Honda’s New Naked CB1000R Arrives
Honda’s highly
anticipated new release
into the naked bike
market - the CB1000R
- has arrived.
The CB1000R
features a dynamic,
hard-edged design
that immediately
grabs attention with its
unmistakeable look of
muscular performance.
Its short, slim tail
cowl, brawny fuel
tank and side cowls
convey an image
of awesome street
performance whilst
its mechanical parts
including magnesium
head, nickel-plated Allen-head bolts and
ACG covers, exude a high-tech look of
purposeful performance.
Remarkably, the CB1000R looks and
feels more like a compact mid-sized
sportsbike than the full-bodied litre-class
performer it really is.
Like the mid-displacement Hornet, the
CB1000R’s compact yet powerful Fireblade

CB1000R’s engine
has also been tuned
for stronger, more
exciting power that
extends further up the
powerband, resulting
in nearly 30% stronger
performance.
All this power gets to
the rear wheel through
a light-action hydraulic
clutch that takes full
advantage of the
engine’s strong low-end
torque to allow it to
be engaged at engine
speeds of less than
2,000rpm without fear of
engine stalling.
The CB1000R comes
in two versions - Standard and ABS - and
two colours including Dragon Green
Metallic and Pearl Night-star Black.
The standard model is available now
the ABS, version was due to be released
late December.
