Vehicle Overview

Kawasaki Z1000

Not listed

Honda CB1000R STD

Honda CB1000R is the flagship naked bike in the company lineup, serving the same design and comparatively lesser power than most liter class naked bikes of India. The 998cc, 4-cylinder engine on the motorcycle is good for 123.37 BHP at 10000 rpm and 99 Nm at 7750 rpm. It weighs 222 kg and claims 0-100 kmph in just 4 seconds. Honda even claims a top speed of 225 kmph for the motorcycle. It is quite heavy because it uses Honda manufactured brakes and suspension components that have now been replaced with performance parts on the flagship racer, CBR1000R. Honda CB1000R rivals Suzuki GSX-S1000 and Kawasaki Z1000.

Yamaha MT-10

Yamaha MT-10 is a liter class naked street fighter that is actually based on the architecture of the famous Yamaha R1. The best part is that it has been optimized for street oriented driving that helps the same components achieve a comfort oriented approach on the relaxed rider. It is powered by a 998cc, inline 4 engine producing 165.9 HP and 112 Nm of torque. The motorcycle weighs 212 kg and claims a top speed of electronically controlled 250 kmph. The huge 17 liter fuel tank helps it provide a great range while its competition include bikes like Suzuki GSX-S1000, Honda CB1000R and Kawasaki Z1000.
