VEHICLE REVIEW

2011 Honda CB1000R

Superbike Performance. And A Style All Its Own. Feast your eyes on the all-new Honda CB1000R. Superbike performance. A comfortable, do-it-all riding position, and style that's off the charts. The CB1000R is a new take on a timeless concept. A no-nonsense superbike that's not afraid to show off its muscle where everyone can see it. We took a CBR1000RR powerplant—and retuned it for even more midrange power and torque. Then we built a special chassis that puts the engine out front and center, and that also lets you sit more upright. The result is one of the most versatile open-class bikes the world has ever seen. And also one of the best looking. But don’t wait to decide. Let your dealer know you want one, because availability will be limited for this model! Part high-performance sportbike, part mean and lean boulevard warrior. The outrageous new CB1000RA is the Naked bike that only Honda could build, with its stunning blend of snarling, take-no-prisoners attitude and surprisingly user-friendly everyday rideability. Packing the punch of a litre-class Superbike thanks to its CBR-derived fuel injected engine, the CB1000RA's enhanced low-to-midrange torque gives it extra oomph in the tight quarters of the city while retaining effortless passing power on the open road. The sturdy aluminum mono-backbone frame is visually hardly even there, but it connects the aluminum Pro-Arm swingarm and fully adjustable 43 mm inverted fork to create a chassis that's stable when you need it to be, and nimble and responsive when you want to let loose on a twisty backroad. Plus, standard Combined Braking System with ABS lets you ride with confidence even when the road surface is less than ideal. The new Honda CB1000RA: it's naked aggression in a fun-to-ride package.

Technical Features , The New 2011 Honda CB1000R

The new CB1000R is a perfect example of Honda innovation. Combining power, light weight, and refined, responsive handling with its good looks, it’s equally at home on a sportbike ride, a weekend-long getaway, or a boulevard prowl.

998cc DOHC Engine

The CB1000R uses a 998cc inline-four engine based on our CBR1000RR's, but tuned to produce more torque and horsepower in the midrange and bottom end–the perfect combination for a machine like this.

Lowboy-Style Muffler

The CB1000R's lowboy muffler not only looks cool and sounds great, it also offers a handling advantage by moving the silencer lower and closer to the bike's center of mass.

Single-Sided Swingarm

Proven on Honda's endurance racebikes, the CB1000R's single-sided swingarm not only looks awesome, but makes rear-wheel maintenance easier as well.

Pro-Link Rear Suspension

CB1000R's Pro-Link® rear suspension offers spring preload and rebound damping adjustability.

Our-Into-One Exhaust

Looks great, sounds great, and helps increase performance: How's that for a win-win-win situation? The four-into-one header with its flowing pipes pays homage to classic Honda inline fours of the 1970s like the CB400 Supersport. Some things just never go out of style.

Gravity Die-Cast Aluminum Mono-Backbone Frame

Gravity Die-Cast technology gives the CB1000R a chassis that's strong, but light. The single backbone architecture links the steering head to the swingarm pivot, but without any frame spars to interrupt the CB1000R's lines.

PGM-FI Fuel Injection

The CB1000R's Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) ensures crisp throttle response and both low- and high-rpm performance. In addition, there's no choke to mess with, and the CB1000R runs perfectly at all altitudes and temperatures, even on cold mornings.

Radial Front-Brake Calipers

The CB1000R's radial-mounted monoblock front-brake calipers are stiffer, for better brake feel and performance. Each caliper uses four pistons that squeeze lightweight 310mm floating discs for exceptional stopping power.

LED Position Light

Uniquely styled, the LED Position Light is a compelling design feature that shows everyone that this is not any ordinary motorcycle. It's a Honda.

All Digital Instrumentation

CB1000R's high-tech, all-digital instrument display features tachometer, plus LCD readouts for speedometer, coolant temperature, odometer, two tripmeters and a clock, mpg and average fuel consumption.

Fully Adjustable 43mm Inverted Fork

A bike as powerful as the new CB1000R needs top-notch suspension components. That's why we gave it a stout, large-diameter 43mm inverted fork that's fully adjustable. And it's also one of the reasons why the CB1000R handles so well.

