins front and rear suspension, Brembo mono block front brake calipers, single seat unit and special Tricolour paint and sharing the CBR1000RR's uprated cylinder head and power boost, plus factory-matched engine internals. The chassis wears circuit-ready front and rear Ohlins suspension plus Brembo four-piston mono block calipers, with frame revisions and new top and bottom yokes to suit. 

Honda's electronic Combined Anti-lock Brake System is an option, with software remapped appropriately. Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres are the finishing touch. The 999.8cc inline four-cylinder engine gets the same updated cylinder head as the standard 2014 CBR1000RR Fireblade, with improved inlet/exhaust gas flow and combustion efficiency, and the extra 2kW peak power boost. However it features factory-matched pistons and con-rods, to ensure optimum internal balance. 

As a track-focused machine there's no provision for a pillion and a sleek single seat unit saves weight. Further marking the SP version out from standard is its own unique Tricolour paint - white and two-tone blue, with a central red stripe and trademark Honda gold wheels.

The CBR1000RR SP uses a new 'wave' design ignition key; it offers improved security and its compact size greatly reduces the chance of breakage. Also new is the fuel tank cap - it uses an improved breather design for better venting. 

Instrumentation is a multi-function LCD with a cockpit display dominated by the digital bar-type linear tachometer that scrolls left to right as engine speed increases. Beneath this are the main numerical readouts: gear position, coolant temperature, speedometer, clock/lap time, trip/fuel efficiency/fuel consumption and odometer/numerical tachometer. At the bottom of the display are lights for headlight high beam, neutral and indicators.

Pricing
All motorcycles and scooters are protected by 'state of the art' identification technologies as part of the Master Security scheme.

John McLain rides out to Assen...

Last week 11 riders braved the trip to the Netherlands for the British Superbike round, at the TT Circuit in Assen. One of them was our very own John McLain from Phoenix Honda Grangemouth.

The weather was fine, although it could have been better, but it allowed us to endure the long ride through the UK to Hull safely. Then onto rotterdam to catch the overnight ferry. 

With hundreds of bikes on the boat, John was the only one to get breathalised as they were leaving! It goes without saying that he passed...

After leaving the ferry at Rotterdam, the rest of the journey was quick and straight, led by John and Graham from Honda UK. As usual, the hospitality was fantastic with great food and another amazing tour around the garage.

With the night closing in, it was time for a BBQ at 'Camp Yippy' with lots of refreshments and the new chef doing a great job with the pink BBQ... 

The race itself was edge of the seat stuff... The team are really looking forward to the final round down at Brands Hatch on 18th october.

There will be camping and a BBQ with some truly fantastic people, unfortunately for time for the last time this year.

Phoenix Honda Bikes road trip to Oulton Park

Saturday 16th July Oulton Park British Super Bike Championship Round 7.

John McLain of Phoenix Honda Grangemouth took 20 customers down to Oulton Park and here is what he had to say about it.

Oulton park is situated in Cheshire and is one of the more spectacular circuits of the series, at 06.00, 20 riders set of from phoenix Honda motorcycles here at grangemouth for the 240 mile ride closely followed by the van... or so we thought, torrential rain stopped 7 even getting to the meet up points but fortunately 13 made it although 10 turned up in cars!,

The ride down for Anne and robin fox and myself was to say the least wet, however on reaching the circuit and entering Hondas hospitality suit makes it all worth while, we had lunch with Keith amor, Shane shaky burn, Ryuichi Kiyonari, and the legend that is John McGuiness, after lunch it was a tour of the garage to see the bikes being prepped and onto the pit walk all vip courtesy of Honda and hosted by Fiona Cole who did a fantastic job of keeping us in check and certainly new her stuff !

Then once all done its over to the campsite for a BBQ and refreshment, and the camp party began... Up at 7.00 for more bacon butties and lots of tea and coffee, camp packed and on to the circuit for the days racing, even in the rain it is an awesome circuit with lots of action, the ride home again the heavens opened and did not let up until almost home.

All in all a fantastic weekend, even torrential rain failed to dampen the spirits of the 13 of us that made it.
