  • Welcome back to the channel to watch another bike review and this review is a bike and a half! It's the 2022 Honda CB1000R Full Review "Black Edition".
    I first rode the Honda CB1000R way back in 2018, and I was instantly impressed by its looks, smooth 4 cylinder engine and in fact how easy it was to ride the bike.
    This bike handles like it's on rails, power delivery is smooth and adaptable with its very clever traction control.
    I will be showing you what the bike is like in traffic, on the motorway, listening to the engine/exhaust sound, running through the dashboard and giving you all the information I can about the 2022 Honda CB1000R Full Review "Black Edition".
    The Honda CB1000R is designed for riders who desire a powerful and dynamic naked sportbike that offers exhilarating performance and a stylish presence on the road. Its combination of aggressive design, strong engine performance, and advanced features make it a popular choice for riders seeking an exciting and versatile motorcycle.

    3. Chassis and Suspension: The motorcycle utilizes a lightweight and rigid aluminum frame, offering precise handling and stability. It is equipped with a fully adjustable suspension system, usually featuring a Showa upside-down fork at the front and a Showa monoshock at the rear.

    Purchased my 2022 Black Edition last month and have put near 1000 miles in about 3 weeks. What an absolute blast! Here in South Korea it's very rare and gets all the looks, which I do enjoy. But mostly it's just an incredible machine, the workmanship is undeniable, and I am happy to finally have a forever bike. Nice review! I absolutely recommend the bike. :) -Former Ducati Monster owner

    Fantastic bike, don’t be put off by power or Fireblade heritage. It’s a doddle to to ride , riding position very natural and comfy and is so easily to live with as a daily bike. I own one and love it, it’s perfectly at home pattering around town at 15-30 mph, easy in traffic and filtering etc. it’s a super Uber smooth ride , and the quality of everything on this bike is outstanding.
    It gives you massive pride of ownership and lovey to own / look at / clean in garage - proper eye candy bike. Lots of people say certain bikes are too powerful- unless they are too snatching and jerky that’s rubbish, this throttle is silky smooth and so easy and comfy and the extra power gives you bags of torque and it’s still so smooth and comfy and stable through the range. Best bike I’ve ever owned - can’t praise it enough and I’m no racing snake - just go at my own steady pace and it does it brilliantly.

      @@Nickbaldeagle02 Hi Nick. Terrific. Still running it in at the mo but it’s everything I hoped it would be. Comfortable, light, direct, quick, feels ‘quality’. Very confidence inspiring. It’s very Honda, it all just works. Like Blackbirds, VFR’s, CBR’s to name a few. I don’t subscribe to this boring Honda thing sometimes thrown about. I removed the long hero blobs (no track days so never going to use them) and getting the side stand down is now a breeze. Sounds very nice too, nice tone and growl from the air box. I invested in an Abba stand which works a treat BTW. I fitted an Evotech rad guard (highly recommended) and scottoiler but that’s it. Not changing anything else on it. Hope this helps.

    My way of appreciating bikes with high power or more importantly those bikes that beg to be ridden fast has changed in over 50 years of riding. Maybe its sound, acceleration, certain power trigger rpms that brings this out in certain riders.
    Admittedly I am one of those riders when I was sixteen and at almost 69 I feel the same way. What I remember at 16 and now those bikes help make me more dangerous to myself and others so the risk are higher.
    Now I ride bikes which can be ridden fast but can be enjoyed riding at or below speed limits. I rolled the dice a lot for many years but now I would say 95% of those need for speed is done on the trackand of those 5% I keep the spurts short and in clear areas.

      @@exeterrider I haven't ridden a bike in 20+ years. Used to ride a Yammy FZ750. Only recently re discovered biking after a friend of mine bought a Bee Em R1250. I didn't realise Bee Em made such good bikes, now I'm researching every bike video I can find to get my knowledge back and possibly restart my biking. I fancy this Honda. I fancy a Suzuki Hayabusa too... 🤔 Decisions to be made.

      @@Nickbaldeagle02 Brill mate, lovely to get back into it isn't it. Let me know how you get on. You don't need advice but I would say being out of it for so long, you may find your tastes has changed from what it used to be so try all sorts of different demo bikes even if you don't think its your thing. Sometimes all those big bikes like the Busa can get a bit heavy. Cheers

      @@Nickbaldeagle02 I’ve had two Hayabusa’s (Gen 1&2), great bikes but very different to the CB1000R Nick. Much heavier for a start (like +50kg), very quick but not really the kings of speed they once were. Things have moved on. Depends on what you want. Bikes nowadays are way better than they were years ago so you can’t really go that wrong.

      That's pretty much my take on it. Good post job 👍

    The only exception I take with the Honda is the badges on both sides of the tank. I just don't like how much they stick out. Otherwise a great bike!

      U Heard wrong from lazy and/or overweight TH-camrs. The suspension can easily be adjusted to your weight and riding style. It’s excellent as a road bike at normal speeds. If you ride like a dick or go on a track and really push it then no doubt limits would be reached/ exceeded but you could say that about most stock bikes.

    No doubt it's a great bike, I just cannot subscribe to this love for bikes to have a short chopped off backside, I don't like the look of them at all.

    What are the zigzagging white lines in the center of the road all about? Your mike makes "City riding" sound like "sissy riding" 😂😂
