Honda CB1000R Launch Report
September 25, 2008
Again, this was part of the brief series of advertorials pushing the launch of the Honda CB1000R.
The awesome CB1000R was finally unleashed last Friday – and Lings customer Paul Rayner was the first to collect his from Lings Lowestoft.
Mr Rayner, a local Lowestoft resident, has been a loyal Lings customer for over 15 years, returning time and time again to get the great service and satisfaction you find only at Lings, whether it be for a bike part, a service, or just for a coffee and a chat. Friday night was a particularly special visit though, as he rode away on his brand new bike - the awe-inspiring Honda CB1000R.
Jeff Wilks, Motorcycle Sales Controller at Lings Honda Lowestoft, said ‘Mr. Rayner has always been an excellent customer and we weren’t too surprised he was the first here to collect his bike! It’s such a fantastic motorcycle, really eye-catching and so good to ride. It’s a great choice by Mr. Rayner and all of us at Lings Honda wish him well with his new bike.”
The Honda CB1000R combines stunning, aggressive looks with superb performance to create an ultra-smooth riding experience that can’t help but turn heads. It is a motorcycle tuned for precision control, with a powerful Fireblade-derived engine delivering superb midrange performance.
The crisp, aggressive lines, the rawness of the extreme, naked styling – the CBR1000R is a bike to turn heads. The distinctive triangular headlight with integrated LED position lamp screams menace on the outside while the stylish 3-section, blue backlit LCD panel feeds essential information to you from the inside. Even the striking, 4-spoke ’swept’ design on the wheels can’t help but hold your gaze. The short tail section emphasises the illusion of the rider being positioned over the engine, adding to the muscular looks and confident impression the CBR1000R exudes. The panther-like slim line chassis just makes you want to get on and ride, and the single-sided swingarm just oozes class.
The CB1000R is a truly breathtaking package for the price – available at just £7,099.00 on the road from Lings Honda.
