Fits:
Honda CBR1000RR-R 2021–2026
Honda CBR1000RR-R SP 2021–2026
Lead time: These wheels are manufactured to order. Current estimated lead time is 5–6 weeks from the time of purchase. 
Note: 2021–2024 CBR1000RR-R / SP front wheels require additional post-anodizing machining steps before assembly — allow an extra 3–5 business days beyond the standard lead time.
Product Overview
This is a complete front and rear forged aluminum wheel set for the 2021–2026 Honda CBR1000RR-R SP. Both wheels arrive fully assembled with all spacers, bearings, rotor carriers, cush drive system, and 90-degree black aluminum valve stems installed. The only items you supply are tires and OEM brake rotors.
No modification to the bike is required. These wheels bolt directly onto the 2021–2026 CBR1000RR-R platform.
What this listing includes as configured:
WWB Ceramic Bearings
One 520 Pitch Rear Sprocket (Tooth Count options 38-50, Email your tooth choice to preston@usedbikesdirect.com
Gloss Black rotor and sprocket carriers
The Apex-6 requires a custom 5-bolt rear sprocket — it does not use the stock sprocket bolt pattern.
Speed sensor rings: The CBR1000RR-R is ABS-equipped and uses wheel speed sensors. Core Moto is adding application-specific speed sensor rings to their wheel lineup on a rolling basis — some applications include Core Moto rings, others require reuse of OEM rings. We have not confirmed ring inclusion for this specific application. Contact us before ordering if this is a concern for your setup.
The finish on this listing is Satin Black Anodized. Anodizing is a surface treatment applied to the aluminum itself — it is not paint or powder coat. Shade can vary slightly between production batches. Wheel sets are anodized as a matched front and rear pair, so color consistency within a set is close, though minor variation under 5% is possible.
Satin finishes are achieved by micro texturing the surface of the raw wheel. After initial surfacing, the wheels go through 2 brightening processes before anodizing.
Want to customize your order?
This listing is configured with the WWB Ceramic Bearings, One 520 Pitch Rear Sprocket (Tooth Count options 38-50), and Gloss Black carriers. If you want anything different, contact us to place a special order before purchasing. Custom orders may affect lead time.

Key Technology & Design
Monolithic hub construction. The Apex-6 is a one-piece forged wheel — the bearing housing and cush drive system are integrated directly into the wheel body rather than using a separate bolt-on hub. Core Moto states this approach produces greater rigidity and lower weight compared to multi-piece hub designs.
Proprietary forging process. Core Moto uses model-specific forging dies rather than generic blanks shared across multiple applications. Each wheel starts as an aluminum billet, heated and shaped under a 6,000-ton constant-pressure hydraulic forge to establish the hub and spoke profile with optimized grain flow. A cold spin process then forms the rim section. After forging, blanks are heat treated and finish-machined by 3-axis and 5-axis CNC equipment using carbide and diamond tooling. Constant-pressure forging produces more controlled and consistent grain flow than drop forging. Core Moto wheels are not drop forged.
Bearings. Base sets are configured with premium steel bearings sourced from verified top-tier manufacturers. Core Moto states their bearings are in most cases larger and wider than stock. For the Apex-6, most rear applications use 3x B6006 bearings and most fronts use 2x B6205. Replacement part details are included in the exploded view diagram shipped with the wheels. WWB ceramic hybrid bearing upgrades are available — contact us if you are interested in that option.
Cush drive system. The rear wheel uses a 5 or 6-pot cylindrical cush drive system. Current production bushings are a single bonded hardened steel and rubber unit developed and refined since 2016.
Sprocket carrier. The Apex-6 uses a 5-bolt anodized CNC aluminum sprocket carrier with pressed-in studs, metal locking sprocket nuts, a bearing retaining ring, and a bearing included. The stud design has been revised for improved load distribution and corrosion resistance. Carriers on this listing are Gloss Black.
Rotor carriers. Carriers are mounted with stainless steel hardware and accept OEM and most aftermarket rotors and rotor bolts. Hardware material is chosen to avoid interference with wheel speed sensor pickups. Rotor carriers on this listing are Gloss Black.
Speed sensor rings. Core Moto is incorporating their own speed sensor rings into select applications on a rolling basis. Inclusion varies by application — some wheels ship with Core Moto rings for one or both wheels, others require reuse of OEM rings. We have not confirmed ring inclusion for this CBR1000RR-R application. Contact us before ordering if ABS sensor ring sourcing is a factor in your build.
Valve stems. 90-degree aluminum valve stems in black are installed on both wheels.
Certifications. DOT and JWL certified. Core Moto states these wheels have been tested by an accredited laboratory to exceed JASO/DOT/JWL standards. Approved for street and track use.
Unsprung and rotational mass. Wheels sit below the suspension — reducing their weight allows the suspension to respond more freely to surface inputs rather than working against the mass of the wheel itself. Reducing rotational mass decreases the energy required to accelerate and brake the wheel, which shortens braking distances and improves acceleration response. Gyroscopic forces are reduced at higher speeds, which lightens steering effort. Track riders and aggressive street riders will notice these effects. For casual street commuting the difference exists but may be subtle.
Wheel care. Core Moto recommends Lemon Pledge and a microfiber cloth for routine cleaning of anodized surfaces. For heavier cleaning, use a mild, acid-free car wash soap. Do not use degreasers or acidic washes on anodized surfaces.

