Beginning in 2005, Honda offered two versions of the CB1300: the standard, unfaired model, and the Super Bol D'Or (in Europe the CB1300S), with half fairing.[2]

The CB1300 has never been sold by authorized dealers in the United States or Canada.[3][4] Gray market importers brought in small numbers.

The 2018 model, only available in Japan, had some performance and exhaust changes bringing power up to 109 hp.[1] The 2021 model adds a throttle-by-wire system with riding modes and cruise control.[5]
