    The 2021 Honda CBR1000RR Puts Control First​


    Contents


    The 2021 CBR1000RR by Honda Motorcycles is making a debut in the US for 2021 as far as North America is concerned and will not be sold in Canada. The 2021 Honda lineup considers the CBR1000RR as an alternative option for those who can not get their hands on a 2021 CBR1000RR-R Fireblade. It offers to be a cost-effective solution for riders still looking to stay in the 1000cc class of Japanese motorcycles without breaking the bank.

    In general, the holy grail for the best sportbike riders has always been a four-cylinder literbike. These have proved to be the most precise and powerful machines that demand respect as they are at the top of the food chain in the supersport world.

    Honda has included Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) which measures front and rear wheel speeds along with body roll angle to maximize performance no matter the conditions. Wheelie control is also standard on the CBR1000RR and ABS model, as it sometimes needs to have some self-control.

    The 2021 Honda CBR1000RR starts at $16,499 USD (Non-ABS).

    On this page: we’ve curated specs, features, news, photos/videos, etc. so you can read up on the new 2021 Honda CBR1000RR in one place.

    2021 Honda CBR1000RR Features​



    PERFORMANCE
    HI-PERFORMANCE FOUR-CYLINDER ENGINE

    Featuring high-compression 13:1 pistons, the CBR1000RR revs like only a flat-plane inline-four can. It also makes ten horsepower more than our previous generation of CBR10000RR.
    DUAL-STAGE FUEL INJECTION

    The CBR1000RR features two sets of injectors per cylinder for both low- and high-rpm performance, instantaneous high-rpm response and great low-rpm metering and clean running. Refined EFI settings make the engine even more manageable, with smoother throttle response specifically at smaller throttle openings.
    Honda ELECTRIC STEERING DAMPER (HESD)

    Most steering dampers only sense handlebar-deflection speed. The Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD) is way more sophisticated. It also detects vehicle speed, and adjusts damping proportionally. That helps maintain low-speed maneuverability while providing excellent, predictable high-speed handling.
    Honda SELECTABLE TORQUE CONTROL (HSTC)

    With Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), we’ve got your back, but you’re in control. Here’s how it works: The system automatically adjusts engine power and grip to optimize torque at the rear wheel, reducing rear-wheel slip. You get your choice of five power curves, ten torque-control levels, three engine-braking levels, and now three selectable levels of wheelie control so it’s easier than ever to dial your bike in at the track.
    THROTTLE BY WIRE

    The CBR1000RR’s throttle-by-wire system works in concert with our Honda Selectable Torque Control. With the two, you get your choice of three engine power-delivery modes, plus two which you can custom program yourself.
    HANDLING
    LIGHTWEIGHT SUB-FRAME

    Almost a full pound lighter than our previous generation, the CBR1000RR sub-frame further refines our mass centralization efforts. Light is always right, and this is the lightest CBR1000RR we’ve ever produced.
    SLIMMER ERGONOMICS

    The CBR1000RR is much slimmer than previous models in the tank/seat junction area, and also in the upper cowl (more than 24mm trimmer). This improves aerodynamics, and the narrow tank makes it easier to tuck in.
    ENGINEERING
    THIN FILM TRANSFER DISPLAY

    TFT means an instrument display that’s lighter and easier to read than previous LCD designs. It’s a first for Honda, and it’s made its premiere on the CBR1000RR.
    ASSISTED SLIPPER CLUTCH

    Superbikes can deliver a great deal of back-torque through the driveline, upsetting handling—not the CBR1000RR models. Its Honda-designed assisted slipper clutch is the same type used on our MotoGP bikes. The design does away with the need for heavy clutch springs, ensuring full power transmission with smooth shifting and a light clutch pull at the lever.
    EFFICIENT RADIATOR DESIGN

    Almost an inch narrower than on our previous-generation CBR1000RR, and featuring a high-density core. Plus the radiator tucks in tighter and cools just as efficiently.
    DESIGN
    FULL LED LIGHTING PACKAGE

    Headlights, tail lights, turn signals—with the CBR1000RRs it’s all done with lightweight, efficient, cool LEDs.
