Honda CBR1000RR

There’s nothing like a literbike when it comes to awesome performance. But for 2008, Honda’s taking that level of performance—and handling—to a whole new level. New engine. New chassis. MotoGP-style exhaust. The all-new CBR1000RR is a Superbike that handles like a 600, but is built to dominate the Superbike class.
