Limited Edition Track-Only Honda CBR1000RR-R Spa 100 Breaks Cover

Europe’s most iconic circuit, Spa-Francorchamps just turned 100 years old this week and as a commemoration, a specially built Honda CBR1000RR-R is chosen to honour the racetrack.

Introducing the Honda CBR1000RR-R Spa 100, a track-only machine built by DG Sport to pay homage to the Belgian circuit.

While it may look identical to the stock CBR1000RR-R, DG Sport has done massive changes in order to turn it into a track weapon.

As usual, the first to go is the side mirrors, lights and number plate holder.

Next, the Showa Big Piston Fork (BPF) is slotted with Öhlins cartridges into the 43mm front fork along with an Öhlins TTX rear shock and steering damper.

DG Sport proceed to remove the ABS system entirely and replaced all the hoses with braided parts while adding a Corsacorta master cylinder.

Meanwhile, the engine also received huge upgrades, thanks to a new HRC engine management sytem and a full exhaust system from Arrow.

While further details are still unknown, we can be sure the special edition Honda CBR1000RR-R Spa 100 is considerably lighter and more powerful than the stock machine.

By the way, with just 10 units built, we are pretty sure the bike is sold out the moment you finished reading this.
