2014 Honda CB Twister Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Honda for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2014 Honda CB Twister relies on a 109 cc (6.7 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 9 HP (6.6 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9 Nm (6.6 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 82.6 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,000 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the CB Twister measures 122 kg (269 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.56 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,262 mm (49.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
