Competition has produced the new CBR1000RR-R Fireblade. Honda didn’t just start from scratch. Honda used the ultimate expression of everything they know about two-wheeled speed, the RC213V MotoGP machine and its road-going RC213V-S sibling, as technological base points. The CBR1000RR-R Fireblade’s all-new engine–while still an inline four-cylinder–has much in common with the race bikes.
Improved
forks and braking systems. 17inch wheels for amazing on the track grip.

Front Forks The NPX front fork uses a pressurised damping system to minimise cavitation, resulting in more stable damping control and improved bump absorption at high speeds.
Honda Electronic Steering Damper Minimises sudden steering changes at high speeds for enhanced riding ease and comfort.
Radial Mount Caliper Offers better alignment to the disc and rigidity. Radial-mount calipers are secured and supported at both ends providing less caliper flex and better braking performance.
999.9cc of
pure racing engine. Designed and tuned for the track.

RC213V-S-inspired swing arm design The aluminium swingarm – based on the designed used by the RC213V-S – is 30.5mm longer at 622.7mm, but weighs exactly the same as the previous design. Its horizontal rigidity is reduced by 15%, with vertical rigidity maintained to generate incredible rear tyre grip.
Honda Selectable Torque Control If the Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) system senses an imminent loss of rear-wheel traction it reduces torque to allow the tyre to grip.
Programmed Fuel Injection Map-type computerised system maintains strong power and responsive performance in all conditions.
Start ModeLimits engine rpm based on rider preference, even with a wide-open throttle, letting the rider focus on clutch release (and lights) alone.
The performance Output is stunning: 214.6bhp @ 14,500rpm peak power, with peak torque of 113Nm delivered @ 12,500rpm.

Brembo Stylema Front Brake Calipers Incredible braking power is provided by the latest Brembo Stylema monobloc four-piston radial-mount front brake callipers – with Brembo brake lever and master cylinder to match. The calipers maintain rigidity but are 7% lighter, with less internal fluid volume for more immediate reaction.
Radial Mount Calliper Offers better alignment to the disc and rigidity. Radial-mount calipers are secured and supported at both ends providing less caliper flex and better braking performance.
An amazing
range of technologies to enable to ride to the best of your capability and get
you there as safely as possible.

Second-Generation semi-active Öhlins Electronic Control The Öhlins NPX fork uses a pressurised damping system to minimise cavitation, resulting in more stable damping control and improved bump absorption at high speeds. Feel for front tyre grip is also enhanced. The rear shock is also by Öhlins; the upper mount attaches at the back of the engine to enhance high-speed handling.
Launch Control for fast starts The CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP is equipped with Launch Control for race starts. It limits engine rpm at 6,000, 7,000, 8,000 and 9,000rpm set-points, even with a wide-open throttle, letting you focus on clutch release (and lights) alone. A quickshifter is also fitted as standard, with performance optimised for racetrack performance and reliability.
Switchable ABS modes For flexible ability (and along with Rear Lift Control) the ABS gain two switchable modes; SPORTS mode focuses on road-riding performance, with high brake force and less pitching, while TRACK mode offers the power and feel braking from much higher circuit speeds. Both are controlled with input from the six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU).
Wheelie Control The IMU measures the pitch angle and, combined with front and rear wheel speed, manages the amount of height the front wheel gathers relative to the level of intervention selected. Level 1 is minimum Wheelie Control, level 2 medium, and level 3 maximum. Wheelie Control can also be switched off completely.