Description:

Core Moto Apex-6 Forged Wheel Set

Fits:

Honda CBR1000RR-R 2021–2026
Honda CBR1000RR-R SP 2021–2026

Lead time: These wheels are manufactured to order. Current estimated lead time is 5–6 weeks from the time of purchase.

Note: 2021–2024 CBR1000RR-R / SP front wheels require additional post-anodizing machining steps before assembly — allow an extra 3–5 business days beyond the standard lead time.

Product Overview

This is a complete front and rear forged aluminum wheel set for the 2021–2026 Honda CBR1000RR-R SP. Both wheels arrive fully assembled with all spacers, bearings, rotor carriers, cush drive system, and 90-degree black aluminum valve stems installed. The only items you supply are tires and OEM brake rotors.

No modification to the bike is required. These wheels bolt directly onto the 2021–2026 CBR1000RR-R platform.

What this listing includes as configured:

WWB Ceramic Bearings
One 520 Pitch Rear Sprocket (Tooth Count options 38-50, Email your tooth choice to preston@usedbikesdirect.com
Gloss Black rotor and sprocket carriers

The Apex-6 requires a custom 5-bolt rear sprocket — it does not use the stock sprocket bolt pattern.

Speed sensor rings: The CBR1000RR-R is ABS-equipped and uses wheel speed sensors. Core Moto is adding application-specific speed sensor rings to their wheel lineup on a rolling basis — some applications include Core Moto rings, others require reuse of OEM rings. We have not confirmed ring inclusion for this specific application. Contact us before ordering if this is a concern for your setup.

The finish on this listing is Satin Black Anodized. Anodizing is a surface treatment applied to the aluminum itself — it is not paint or powder coat. Shade can vary slightly between production batches. Wheel sets are anodized as a matched front and rear pair, so color consistency within a set is close, though minor variation under 5% is possible.

Satin finishes are achieved by micro texturing the surface of the raw wheel. After initial surfacing, the wheels go through 2 brightening processes before anodizing.

Key Technology & Design

Monolithic hub construction. The Apex-6 is a one-piece forged wheel — the bearing housing and cush drive system are integrated directly into the wheel body rather than using a separate bolt-on hub. Core Moto states this approach produces greater rigidity and lower weight compared to multi-piece hub designs.

Proprietary forging process. Core Moto uses model-specific forging dies rather than generic blanks shared across multiple applications. Each wheel starts as an aluminum billet, heated and shaped under a 6,000-ton constant-pressure hydraulic forge to establish the hub and spoke profile with optimized grain flow. A cold spin process then forms the rim section. After forging, blanks are heat treated and finish-machined by 3-axis and 5-axis CNC equipment using carbide and diamond tooling. Constant-pressure forging produces more controlled and consistent grain flow than drop forging. Core Moto wheels are not drop forged.

Bearings. Base sets are configured with premium steel bearings sourced from verified top-tier manufacturers. Core Moto states their bearings are in most cases larger and wider than stock. For the Apex-6, most rear applications use 3x B6006 bearings and most fronts use 2x B6205. Replacement part details are included in the exploded view diagram shipped with the wheels. WWB ceramic hybrid bearing upgrades are available — contact us if you are interested in that option.

Cush drive system. The rear wheel uses a 5 or 6-pot cylindrical cush drive system. Current production bushings are a single bonded hardened steel and rubber unit developed and refined since 2016.

Sprocket carrier. The Apex-6 uses a 5-bolt anodized CNC aluminum sprocket carrier with pressed-in studs, metal locking sprocket nuts, a bearing retaining ring, and a bearing included. The stud design has been revised for improved load distribution and corrosion resistance. Carriers on this listing are Gloss Black.

Rotor carriers. Carriers are mounted with stainless steel hardware and accept OEM and most aftermarket rotors and rotor bolts. Hardware material is chosen to avoid interference with wheel speed sensor pickups. Rotor carriers on this listing are Gloss Black.

Speed sensor rings. Core Moto is incorporating their own speed sensor rings into select applications on a rolling basis. Inclusion varies by application — some wheels ship with Core Moto rings for one or both wheels, others require reuse of OEM rings. We have not confirmed ring inclusion for this CBR1000RR-R application. Contact us before ordering if ABS sensor ring sourcing is a factor in your build.

Valve stems. 90-degree aluminum valve stems in black are installed on both wheels.

Certifications. DOT and JWL certified. Core Moto states these wheels have been tested by an accredited laboratory to exceed JASO/DOT/JWL standards. Approved for street and track use.

Unsprung and rotational mass. Wheels sit below the suspension — reducing their weight allows the suspension to respond more freely to surface inputs rather than working against the mass of the wheel itself. Reducing rotational mass decreases the energy required to accelerate and brake the wheel, which shortens braking distances and improves acceleration response. Gyroscopic forces are reduced at higher speeds, which lightens steering effort. Track riders and aggressive street riders will notice these effects. For casual street commuting the difference exists but may be subtle.

Wheel care. Core Moto recommends Lemon Pledge and a microfiber cloth for routine cleaning of anodized surfaces. For heavier cleaning, use a mild, acid-free car wash soap. Do not use degreasers or acidic washes on anodized surfaces.
