Features & Benefits
Unique CBR600RR Features
Unit Pro-Link(r) rear suspension and swingarm design inspired by
RC211V.
Dual Stage Fuel Injection system features two injectors per
cylinder.
High-revving engine redlines at 15,000 rpm.
New-style center-up exhaust system.
Centrally located fuel tank increases mass centralization and
allows more compact frame design.
New Line Beam Headlight features three-piece reflector
design.
Engine/Drivetrain
All new liquid-cooled DOHC 16-valve 599cc four-stroke inline
four-cylinder engine features oversquare bore and stroke of 67mm x
42.5mm.
High-revving engine has 15,000-rpm redline (CBR600F4i redlines at
14,200), wider powerband and more over-rev than CBR600F4i.
New engine is more compact-engine length is now 236mm vs.
266mm-which helps move the rider forward 70mm.
New iridium-tip spark plugs improve fuel combustion and
performance.
Dual Stage Fuel Injection (DSFI) system features two injectors per
cylinder-one upper and one lower-controlled by an ECU that senses
rpm and throttle opening. Lower injector enhances rideability while
upper injector improves top-end horsepower. At lower rpm only the
lower injector is working. Above 5500 rpm both injectors are
activated. The system uses 40mm throttle bodies.
New Denso injectors with 12 laser-drilled holes deliver a finely
atomized fuel mixture for optimum combustion efficiency and
power.
Auto enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, eliminating
the need for a manual choke.
Two-stage ram-air system provides a high volume of cool air to the
airbox for linear power delivery and incredible engine
performance.
Airbox volume increased to 15 liters (compared to CBR600F4i) for
improved performance.
Cylinder head features angled valve inset to improve air
flow.
Cylinder head features two springs per intake valve and two springs
per exhaust valve for optimum high-rpm valve operation and
durability.
Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation ensures high-rpm
performance and durability and offers 16,000-mile maintenance
intervals.
New lighter pistons, piston pins and nutless connecting rods
contribute to higher revving engine.
New double-pivot cam-chain tensioner improves cam chain
durability.
Starter gears moved to the right side for increased lean
angle.
New lightweight aluminum oil cooler.
Center-up muffler design increases lean angle and reduces wind
drag.
Smooth-shifting close-ratio six-speed transmission is closely
matched to the engine's powerband.
Chassis/Suspension
Completely new die cast aluminum frame utilizes new manufacturing
methods to provide optimum rigidity while reducing weight. Frame is
tuned for precise handling characteristics.
Large, 45mm cartridge front fork offers rebound and compression
damping and spring preload adjustability.
New Unit Pro-Link rear suspension system is patterned after RC211V
GP racer. In this system, the upper shock mount is contained within
the swingarm rather than the frame. With no top frame-mount for the
shock, this unique system eliminates negative suspension energy
from being transmitted into the frame, allowing optimum frame
rigidity and improved rideability out of corners. The HMAS shock
offers rebound and compression damping, and spring preload
adjustability.
Rear swingarm technology derived from RC211V.
Braking system features twin four-piston front calipers, dual 310mm
front discs and a single 220mm rear disc for optimum stopping
power.
New center-up exhaust system features four-into-two-into-one design
for increased performance and aerodynamics.
Handlebars located below top triple-clamp for precise
handling.
Additional Features
Industry-leading ergonomic design features maximum rider comfort
for minimum fatigue in all riding conditions.
Centrally mounted 4.8-gallon fuel tank is positioned low in the
frame, increasing mass centralization and allowing a more compact
design. This design positions the rider 70mm forward for optimum
handling.
New plastic tank shell cover protects tank and airbox.
New Line Beam Headlight features three- piece reflector design
(first in the world) utilizing two H7 bulbs for optimum light
distribution, and unique compact design.
New instrumentation is more compact and features tachometer,
speedometer and fuel gauge.
Attractive hollow-spoke aluminum alloy wheels feature race spec 3.5
x 17-inch front and 5.5 x 17-inch rear dimensions.
Increased radiator capacity to match increased engine
performance.
New one-piece fan assembly increases cooling efficiency.
Maintenance-free battery.
Optional seat cowl.
Compact rear cowl storage compartment for U-type locking devices
(lock not included) under the passenger seat.
Folding aerodynamic mirrors.
Integrated ignition switch/fork lock for added security.
Convenient push-to-cancel turn signal switch.
Transferable one-year, unlimited mileage limited warranty; extended
coverage available with a Honda Protection Plan.
Ownership includes one-year complimentary Membership in the Honda
Rider's Club of America(tm). Benefits include discounts, travel
benefits, roadside assistance and much more. For HRCA(r) details,
