You can’t miss the dynamic angular styling, or the gleaming gold suspension components, or the piercing quartet of projector headlights, or the blacked-out aesthetic. The Honda CB1000SP makes a bold statement just standing there, but it’s when you swing a leg over and twist the throttle that this streetfighter really opens your eyes. CBR-spec power tuned for instant acceleration grabs your attention right away, and then the agile handling and comfortable ergonomics remind you of the SP’s all-around versatility.
Streetfighter PowerIt started life as the power behind the CBR1000RR, so you know the new CB1000SP’s 999 cc four-cylinder engine delivers spirited performance right across the rev range. To give it true streetfighter character, engineers modified the pistons, altered valve timing and lift, designed a new airbox, and more — all with the aim of improving midrange power. The result? An engine with a powerful performance that’s also plenty capable of being an everyday ride in the city, and a whole lot of fun on tight, twisty backroads. |
Thrilling PerformanceWith a fully fuelled weight of just 212 kg (467 lb), the math adds up to a thrilling power-to-weight ratio. |
Variable Exhaust ValveTo further broaden the engine’s powerband, a bypass valve inside the muffler optimizes exhaust pressure based on engine revs, restricting exhaust flow below 5,700 rpm, and then opening above that point to allow the engine to breathe and exhale deeply, and rev quickly to its 11,000 rpm power peak. |
Instant AccelerationArm-stretching acceleration is one of the key attractions of a big-bore streetfighter, and the CB1000SP does acceleration like few bikes out there. One of the ways Honda engineers boosted the SP’s go-power was by altering the gear ratios in the CBR-based six-speed manual transmission, with lower ratios in the bottom gears and a tall final gear that’s ideal for highway cruising. And use the clutch for upshifts, thanks to the built-in quickshifter that eliminates the need to use the clutch for anything other than starting and stopping. It even works with the throttle-by-wire system to “blip” the throttle during downshifts. |
Slipper/Assist ClutchThe engine’s slipper/assist clutch provides two key benefits to improve performance, safety, and rider confidence. First, the “slipper” function helps to mitigate rear-wheel hopping caused by rapid engine braking while downshifting. And second, the “assist” function reduces the effort required to operate the clutch lever. Together, this technology helps to lessen fatigue while in stop-and-go traffic, while also reducing the risk of rear-tire lockup for extra rider reassurance during spirited riding. |
Adjustable Riding ModesNo two riders feel the exact same way about how their bike should perform, so the CB1000SP’s Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) lets you customize a wide array of settings to perfectly suit your riding style or the road conditions. Select between Standard, Rain, and Sport mode — or one of two user-customizable modes — to modify power delivery, engine braking, wheelie control, and traction control. |
