The introduction of the CB1000GT has once again contributed another level of grand touring motorcycles in the world, developed by Honda. An ideal combination of long-range and super bike performance, this bike changes the meaning of touring in style and confidence. Having its sculptured design, sophisticated electronics and having a heart, which pumps pure Honda engineering, the CB1000GT is not just any motorcycle- it is the next step to the dream of the rider.
CB1000 has always been a matter of accessible performance and general everyday usefulness. The CB1000GT is a notch above that philosophy. This motorcycle is made with the idea of taking the sport or comfort mix that is desired by the rider and makes a change in the concept of what a grand tourer is supposed to be so quick, composed and above all, pure premium.
Sophisticated Fashion with a daring adventure business image.
There is a sense of intent with the Honda CB1000GT. All the lines and surfaces are in a balance to balance aerodynamics and attempt to provide aesthetic elegance. The front fairing which is newly designed and designed to match the GT incorporates a complete fairing arranged with a taller windscreen which offers greater protection against wind compared to riding without the windscreen.
The bike has LEDs all over it, and smooth DRLs that ensure it has its own identity even when in the distance. Honda designers have not overlooked ergonomics, either; the riding triangle is more comfortable than the CB1000R streetfighter, with broader handlebars, a comfortable seat, and slightly lower footpegs, all of which make it comfortable to ride all day.
The semi hard panniers and optional touring top box in the GT are just the right fit in the sleek tail design and the rider can carry his world where the road takes him.
Touring Grace Powerhouse Performance.
The CB1000GT is centered around the legendary Honda 998cc inline 4 engine based on the legendary Fireblade platform. Calibrated to run with easily accessible torque, instead of out-and-out racetrack aggression, it provides approximately 145 horsepower and a mid-range burst that is very strong and makes it easy to pass slower vehicles.
The CB1000GT has a 6-speed gearbox with quickshifter and slipper clutch that allows one to enjoy the experience of accelerating very fast without compromising the impeccable refinement. Power delivery is intuitive and it will never leave you out of the fact that precision can be used in harmony with power.
The chassis has also been reworked extensively and gives better rigidity and stability particularly with heavy touring. Showa suspension system (complete adjustability front and rear) in Honda is what guarantees a ride that is both soft yet firm in corners. Combined with strong radial brakes (two discs) and traction control, the CB1000GT is confident on all the miles.
Technology That Makes Each Ride Better.
The touring is more about comfort rather than the control and Honda knows that. CB1000GT is fitted with a 7-inch full color TFT, fitted with smart phone connection and integrated navigation. Calling, route, and music information can be conveniently accessed by the riders without any distraction.
Various riding modes are provided Standard, Sport, Rain, and User that provide individuals with the customized control over throttle response, traction, and engine braking. It has cruise control, heated grips and USB-C charging as standard, which adds comfort to long hauls.
And there is the Smart Key System of Honda, which allows keyless starting and panniers– even small gestures that provide a sense of higher quality to every touch.
Built for the Long Road
The CB1000GT is composed and planted on the open highway. The better aerodynamics and the expanded seat foam and wind protection makes riding the long distances less fatiguing and even the long-hour ride pleasant. The suspension takes the undulations with a lot of ease, making the rider and the pillion comfortable in different terrains.
The GT also does not hesitate on corners, which is the reason why people who like spirited riding will find it enjoyable. Its even weight distribution and responsive throttle ensure that it is agile when driven even though it still has the poise befitting a Honda.
A Grand Tourer with Soul
The Honda CB1000GT is not just a motorcycle, but a statement that even in the age of adventure bikes and supersport machines, the performance touring still exists. It has the spirit of grand touring, both emotionally attractive and mechanically excellent.
The CB1000GT is the ideal companion of riders who pursue horizons and are comfortable, love power, yet regard precision. It is not merely constructed to carry you away but made to make your every journey memorable.
Honda has not merely made a touring bike with the CB1000GT. It has created a feeling–the feeling of sophistication and strength, and each mile is a story to ride by.
