5d80d7912b Traction and wheelie control is also absent but again since this bike is so easy to control we don’t consider it a deal breaker. At the drag strip the 448-pound CBR fared well in the quarter-mile and 0-60 times too, despite have horsepower fugures near the bottom of the pack.Blasting down our real world piece of pavement the Honda flew through the trap with a time of 10.98 seconds at 141.0 mph The 2012 Honda CBR1000RR transmission is precise, the clutch has a positive feel and its geared perfect for the street. Skip to main content . But, we can still bitch about one thing still absent in the Honda’s bag of tricks: Notraction control, but Big Redis so confident with the new suspension and ECU setting that it feels the CBR doesn’t need an electronic babysitter to be competitive. 232.98km/h (144.77mph)[24] Top speed 285286km/h (177178mph)[1][22] 283285km/h (176177mph)[1][23] 286km/h (178mph)[1] 280km/h (174mph)[24] Braking 60 to 0mph (97 to 0km/h) 35m (114ft)[1] 36m (117ft)[1] 37m (122ft)[1] 37m (123ft)[24] Fuel economy 6.4L/100km; 44mpg-imp (37mpg-US)[22] 7.8L/100km; 36mpg-imp (30mpg-US)[23] 6.11L/100km; 46.2mpg-imp (38.5mpg-US)[1] 6.2L/100km; 46mpg-imp (38mpg-US)[24] . The Honda Electronic Steering Damper was revised as well. See also[edit]. New intake and exhaust porting (higher flow, reduced chamber volume) Higher compression ratio (from 11.9:1 to 12.2:1) Revised cam timing More intake valve lift (from 8.9mm to 9.1mm) Double springs for the intake valves Higher redline (from 11,650rpm to 12,200rpm) Larger rear sprocket (from 41 to 42 teeth) New exhaust system New chassis geometry Larger 320mm (13in) front brake discs but thinner at 4.5mm (0.18in) Revised front suspension Revised rear suspension with new linkage ratios New lighter swingarm Revised front fairing design . Racing roots[edit].
Born from road racing, Big Red and technical partner, Showa, have engineered a design that all-but eliminates that tiny, almost miniscule-feeling “dead zone” between compression (downward) and rebound (upward/return) strokes. Stay in the throttle though and you’ll be surprised by just how much mid-range it cranks out. Up front a pair of 43mm Big Piston Forks (BPF) keep the front in contact with the pavement with a confident but slightly muted feel. "CBR1000" redirects here. Aggressive riding doesnt faze the new CBR though, which is one of the most composed, compliant bikes weve ridden in some time. In order to improve stability under deceleration, a slipper clutch was added, with a center-cam-assist mechanism. We rarely ever use the foot brake (except for manual wheelie control) so we couldn’t tell the difference. Evolution Over Revolution Honda last overhauled the CBR1000RR back in 08, giving it a new frame, reworked engine, slipper clutch and more.
