I've never seen a bike more desperate for a tail tidy.

Bling shiny bits, quckshifter

It is reported in various places. No suspension upgrade ever mentioned :-( However, if the suspension is the same as standard FireBlade, then it is pretty good out of the box. Certainly the front is miles better that the standard pre-2018 CB1000R.

A ‘CB1000R+’ version will also be available, with even greater aspirational appeal. It comes with quickshifter, heated grips and a range of premium accessories that flesh out the CB1000R’s styling: metallic meter visor and seat cowl, front fender panel, hugger panel and radiator grill

18 standard or plus will get quite the same rear shock as 08-17 models

 

[BigOne-94-14]

Oooooo

Then my Ohlins is slipping right in there

 

[Hudson]

It would of been nice if the plus version offered some genuine (ie expensive) upgrades like the Triumph naked's do, the suspension being the biggest want from most of us.

Really? I generally think most road riders run out of talent long before the standard CB1KR suspension runs out of capability.

I find the shock OK but the forks not great. I notice this while commuting in the city. On open roads, I have to ride around the inadequacies, and I am not very fast as far as I know.
