Forget the dinosaur CB1000 of the early nineties, or the now defunct 900 Hornet, the CB1000R is a whole new bag for Honda, designed with Europe, using a retuned version of the 2007 FireBlade engine and with 2008 FireBlade forks and brakes, just a beautiful face and tilt fabbo style.
Engine:
The Honda CB1000R used a 2007 FireBlade has become of most torque and midrange. This is similar to the CBF1000 engine, but it gives better recital. As such, 130bhp is a lot but it's more about torque and how that power is delivered that impresses.
Equipment:
The Honda CB1000R is a bit higher quality of play in all aspects. The forks are taken from the 2008 FireBlade characteristic but different internals. The brakes were taken from the leaf of 2008, but use smaller 310mm discs, master cylinder and brake lines.
