2023 Honda CBR600RR, 2023 Honda CBR600RR
 

DESCRIPTION:

SUPERSPORT SUPREME

Inline fours are the apex predators of the sportbike world. This is the kind of engine that our MotoGP and World Superbike riders race. And if you’ve ever ridden a bike like our CBR600RR it’s easy to see why. The engines are super-responsive and high revving. The handling is scalpel sharp. And our CBR600RR combines all that with the light weight of a 600-class machine—and light weight is the key to all sorts of performance benefits. A rare breed these days, fours like the CBR600RR and our bigger CBR1000RR are a delight for track-day use, and outstanding on twisty back roads. Available in non-ABS versions. It’s a bike anyone can appreciate, but one that the most demanding riders will love.

FEATURES:

BRAKING

• RADIAL MOUNTED FRONT-BRAKE CALIPERS: The CBR600RR uses radial-mounted monoblock front-brake calipers. This construction makes the caliper stiffer, and that means you get better brake feel for more linear, powerful stopping. Each caliper also uses four chromium-plated aluminum pistons for smooth, friction-free operation.
• 12-SPOKE WHEELS: With their consistent rigidity and balance, these sharp-looking 12-spoke cast aluminum wheels work with the fork and enhance suspension feedback to deliver real handling improvements.
• LINE-BEAM HEADLIGHTS: Line-beam headlights feature a two-piece reflector design that utilizes two H7 bulbs for optimum light distribution and unique compact design. The result: the headlight helps you see better and also helps make you visible to traffic.

ENGINEERING

• CENTRALLY LOCATED FUEL TANK: The CBR600RR’s 4.8-gallon fuel tank is positioned in the center of the chassis and low in the frame. This allows for a more compact design, but even more important helps centralize the bike’s mass. Increased mass centralization means the CBR is more responsive to rider input, especially when leaning the bike into a turn or standing it up at the exit.

HANDLING

• HONDA ELECTRONIC STEERING DAMPER (HESD): Most steering dampers only sense handlebar-deflection speed. The Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD) is way more sophisticated. It also detects vehicle speed, and adjusts damping proportionally. That helps maintain low-speed maneuverability while providing excellent, predictable high-speed handling.
• HONDA MULTI-ACTION SYSTEM (HMAS) INVERTED FORK: The HMAS cartridge fork features an exclusive internal piston construction. The innovative design employs smaller-diameter pistons to keep oil velocity high for improved damping characteristics and an expanded range of adjustability. The result: you get more precise suspension performance, especially over smaller surface irregularities.
