2024 Honda CB1000R Black Edition

The CB1000R Black Version isn’t just a sportbike sans bodywork – it’s a sophisticated reimagining of a stripped-down machine, marrying neo-retro design cues to a sleek, all-black aesthetic.

At the very core of this machine lies a potent 998cc liquid-cooled inline-four engine, meticulously calibrated to deliver peak torque within a sweet spot of 6,000 to 8,000 rpm. The 44-millimeter throttle valves in the PGM-FI system are controlled by throttle-by-wire technology, enabling four ride modes: Rain, Standard, Sport, and a customizable Rider mode. The various digital options include a trio of engine power levels, intelligent engine braking, and Honda’s advanced torque control system.

The motorcycle’s chassis features a robust metal spine and a distinctive single-sided swingarm design. A highly customizable Showa Separate Function Fork (SFF)-BP, in tandem with a shock from the same manufacturer, featuring preload and rebound damping capabilities to manage suspension duties effectively. A pair of radial-mount, four-piston Tokico brake calipers and 310mm discs, accompanied by standard ABS, comprise the well-appointed braking system.

The CBR1000RR Black Version, a singular offering available for $12,999.
