REF:

Just wondering if Honda has ironed out the vibrations issues in the 2021 version?
Any owners can testify with their experiences?

Just to summarize this thread.
I decided to buy this bike and so far there is no intrusive vibrations/harshness on foot-pegs, seat or handle-bars.
See my review:

Now that my new CB has gone past its break-in period, I did notice the vibrations on the seat and pegs when hitting 6-6.5K RPM.
But, that RPM range is not the daily diet of my bike so it's not an issue to me.

Took my CB up to stratosphere speeds today to test out new engine oil + filter and just wanted to know how this bike felt at those triple digit speeds.
I had to force myself to really lean forward or it felt like I could have been blown off the seat: chest on tank and wrists high up on grips ... can you imagine a chimpanzee on a swing-bars? Still felt a lot of pressure and I know I'm only using 1/2 of the engine's capacity.

Now, I appreciate the seating position and the arched down grips of the CBR's --- it is really designed for high speeds.

Horses for courses ... that's what it is.
