Aggressive, edgy, yet perfectly composed. The CB1000R’s predatory profile surfs the cut and thrust of city streets with unbelievable cool; and tears up twisty terrain for the sheer thrill of it. Smooth power delivery as well as on-tap thrills when you feel like calling upon them. Now there’s a class for big, sports bike-derived machines known as the super naked. Ducati Monster S4R, KTM 990 Super Duke, MV Agusta Brutale 989R, Suzuki B-King, Kawasaki Z1000, Triumph Speed Triple, Yamaha FZ1, BMW K1200R are some of the top monster super naked which gained spot in the market.
