The stunning CB1000R packs exhilarating litre-class Super Sports performance into a compact and muscular-looking form that looks fast even standing still. It delivers breathtaking acceleration, light, responsive handling and invigorating thrills at every twist of its throttle. This is combined with smooth, easy control and nimble handling that's just as enjoyable along winding roads as it is on city streets.
Last year the CB1000R was refreshed and updated with a new thicker aluminium handlebar and a new LED position light. In 2012 a brand new Mat Cynos Gray Metallic colour version further enhances its image as one of the most exciting and well designed Performance Naked machines on the road.

- Thicker aluminium handlebar improves look and feel.
- Unique front light array features a triangular multi-reflector headlight integrated into a compact bikini cowl, and a 7-bulb LED position light.
- Compact, lightweight 998cc liquid-cooled fuel-injected inline-4 engine is tuned for dynamic low-to midrange performance.
- Magnesium cylinder head and ACG covers reduce engine weight.
- Angular, 'mass forward' design is emphasised by a short compact tail and positions rider forward for a sporty ride.
- Advanced gravity die-cast aluminium Mono-Backbone frame contributes to agile, sporty handling.
- Semi-underslung stainless steel exhaust system lowers centre of gravity and adds to light, responsive handling as well as delivering an exhilarating sound.
- Attractive 17" wheels feature eye-catching swept 4-spoke design.
- Swift-handling, fully adjustable 43mm inverted front fork and cast aluminium Monoshock Pro-Arm swingarm contribute to precise control.

- Lightweight 310mm floating front disc brakes with radial-mount 4-piston calipers and 256mm dual-piston caliper rear disc brake create a powerful stopping force.
Styling
The CB1000R has a compact and dynamic form with a distinctive 'mass-forward' orientation that projects a 'ready to pounce' image. Its frontal design is characterised by a compact bikini cowl surrounding a brilliant three-corner shaped multi-reflector headlight. Underneath, a distinctive LED position lamp gives it an unmistakable presence on the road. For 2011 this has been updated from a 5-bulb to a 7-bulb layout. Behind the cowl a high-tech, fully digital meter panel provides three large LCD readouts of all operating information. 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 tail cowl take obvious design cues from the CBR1000RR Fireblade and the powerful RC212V MotoGP racer. The seat is roomy and tapers towards the front, integrating smoothly with the side covers for a compact profile and comfortable riding position. The sleek, upswept tail cowl, supported by a strong and rigid cast aluminium rail, provides room for a passenger and integrates an attention-getting LED tail-light.
Engine
The CB1000R features a compact 998cm3 liquid-cooled fuel-injected inline-four engine originally derived from the World Superbike Championship-winning 2007 CBR1000RR Fireblade. It is tuned to deliver sharp acceleration and full-bodied torque from the lower reaches of its rev range as well as breathtaking and smoothly linear power further up the powerband. Features such as an IACV (intake air control valve) keep excessive torque reaction and jerky low-speed performance to a minimum, ensuring smooth, enjoyable operation. The light-action hydraulic clutch takes full advantage of the engine's strong low-end torque and can be engaged at engine speeds of less than 2,000rpm without fear of engine stalling. The combination of optimised power-to-weight ratio and a wide powerband means that the CB1000R is capable of dynamic and satisfying thrusts of acceleration from anywhere in its powerband.
Chassis
The CB1000R is built on a Mono-Backbone gravity die-cast (GDC) aluminium frame that holds the engine as a stressed member in a rigid diamond configuration. Strong, rigid and lightweight it adds to the motorcycle's sharp, smooth handling and instant response to changes of direction. The overall design places a strong emphasis on optimal mass centralisation. Heavier components, notably the engine, main frame sections and exhaust system, are positioned as close as possible to the machine's rolling centre of mass while those sections located farther away from its centre are designed to be as lightweight as possible.
Colours
For 2012, the CB1000R comes in three colour versions that emphasise its mix of cool urban style and powerful performance. These include a stunning new Mat Cynos Gray Metallic version.
- Mat Cynos Gray Metallic New!
- Pearl Cool White
- Tricolour
