HONDACBR1100XX Super Blackbird 2001 - 2002

　　In 2002, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the CBR1100XX Super Blackbird, a sports machine that featured a ton of race-derived technology packed on a street legal machine that offered excellent handling and massive power performance.

　　The 2002 model didn't come with any changes except for the addition of the Silver color into the US market, but in 2003 when the last CBR1100XX was released, they returned to the initial Black color scheme.

　　Some key features of the Super Blackbird included the tall windscreen that offered more wind protection, an instrument display that featured a tachometer with a redline starting at 10,800 rpm and a large LCD speedometer, and a fairing with a very sharp nose.

　　The Super Blackbird was a zero-compromise big-bore machine well suited for seasoned riders who knew how to handle a liter-class bike with some extra neve on tap. The bike was wind-tunnel tested and featured Honda's exceptional finish, but also offered excellent handling, while the race-derived engine provided plenty of power and torque for both casual and race-track fun.

　　In the horsepower department, the 2002 Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird took its muscles from a 1,137cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 164 hp with a peak at 10,000 rpm and 124 Nm (92 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,250 rpm.

　　As for braking performance, the model featured two 310 mm discs with three-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 256 mm disc with three-piston calipers on the rear wheel.
