Honda CB1000R Parts & Accessories

The Honda CB1000R is a premium neo-sports café naked powered by a liquid-cooled 998cc DOHC inline-four engine, designed to translate superbike performance into a minimalist street machine with a round headlight and clean bodywork influenced by the original CB750 Four. Honda built the CB1000R on a platform refined across multiple generations, each improving suspension specification and electronics while retaining the accessible torque delivery that makes the 998cc inline-four rewarding on the street. Whether the goal is exhaust upgrades, suspension tuning, or ECU programming, the CB1000R rewards performance-focused modifications with clear results at every stage. Owners working on these machines will find a well-developed aftermarket covering every aspect of the build.

Popular Upgrades

Akrapovic, SC-Project, and Yoshimura produce titanium and carbon slip-on and full exhaust systems for the CB1000R platform that improve sound character and reduce exhaust weight significantly. Ohlins and Showa aftermarket suspension components deliver improved track-day handling beyond the capability of the stock specification. Brembo and Galfer brake pads and stainless braided lines improve modulation and stopping power on the radial-mount front calipers. K&N replacement air filters and Dynojet Power Commander V fuel tuners round out the most common upgrade combination for street and track use.

Performance and Handling

The CB1000R uses Showa Separate Function Big Piston front forks and a Pro-Link rear shock that respond well to damping adjustment and spring rate upgrades for rider weight. Full exhaust systems from Akrapovic reduce total exhaust weight by up to 6 kilograms, improving power-to-weight ratio and exhaust note simultaneously. A Power Commander V or dealer ECU tune corrects fueling for any full exhaust or intake modification on this fuel-injected platform.

What exhaust fits a Honda CB1000R?

The CB1000R uses a four-into-one header with a high-mount right-side canister, and Akrapovic, SC-Project, and Arrow all produce slip-on and full exhaust systems. The Akrapovic Evolution titanium full system is the most popular choice, reducing exhaust weight by up to 6 kilograms. A Power Commander or Honda ECU tune is recommended with any full system to optimize fueling across the 998cc engine's wide powerband.

How do you adjust the suspension on a Honda CB1000R?

The CB1000R uses 43mm Showa Separate Function Big Piston front forks with compression and rebound adjusters at the base of each slider, and a Pro-Link rear monoshock with preload, compression, and rebound adjustment. Front compression should be set softer for street use and progressively firmer for track sessions. Rear preload adjustment is made at the spring collar using the supplied Honda C-spanner, with baseline settings published in the owner's manual for rider weight ranges.
