The former BSB champion returns to the series in 2011 after two years spent on the world stage, Byrne pairing with former WSBK rival and 2010 BSB winner Ryuichi Kiyonari at HM Plant Honda.
The first time the 34-year-old has ridden anything other than a Ducati since the end of 2007, though he says he spent the first day at Calafat adjusting to the four-cylinder machine, he is already confident he will be fast on it.
"It's been a good day; if a bit windy here which catches you off balance at times but aside from that we have made a really good start. We put in a good number of laps and got some of the initial work done that is always needed at the start of the season. My initial reaction to riding the HM Plant Honda is that the Fireblade is flippin' fast, especially after a few months off!
