" THE BIG ONE SUPER FOUR"
" THE RETRO LOOK"
The RETRO SUPERBIKE designed to appeal to those who are old enough to remember unfaired muscle bike the first time round- those who rode bikes in the `70s and who aren`t now limber enough to squeeze themselves aboard a state-of-the-art race-replica. The born-again biker is the target market for these bikes, and one of the best examples of these retro machines is the CB1000F.
Using a de-tuned engine from a Honda CBR1000F, the CB1000harks back to the days of the CB1100and the CB900. The water-cooled, double over head cam, 16-valve, in-line four cylinder engine is a far cry from the air-cooled eight-valve engines of the `70s, but it is the focal point of this superbike. Pumping out 100bhp at 8500rpmthe CB1000 has a top speed of around 140mph.
