The bike features only cosmetic changes, apart from the addition of a quickshifter

The bike is finished in HRC racing colours, but has been completely transformed, at least aesthetically. Up front, the headlight cowl is made from composite and flows seamlessly with the CB1000R's design lines, and also features the Limited Edition badge and individual number. At the rear, the bike has a slim LED taillight, mounted high up, as is the licence plate, revealing the entire rear tyre, and also features a track-only Racefit Growler X titanium exhaust, complementing the stock bike's single-sided swingarm.

The spoked wheels are new as well, and the standard brake and clutch levers are replaced with adjustable levers with anodised red adjusters, matched to billet machined mirrors. Each individually-numbered bike will come with a signed certificate of authenticity, and owners will have the option to have Guy Willison's signature painted on the tailpiece. The Honda CB1000R 5Four is available through Honda dealers in the UK only, and retails at GBP 16,954 (approximately Rs. 17.50 lakh), around GBP 5,000 (approximately Rs. 5 lakh) more than the stock Honda CB1000R. It's unlikely to be offered on sale in India.
