The Honda CB1100RS Offers Slick Aesthetics and Sporty Performance

Japanese automaker Honda has launched a gorgeous new retro roadster motorbike that is designed to function as a more sport-focused version of the famous CB100 collection of motorbikes. This new Honda CB1100RS motorbike comes fitted with a quadruple cylinder 1140-cc engine that offers up 89 horsepower at 7,500 revolutions per minute.

What's more, this retro roadster motorbike also benefits from a range of structural tweaks and upgrades that include new forks, improved brakes, upgraded exhaust systems and the inclusion of LED lights at both the front and rear of the motorbike.

This is a motorbike whose design language is clearly and unabashedly inspired by the great sport motorbikes of Honda's past, but it also manages to look to the future with its next-generation engine and structural technologies.
