New Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP: Key Specifications

The 2025 version of the Fireblade packs a 999cc liquid-cooled, inline four-cylinder engine that has been revised for 2025 to improve mid-range response and throttle control. It shares its bore and stroke (81.0mm x 48.5mm) with the RC213V MotoGP bike and now features a higher compression ratio, new valve timing, and lighter internals for reduced inertia and a higher redline. Other prominent highlights include Honda’s first two-motor Throttle-by-Wire system, Akrapovič titanium muffler, 6-speed gearbox, and a bi-directional quickshifter. Power and torque figures stand at 215bhp and 113Nm.
