Positioned in Honda's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2013 Honda CB1000R ABS utilizes a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 75.0 x 56.5 mm (3.0 x 2.2 inches) with a 11.2:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the CB1000R ABS measures 217 kg (478 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 825 mm (32.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,445 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17.03-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.36 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 268 km (167 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 229 km/h (142 mph).
