Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade has undergone the 2017 treatment, receiving all those changes that may help it achieve a special status among other liter class motorcycles. Carrying a sharper design than all other Honda 2017 CBR models, 1000RR comes with a new front fascia with LED lights.
The motorcycle gets effective performance updates in the form of weight loss and a brand new engine. The 998cc, inline 4 engine on the CBR1000RR Fireblade is good for 193.1 BHP at 13,000 rpm and 114 Nm of torque at 11,000 rpm. The weight loss of around 14 kg further makes it better in overall acceleration and performance.
