Moriwaki Engineering released the Street Custom concept for the Honda CB1000F, a customization that combines urban use with track potential. The model incorporates elements from the racer that won the Iron Horse Race, including a traditional exhaust and dedicated components that increase performance.
This version maintains the balance between daily practicality and sportiness, with adjustments that allow adaptation to different driving scenarios. The company highlights the compatibility with the neo-retro style of the CB1000F, reinforcing the versatility of the base model.
Visitors to recent events were able to see details that enhance the aggressive design without compromising street functionality.
Main features of the concept
The Street Custom Concept of the Moriwaki stands out for its short one-piece exhaust, which evokes classic parts from the 1980s and improves the look of the bike. Esse component, under development for commercialization, contributes to a characteristic sound and weight reduction.
Another relevant point is the slim engine guard, designed to protect against falls without adding excessive bulk. The multi-point fixing structure guarantees rigidity and safety, maintaining the CB1000F’s sporty line.
- Black full one-piece exhaust with short silencer.
- Engine guard with layout that surrounds the engine for better protection.
- Semi-smoked gauge visor for racing appearance.
Dedicated parts and adjustments
The Moriwaki equipped the concept with four-position adjustable rear footpegs, allowing for custom settings for rider and type of use. Essa piece, already priced, prioritizes lightness and rigidity for precise operations.
The rear suspension receives specific calibration in partnership with the Nitron, optimized for the CB1000F. The reinforced swingarm, similar to that of the racer model, adds robustness for intense demands.
These items are being finalized for sale, with a focus on accessibility for motorcycle owners.
- Footpegs with positions 10/20 mm up and 30/40 mm back.
- Collaborative suspension Nitron fore and aft.
- Swingarm with reinforcements for stability.
Inheritance of Iron Horse Race
The concept derives directly from the CB1000F racer presented in 2025, which won the Iron Horse Race in September. Essa competition, held in HSR Kyushu, served as a real test for the modifications applied.
The Moriwaki transferred know-how from the track to the street, including designing parts that balance performance and durability. The street model maintains this essence, allowing amateur drivers to access race-proven configurations.
Design and protection details
The engine guard adopts a three-point attachment structure, with bars connecting sides for greater strength. The slim layout preserves the CB1000F’s lightweight aesthetic while increasing protection in mixed use.
The semi-smoked front visor, combined with dedicated headlight brackets, reinforces the racer look without drastically altering the original profile.
Suspension and positioning
Collaboration with Nitron results in Race Pro rear suspension calibrated to the weight and geometry of the CB1000F. Essa configuration improves handling in curves and stability at high speeds.
The rear footpegs, with a glossy black finish, offer four adjustment options to accommodate different heights and riding styles. High rigidity facilitates precise gear changes and braking.
Reinforced swingarm
The swingarm includes reinforcement arms, identical to the one used on the winning racer. Esse component increases torsional rigidity, benefiting traction and precision in accelerations.
The robust design combines racing functionality with looks that complement the retro style of the base bike.
Marketing perspectives
Several parts of the concept advance to series production, including a slip-on exhaust as an initial option. Moriwaki plans to make complete kits available to CB1000F owners.
These accessories aim to expand customization possibilities, ranging from daily use to participation in track events.
- Development of one-piece full exhaust for future launch.
- Back step now available at an affordable price.
- Engine guard and visor in final testing phase.
The Honda CB1000F serves as a solid base for modifications, with an engine derived from sports models and a versatile chassis. The partnership with tuners like Moriwaki demonstrates the bike’s potential in different configurations.
The street custom concept reinforces the Japanese tradition of high-quality accessories for naked models.
