Honda Ignition Security System (HISS)

Like most of Honda’s larger displacement motorcycles, the new CB1000R is also fully equipped with the highly capable Honda Ignition Security System (HISS), which features a fail-safe electronic interlock to prevent the engine from being started by anything other than the machine’s two original keys, thus providing effective protection against ride-away theft. Designed to totally disable the engine at the very heart of its ignition system, the HISS system cannot be bypassed by hot-wiring the ignition or exchanging the ignition switch module.


Optional Equipment

Honda Access will be supplying the new CB1000R with an assortment of optional parts and accessories to accentuate is bold, attractive style and extend its range of operating versatility. These accessories include:

  • A colour-matched rear seat cowl that snaps into place to accentuate the CB1000R’s purposeful street-brawling look.
  • A luxuriously finished Alcantara seat.
  • A decorative crankcase cover set.
  • A decorative fuel tank cap cover.
  • A selection of lightweight and stylish carbon fibre parts specially developed for the new CB1000R.
  • A selection of decorative panels.
  • A compact alarm unit with motion detector, siren and back-up battery to provide extra protection against vandalism and theft. A low-consumption sleep mode protects battery from drainage.
