Fireblade - even better for 2012!
The 2012 Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade has a whole host of changes, particularly to the chassis, which really move the bike on. New wheels and new front and rear suspension systems have been introduced for better handling, traction and braking performance. The advanced Balance Free Rear Cushion rear suspension is a world-first for a production motorcycle.
Updated styling, including new lights, farining, tank cover and seat unit distinguish the 2012 Fireblade from the earlier '08 to '11 versions.
There's an all new instrument panel with additional functionality making the bike more user-friendly, helping riders get the most from Honda’s most exciting and advanced Super Sport machine yet: the 20th anniversary CBR1000RR Fireblade.

Styling - Dynamic styling package
A new nose, layered main fairing and a tail section bring a more aggressive and dynamic look to the 2012 CBR1000RR.
Suspension - Balance Free Rear Cushion
A first for Showa on a production motorcycle, this advanced new rear shock uses a double-tube design to ensure smoother and more accurate response, superior damping and improved traction.
Big Piston Front Fork
The 2012 CBR1000RR also features inverted 43mm telescopic forks with Showa’s Big Piston technology. With a unique design to reduce internal pressures, the Big Piston Front Fork offers improved damping, increased front tyre grip and better stability under braking.
Wheels - 12-spoke wheels
Stunning 12-spoke cast aluminium wheels provide more consistent rigidity to work with the new forks to deliver improved handling.
Instrument panel - Enhanced instrumentation LCD
Now with lap timer, gear position indicator, and tachometer with 4 modes of display.
Clutch - Assisted slipper clutch
Reduces the engine back-torque transmitted to the rear wheel when shifting down, increasing chassis stability under deceleration and on corner entry.
Second generation HESD steering damper
Essential on such a light, compact and yet powerful machine, the Honda Electronic Steering Damper delivers both high-speed stability and light, responsive low-speed steering.
Brakes - Optional Combined ABS (C-ABS)
The 2012 Fireblade can be experienced with Honda’s advanced electronically-controlled Combined Antilock Braking System (C-ABS), which offers added reassurance and powerful braking confidence in all conditions.
Engine - Revised PGM-DSFI settings
The CBR1000RR retains its hugely powerful 999cc inline-4 engine but new fuel injection settings make it even smoother and easier to use, particularly at smaller throttle opennings.
