THE HONDA CB1000R HAS BUILT ITS REPUTATION ON POWERFUL, UNDERSTATED PERFORMANCE COMBINED WITH CUTTING-EDGE NEO-SPORTS CAFÉ STYLING. AND FOR 2021 WE’VE DONE IT ONE BETTER: INTRODUCING THE CB1000R BLACK EDITION. THE BLACKOUT LOOK IS APPARENT AT A GLANCE, BUT THE CLOSER YOU LOOK, THE MORE ATTENTION TO DETAIL YOU’LL SEE. THIS ISN’T JUST A BIKE WITH A BLACK TANK: VIRTUALLY EVERY ELEMENT GETS THE TREATMENT—THE FORK, SUBFRAME, RADIATOR SHROUDS, AIRBOX COVERS, FRONT FENDER MOUNTS, WHEELS, AND MORE. BUT THERE ARE SOME TASTY MACHINED HIGHLIGHTS TOO—LIKE THE TOUCHES YOU’LL SEE ON THE HANDLEBAR CLAMP, SWINGARM PIVOT PLATES, AND WHEEL SPOKES, ALL OF WHICH GIVE THE BLACK EDITION A HAND-CRAFTED, CUSTOM LOOK. OTHER UPGRADES INCLUDE A NEW DIGITAL INSTRUMENT DISPLAY, SEAT COWL, UNDER-SEAT USB PORT, AND A NEW QUICK SHIFTER TOO. SO COME OVER TO THE DARK SIDE—ON A CB1000R BLACK EDITION.
