The CB1100R was an exotic Honda model that was produced in limited numbers from 1981–1983. It was a full fairing sport bike based on the Honda CB900F.^[1] The R suffix denotes a racing version produced so that Honda could homologate the R as a production motorcycle for European and Australian tracks and prove their design in the race world. It was Honda's first 'homologation special'.^[1] It was primarily sold in Europe and not sold in the USA.

The model designations are CB1100RB (1981), CB1100RC (1982), and CB1100RD (1983). In 1981, 1050 units were sold, followed by 1500 per year in 1982 and 1983. The R model has bodywork including a full fairing, aluminum fuel tank, and solo seat with modified tailpiece. In 1983 the Honda CB1100F was launched that essentially was a blend of the CB1100R and the CB900F, for a broader market. The 1981 CB1100RB had a claimed 115 hp (86 kW) @ 9000 rpm.^[1]