Adjustable Brake and Clutch Levers

CB1000R's adjustable brake and clutch levers let you fine tune for the riding environment, and tailor fit the controls to your riding style.

Standard Features

Superbike Power

The new CB1000R is built around a superbike-strong 998cc DOHC inline four engine. Basically, we took a CBR1000RR powerplant and retuned it to deliver a bare-knuckle blast of power that's perfect for street riding, with plenty of torque and power on tap. Since it's a four cylinder, it's plenty smooth for longer rides too.

When You've Got It, Flaunt It

The new CB1000R has nothing to hide. On the contrary, it'd be a shame to cover up that awesome engine, so we've put it out front and center so you and everyone else can enjoy it. Then our designers gave the CB1000R just enough styling touches (side radiator shrouds, fork-mounted cowl fairing, cast aluminum four-spoke wheels) to really set it apart. Check out the result for yourself. European Model Shown.

Easy to Handle

The CB1000R offers exceptional handling, thanks to a Gravity Die Cast mono-backbone aluminum chassis that's light and strong, a fully-adjustable inverted fork, and adjustable Pro Link® rear suspension with a single-sided swing arm.

Engine and Drivetrain

Compact and lightweight 998cc liquid-cooled inline-four engine with Honda's PGM-FI electronic fuel injection is tuned for dynamic low-to-midrange performance, with a smoothly linear climb up through the powerband to a thrilling top-end rush.
The engine's enhanced low-end torque allows you to pull away from a stop at less than 2,000 rpm without fear of engine stalling.
An impressive power-to-weight ratio gives the CB1000R Superbike-like performance in a user-friendly package.
Magnesium cylinder-head and alternator covers reduce engine weight.
The PGM-FI system incorporates an Idle Air Control Valve (IACV) to smooth responses to small changes in throttle position.
A hydraulically operated clutch ensures smooth clutch operation with an easy pull at the lever.
Low-slung stainless-steel exhaust system produces an exhilarating sound, while also being a key element in the CB1000RA's optimized mass centralization. By concentrating most of its mass directly under the engine, the system promotes quicker steering response and enhanced cornering clearance.

Chassis and Suspension

Angular "mass forward" design positions the rider forward for a sporty yet comfortable ride.Advanced gravity-die-cast aluminum mono-backbone frame contributes to the CB1000RA's agile, sporty handling and highway stability.Wide 17-inch wheels feature an eye-catching swept four-spoke design and carry supersport-class radial tires.The fully adjustable 43 mm inverted front fork and cast-aluminum Pro-Arm swingarm with two-way adjustable HMAS (Honda Multi-Action System) shock are adjustable allowing you to set to your riding preference.Lightweight 310 mm floating front rotors with radial-mount triple-piston calipers combine with a 256 mm dual-piston caliper rear brake to create a powerful stopping force.Combined Braking System with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) gives you extra peace of mind in all braking situations.The CB1000R looks and feels more like a midsize sportbike, thanks to its compact dimensions and easy reach to both the ground and its controls. Its ergonomics locate the rider closer to the steering head for a riding position that shifts the balance of weight slightly forward onto the front tire, achieving a greater feeling of crisply responsive control.Thick aluminum handlebar adds to the CB1000R's aggressive naked-bike look.Additional

Additional Features

Unique front light array features a triangular multi-reflector headlight integrated into a compact cowl, and a seven-bulb LED position light.Fully digital instrument panel provides three large LCD readouts.
The tachometer features an instant multi-segment readout of engine speed, displayed in a wide, sweeping bar that extends across the top of the display.The short, slim seat and sleek, upswept tail cowl take their design cues from the CBR1000RRA and Honda's RC212V MotoGP race bike. The seat is roomy and tapers towards the front, integrating smoothly with the side covers for a compact profile and a comfortable riding position.The tail cowl is supported by a strong and rigid cast aluminum rail. It provides ample room for a passenger and integrates a distinctive LED taillight.
