Review
The 2021 Honda CB1000R 5 Four is a special edition of the standard CB1000R, retaining the core performance and handling characteristics while adding unique styling elements. Like the standard model, it features a 998cc inline-four engine producing 104.0 Nm of torque at 8250 RPM, ensuring strong acceleration and responsive power delivery. The smooth and refined engine character makes it suitable for a variety of riding conditions, from urban commuting to weekend canyon carving. The six-speed gearbox provides smooth and precise shifts. The ergonomics of the CB1000R 5 Four are similar to the standard model, with an 830mm seat height and an upright riding position that offers a good balance of comfort and control. This makes it accessible to a wide range of riders. The 16.3-liter fuel tank provides a reasonable range for longer journeys. The front suspension consists of a 43mm inverted telescopic fork, offering a compliant and controlled ride. The CB1000R 5 Four is aimed at riders who appreciate the performance and handling of the standard CB1000R but desire a more exclusive and visually striking motorcycle. The radially mounted four-piston calipers biting on double floating discs ensure powerful and consistent braking performance. It's an excellent choice for those who want a naked bike that stands out from the crowd.
