is CBR is developing a new V-TEC engine?
Now with the 2019 edition, the HONDA has advanced in terms of power and technology. It gets an array of new features which include Wheelie Control, Rear Lift Control, Engine Braking, Riding Mode Select System, Power Selection and a new gyroscopic ABS system. The motorcycle also comes with a fully adjustable Showa suspension setup, optional quick-shifter with downshifting assist and an electronic steering damper. The superbike comes with a color TFT display for a better rider to motorcycle communication
The motorcycle is powered by a 999cc, inline 4-cylinder motor that is tuned to deliver 186.3bhp at 13,000rpm and 114Nm at 11,000rpm. The motor comes mated to a 6-speed constant mesh gearbox. With the use of magnesium and other lightweight materials, the new CBR1000RR weighs 195kg, which is about 15kgs lighter than the predecessor. The new Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade is available in two color shades
Grand Prix Red and Matt Ballistic Black Metallic.
What is VTEC?
VTEC (Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control) is a system developed by Honda which was said to improve the volumetric efficiency of a four-stroke internal combustion engine, resulting in higher performance at high RPM, and lower fuel consumption at low RPM. The VTEC system uses two (or occasionally three) camshaft profiles and hydraulically selects between profiles. It was invented by Honda engineer Ikuo Kajitani. It is distinctly different from standard VVT (variable valve timing) systems which change only the valve timings and do not change the camshaft profile or valve lift in any way.
is technology as VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) in its cars, many of which have a huge fan following amongst enthusiasts. It soon brought similar tech that disengaged two valves at lower rpm onto the 1999 CB400SF Hyper road bike. Most motorcycles that sport VVT today, such as the Suzuki GSX-R1000, are equipped with the tech only affecting the intake valves. Honda’s patent is similar to that of BMW’s SwitchCam system seen on the 2019 R1250GS and S1000RR. What makes it stand out is the fact that Honda’s upcoming technology will alter both intake and exhaust valve timing, unlike BMW’s, which works only on the intake valves.
The current-gen Fireblade produces 189hp at 13,000rpm and a peak torque of 114Nm at 11,000rpm. Apart from a bump in power and stronger power delivery, the inclusion of VVT will also enable the bike to comply with stricter emission norms. We’ll have to wait and see what other updates the upcoming Fireblade will
