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 Hondastayed 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.Honda CBR 1000 RR motorcycle is the best motorcycle with a powerful engine in the world, the design of Honda CBR 1000 RR has a strong character as a sportbike. This CBR 1000 RR powerhouse is about 999 cc and this superbike has liquid-cooled in-line 4-cylinder engine. Honda CBR 1000 RR is designed in compression ratio of 12.3 to 1.
This motorcycle to be the ultimate street bike, the CBR 1000RR offer an available electronically controlled Combined ABS (C-ABS) for enhanced braking power along when you are on the road at the high speed and with stiff radial front-brake caliper, This Honda CBR 1000 RR also supported with Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD).
