Honda CB1000R: The complete test Forget the Hornet, the new bogeyman is called Honda CB1000R. The arrival of a new generation of motorcycle is still the source of questions and fears for the builder, testers and potential customers. The bike kept Does the spirit of the model it replaces? Is it up to the challenge and noted the competition? The sun will happen to the party to discover it? Relatively erased on the market for wholesale roadsters, Honda had to replace a 900 Hornet, which has never really managed to seduce the European bikers. Unveiled at the Fair of Milan, the CB1000R is Honda's answer to Z 1000, FZ1, Speed Triple 1050 or 990 Super Duke. Style aggressive, new technical solutions for a Japanese manufacturer: a breakaway office of Italian style, the CB1000R roadster is a resolutely studied for Europe. Angles lively, taut lines, polygonal shapes, while directing our gaze forward, giving the bike a muscular not deny that a roadster Europe. In addition to his work look very, Honda puts forward an engine - derived from the CBR1000RR Fireblade 2007 - a ball of technology to the very affirmed to stand out from competition. It was in Italy that we were able to try it out between two showers. For the sun, the appointment is missed. But what about the motorcycle? A compact roadster and collected If the CB1000R obviously following the CB900F is a completely new bike that Honda introduced at the Milan Fair. Like its predecessor, it uses the engine of CBR1000RR Fireblade 2007 and borrows the casing, the exhaust and the fork in the Fireblade at the time. For the rest, everything is new, beginning with what will undoubtedly be the visual signature of this bike: its single-and its rim back to 4 branches. Honda was the first Japanese manufacturer to offer a roadster equipped with a single-, reminding the Ducati Monster and other Triumph Speed Triple, excuse little. For its part, the appearance of this compact CB1000R confirms once in the saddle. Of course, the saddle 1 of 4 12/04/2008 23:38 Honda CB1000R: Hunting is open! -- Moto Station http://209.85.135.104/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=fr%7Cen&u=http:/... is still quite high (828 mm), but his drawing very close to the front does not prevent me to pose a sole on the "top" of my 1.68 m. A good point in the city when to hold the motorcycle fire. And lights, our starting point would fail. It was in Milan that the movement will be the first kilometres, which makes it possible to quickly judge handling in urban areas. Shortly rolled onto the front, with the legs folded reasonably, it has made its way in the traffic naturally enjoying a reasonable turning radius (see "Remember"). Although easily adjustable mirrors the image refer more elbows than the road to be useful, less than straighten your arm from the torso ... The fault in a rod too short because the mirror is large enough and vibration very low. Lowering his head, eyes arose immediately on the new all-digital meter block and may not missed the tachometer. Placed in a horizontal, it is not unlike that fitted the VTR 1000 SP and is very readable. On the lower left side, the speed is displayed in large letters but it takes your eyes off the road a few seconds, damage. As on the Fireblade, no indicator is present report urged, but the CB1000R would gladly pass. An engine bursting with character Very flexible, four-cylinder leaves under 2000 rpm and can not over-stretching the gearbox. Quick and which locks well, the latter is a bit noisy, a defect that should disappear once the burn is completed, our test model totalling barely 700 km. Contrary to the CBR1000RR, the clutch is hydraulic and is flexible as long as we do not want too the point of skating. Once out of the city, just slightly turn the right handle to awaken the beast. Featuring now a power of 125 horsepower (compared to 172 horses in the Fireblade 2007), the engine is not provided assagi. Discreet and civilized low level, he wakes up as soon as the bargraph of revolution reaches 5000 rpm. It becomes aware of the work done by Honda to offer its thoughts on this bike as a "Street Fighter radical." Without violence of a twin, 4-cylinder Honda propels the CB1000R with a power that does not steam and is not unlike what happens in the UK, no more, no less! Only the ignition cut to 11000 rpm speaker quickly enough on the initial reports may be surprised. But over the last two reports, very few will tickle the 10500 rpm the red zone, or on a portion of a highway for which the CB1000R was not designed, the power meter struggling to deflect the air beyond the 120 km / h. Certainly, the machine promises to significantly raise the level of its predecessor, speaking with a lot of talent in the revivals on the narrow roads near Lake Como, thanks to its hot engine, but also his astonishing cycle parts. An agile 600 cm3 with the rigour of a sport "Viroleuses" desire, small roads of our test are certainly among the favorites playgrounds of this CB1000R. Printing template 600 cm3 felt in the city was confirmed when to put the bike into curves. Despite a relatively narrow handlebars, just a slight push on one of its branches for the CB1000R plunges and locks on the desired path, immediately putting confidence, whatever the speed. Empruntée the CBR1000RR 2008, the fork is a model of rigor curve: CB1000R does not move and can even track corrections if the turn closes. Consideration of the sports legacy of suspensions, amortization of spikes is almost non-existent, leaving little bad on the pilot coating. Fortunately, the possibilities for setting of the shock and fork let everyone the choice to adapt it to his conduct. Reassuring curve, the CB1000R is also braking. The radial calipers before biting two drives of 310 mm diameter offer power and progressiveness it seems difficult to find fault. The rear brake hand lack of progressivity. If the large 256 mm disc with a two-piston caliper is powerful, it is perhaps a little too given the sometimes caused blockages. Note, however, that Honda will 2 of 4 12/04/2008 23:38 Honda CB1000R: Hunting is open! -- Moto Station http://209.85.135.104/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=fr%7Cen&u=http:/... propose in August to an ABS braking coupled-Dual its CB1000R CBS, the latter bartering radial calipers 4-piston calipers against three conventional pistons. The classic swing arm was preferred by the single-Honda models on its athletes for its superior efficacy in extreme use (many remember the mythical RC45), and was used only on the VFR. The CB1000R marks the return of single-aluminum, and we could not put it into default, even if the quality of Italian secondary roads and the weather did not allow us to push the body to its limits. CB1000R: fun to replace the raw power Even on roads where the blind turns encourage caution, the CB1000R does not put on performances for raw promise dynamic behavior of high-flying.
