We came across to this interesting article comparing a Honda CBR1000RR to a BMW S1000RR. With a similar model name, which one has a better performance?
Some may say BMW S1000RR is unbeatable; yet there is claim saying the 2008 Honda CBR 1000RR can be, close to, perfect with custom mod.
Honda CBR 1000RR was first introduced to the market in 2007. With its light curb weight, excellent chassis and motor with monster midrange, many bikers could not wait to get one and their inventory was cleared in no time.
While BMW S1000RR is proud of its top-end acceleration, being more powerful than even Kawasaki Ninja ZX14, their finished package of an ideal streetbike - package with traction control, quickshifter and ABS – is over affordable. Thus, Superbike decided to work on a project on modifying a Honda CBR 1000RR to out beat BMW S1000. The bottom line the mod budget is below $10,000.
The mod is based on a pre-owned 2008 Honda CBR 1000RR with less than 9500 miles on the road, sold at $6,500; that being said only $3,500 left for the mod. With the remaining dollars, Sportrider was able to tune the stock CBR 1000RR to weigh less yet make significant power.
