Performance

A punchy, four-cylinder 998cc engine – with forged high-compression pistons, like the CB1000R ­– hangs on an all-new chassis; a strong steel mono backbone type with a single-sided swingarm. Peak power is 144 HP @ 10.500rpm and, combined with 104Nm @ 8,250rpm of torque, you get a generous rush of acceleration when you need it. It’s an exciting mix of strong performance and controllable power all the way through the rev range.
