• Announcement also includes CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP and CBR1000RR

American Honda today announced the 2026 CB1000F, a retro-styled four-cylinder motorcycle that channels the spirit of the iconic 1979 CB750F made famous by Freddie Spencer in AMA Superbike competition. With clean lines, evocative graphics and a broad performance envelope built on the CB1000 Hornet SP platform, the CB1000F delivers the timeless appeal of an air-cooled-era standard with the capability and refinement riders expect from a modern Honda.

"The CB1000F is a tribute to one of the most iconic eras in Honda motorcycling," said Colin Miller, Manager of Experiential Marketing at American Honda. "From the silhouette to the graphics, every detail is designed to evoke the look and feel of the classic CB750F-but with the performance, comfort and reliability of a thoroughly modern machine. It's a bike that rewards the rider on every level, whether commuting through the city or chasing a great road on a Sunday morning."

Also included in today's announcement are the returning 2027 CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP and CBR1000RR, continuing Honda's commitment to high-performance supersport motorcycles.
