Honda CB1000F SE Set for Global Reveal Next Month

Honda is all set to spice up the café racer segment with its upcoming CB1000F SE, which will officially break cover on 1 August 2025 during the Suzuka 8 Hours event in Japan. The latest teaser gives us a sneak peek at what’s coming, and it looks like Honda fans are in for a treat.

A Glimpse at the Design

The CB1000F SE will draw inspiration from the CB1000F Concept displayed earlier this year. If the teaser is anything to go by, the motorcycle will carry a café racer vibe with a sleek headlamp cowl, sculpted fuel tank, and clean lines that give it a sporty yet classic look.

Unlike hardcore café racers that get a single seat, Honda is expected to keep it practical by offering a single-piece seat with a pillion section, making it suitable for city rides and short weekend trips.

Engine and Performance

• The CB1000F SE will share its 155bhp inline-four engine with the Honda Hornet 1000, ensuring thrilling power delivery.
  
  
• Expect refined performance suitable for spirited rides and weekend highway runs.

Will It Come to India?

While it would be exciting, it is unlikely that the CB1000F SE will be available in the Indian market, mainly because the café racer market here is small and does not attract a large enough audience. However, for the markets globally it will provide a new offer for riders looking for a bike which offers modern performance along with retro aesthetics.
