Honda CBR description
2012 HONDA CBR1000RR **NO FEES, EVER!**, EVER!**, Assisted Slipper Clutch: Superbikes can deliver a great deal of backtorque through the driveline, upsetting handling. Not the CBR1000RR. 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. Dual-Stage Fuel Injection: Two sets of injectors per cylinder for both low- and high-rpm performance. Instantaneous high-rpm response, along with great low-rpm metering and clean running. For 2012, newly refined EFI settings make the engine even more manageable, with smoother throttle response specifically at smaller throttle openings. Centrally Located Fuel Tank: The CBR1000RR's 4.7-gallon fuel tank is positioned in the center of the chassis and low in the frame. This allows for a more compact design, but even more important helps centralize the bike's mass. Increased mass centralization means the CBR is more responsive to rider input, especially when leaning the bike into a turn or standing it up at the exit. Twin-Spar Aluminum Chassis: Four-piece aluminum frame design balances strength, rigidity, and lightness. Wrapped tightly around the engine, the structure helps centralize the CBR1000RR's mass for more responsive handling--some of the best anywhere on two wheels. BPF Front Suspension: The CBR1000RR's all-new front suspension uses a Big Piston Fork (BPF). The new 43mm Showa fork is smoother and more responsive, and gives you excellent front-end feedback. Unit Pro-Link Rear Suspension: The CBR1000RR features new suspension front and rear. In the back, the Unit Pro-Link design uses a new Balance Free Rear shock that uses a double-tube design for smoother and more accurate response. Gull-Wing Swingarm: The CBR1000RR's braced aluminum "gull wing" swingarm is deliberately long. That helps deliver improved traction and gives the rider excellent chassis feedback. Honda Electronic Steering Damper New 12-Spoke Wheels: With their consistent rigidity and balance, these sharp-looking 12-spoke cast aluminum wheels work with the new fork and enhances suspension feedback to deliver real handling improvements. New Layered Fairing: There's no mistaking the new 2012 CBR1000RR, thanks to its all new Layered Fairing bodywork. Lean, mean, more aggressive from front to back, it's a real attention getter, even when it's standing still. New LCD Instruments: The CBR1000RR's new, full-screen LCD instrumentation includes lap timer, trip and fuel-consumption computer, five-level customizable shift indicator, gear-position indicator and peak-rpm memory function.

Having a Randy Mamola moment
Thu, 10 May 2012Back in 1985 Randy Mamola was captured on film performing the most miraculous save of all time, hanging on for dear life as his Honda NSR500 tried to fling him from his seat. Recently, we've seen some impromptu homages to the original with Jonathan Rea at Assen and the near-save from Jakub Kornfeil in the Moto3 race at Jerez. Now we have on-board footage of American racer Genki Hagata calming a high-side at the Infineon Raceway in California.
Front wheel hopping on a 'Blade
Wed, 25 Aug 2010In my youth I used to spend hours with my mates pulling stoppies on our mountain bikes and then proceeding to hop on the front wheel for as long as we could or replicating the tricks we'd see our trials heroes perform. But the idea of doing this on a Honda Fireblade is puzzling, but stunt rider Odair Salmazo has it cracked.
