2009 Honda CB1300S

Introduction

Pulse-racing performance. Immediate involvement. Sheer sensation. Projecting bold attitude and delivering an awe-inspiring rush of raw excitement, the CB1300S ABS responds to throttle input with a blast of performance, followed up by rip-roaring acceleration and smooth, addictive power delivery. The aerodynamic fairing screams of speed and comfortably slices through the wind, leaving no doubt as to the bike’s intentions (and concealing some handy storage space). The combination of big-bike performance and style, with light, effortless handling and comfortable seating is brilliantly executed. The accommodating seat height and slimline sidecovers combine to offer a straight and easy reach to the ground. Solid stopping power comes from high-performing four-piston front disc brakes; ABS is standard, ensuring supreme braking confidence and control. The CB1300S’ ABS superb styling alone is enough to set your heart racing, with flawless bodywork, an imposingly stark, black engine, bare aluminium, shining chrome details and high-tech, blue backlit instrument panel. But the real thrills come when you climb aboard and get back to the basics of pure naked motorcycling fun. Refreshingly simple and disturbingly addictive, the CB1300S ABS is a breathtaking embodiment of naked Honda attitude.
