The Honda CB1000R was a standard or naked motorcycle part of the CB series in Honda's range, manufactured from 2008 to 2016 and resumed in 2018, unveiled in 2007 at EICMA as a replacement for the CB900F Hornet.
The Honda CB1000R borrowed the styling cues from the CB600F Hornet and was powered by a de-tuned version of the engine used on the CBR1000RR model that provided 109 hp at the rear wheel.
In 2017, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer presented a new generation of the CB1000R, along with the CB125R and CB300R models. The bike used a new style called Neo Sports Cafe, which was first applied to the CB150R ExMotion and then to the CB650R, the successor of the CB650F.
For suspension, the bike packed a 43 mm inverted HMAS cartridge-type telescopic fork on the front with 110 mm of wheel travel and a gas-charged HMAS adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 130 mm of wheel travel.
In the braking department, the bike featured two 310 mm discs with three-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 256 mm disc squeezed by a two-piston caliper on the rear wheel for strong stopping power.
As for the power figures, the 2008 Honda CB1000R took its muscles from a 998 cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronic fuel injection system and delivered an output power of 123 hp at 10,000 rpm and 100 Nm (74 lb-ft) of torque at 8,000 rpm.
