14. HONDA CBR 1000RR

Inspired By A Champion:

No motorcycle connects rider, machine and road like a sportbike. The immediate acceleration, the chassis that feels like an extension of your own skeleton, the power, the handling—and the bigger the sportbike, the more intense the experience.

Honda’s CBR1000RR has long been the ultimate Superbike for experienced aficionados, and the 2015 CBR1000RR is really something special. First off, we’re celebrating Honda MotoGP rider Marc Marquez’s back-to-back World Championships with some special graphics packages on the standard and SP models. Then there’s the CBR1000RR ABS version, with the most sophisticated brake package in the class. But here’s the biggest news: Track-day enthusiasts need to check out the CBR1000RR SP Repsol Edition version. With fully adjustable Öhlins front and rear suspension, Brembo front brakes and Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SC premium tires. The SP also includes a special lightweight subframe with solo seat cowl. The SP doesn’t stop there, with hand-selected engine parts for weight and balance, including pistons and connecting rods. 

The Details Make The Difference.:

The CBR1000RR is a perfect example of typical Honda industry-leading innovation. Combining tons of power, refined, responsive handling and light weight with drop-dead good looks, it’s equally at home carving your favorite canyon as it is collecting wins on World Superbike podiums. That’s the CBR1000RR—the ultimate liter-class sportbike experience.



One of the best litre-class motorcycles in the world, the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade has two decades of racing legacy behind it. It doesn't get any better than this.”
                                                                    
REVIEW:
It's high time. We need better bikes. While a majority of the population is still more or less a concentrated commuter crowd, the existence of a market for bigger, high capacity machines that justify a limited number import run cannot be ruled out. The inroads have already been made by a manufacturer that we in India least expected to take the lead - Yamaha. The tuning fork logo-wielding brand started what seems to be an inevitable revolution when it brought in the awesome, race-bred R1 and the torque monster MT01 to select showrooms across the country. That's now been followed by Suzuki when it revealed the massive Hayabusa and the Intruder to Indian audiences recently. Why then, has Honda stayed back in the shadows? With worldwide reputation at stake one wouldn't have been too much off the mark to expect Honda to have led the big bike revolution in India instead of any other. Well, better late than never.

Early 2009 will see two of the best from the Honda stables being unloaded from cargo ships and heading straight for Honda showrooms in the country. But which two models would Honda be bringing was the question. While guessing one of the models was an absolute no brainer, it's the second one that Honda has kept us guessing on. Lined up with ignition keys slotted in under a shed in the pitlane of one of the many road courses within the Twin Ring Motegi circuit in Japan were eight bikes - two CBR1000RRs, one CB1000R, one CB1000F, one CBR600RR, a goldwing, a silverwing and one DN01. Our amazingly ?well sorted' import laws meant that the CBR600RR was present only as a showpiece, we set out to evaluate which one, according to us, should be available for legal sale in India. A quick look and the first of the two choices was more than clear. In fact, it was staring at us wide-eyed straight in the face.
