2012 Honda CB1000R
The CB1000R uses a 998cc inline-four engine based on a previous generation CBR1000RR, but is tuned to produce more torque and horsepower in the midrange and bottom end-the perfect combination for a machine like this. The CB1000Rs Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) ensures crisp throttle response and both low- and high-rpm performance. In addition, theres no choke to mess with, and the CB1000R runs perfectly at all altitudes and temperatures, even on cold mornings.
Gravity Die-Cast technology gives the CB1000R a chassis thats strong, but light. The single backbone architecture links the steering head to the swingarm pivot, but without any frame spars to interrupt the CB1000Rs lines. CB1000Rs 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.
