20 Years of Superbike Domination There’s big news when it comes to the 2012 Honda CBR®1000RR. The CBR1000RR is already the essential Superbike, offering a perfectly integrated combination of power, handling, and overall balance for both the street and the track. But this year we’ve taken this versatile machine and given it some major upgrades. New suspension, new bodywork, new instrumentation, new wheels — and that’s just the start. All that in addition to its famously powerful 999 cc liquid-cooled inline-four-cylinder engine and all-aluminum twin-spar chassis. The future’s looking bright indeed — at least if you’re looking at it from behind the bars of a 2012 CBR1000RR.
Better Than Ever Honda’s CBR®600RR has long been heralded as the best all-around 600-class sportbike the world has ever seen. A winner both on and off the track, it offers a perfect balance of high-revving power, precise handling, light weight, and a compact overall size. And for 2013 the best just got a whole lot better. We’ve given the CBR600RR some major updates, including new 12-spoke wheels, revised ECU settings, and a fine-tuned ram-air system to increase torque. Best of all, the CBR600RR gets a new "Big Piston" fork and retuned rear shock. And it’s all wrapped up in some sharp new bodywork.
