About this range of bikes

The CBR600RR is the embodiment of the values of "Total Control" pursued consistently throughout all CBR series. Featuring the best of the best, including aerodynamic management function and electronic controls derived from the RC213V. While lightweight and compact in size which enables agile handling, the CBR600RR is also defined by the high-power and controllable output.

Track technology: Throttle By Wire, Honda Selectable Torque Control, Six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) 5 riding modes
High performance: 599cc Liquid-cooled 4-stroke 16-valve DOHC inline-4 with PGM-FI
HRC pedigree: Inspired from Honda's ultimate RC213V race machine

Key features

599cc 4-cylinder engine

The CBR600RR's compact 599cc, liquid cooled DOHC 16-valve inline four-cylinder engine’s high-power output is thanks to an enhanced rotation rate and optimised camshaft, valve spring, and crankshaft designs. The shape port of the cylinder head, throttle bore diameter and valve timing all contribute to the motorcycle’s high performance.

Suspension

The 41mm inverted Showa Big Piston Front Fork front suspension offers excellent rigidity balance. The light swing arm has an optimised internal structure, aimed at the ideal rigidity balance and thickness. The reduced unsprung mass enhances riding performance as well.

Exhaust system

The signature under seat exhaust is designed to improve efficiency, also contributing to enhanced power output. The shape, size, weight and all parts are developed to deliver the highest performance.

Assist slipper clutch

The aluminium cam assist slipper clutch has been designed to mitigate rear wheel hop caused by sudden braking when shifting down gears, significantly reducing the physical operating force of the clutch lever.

Ride modes

You can choose any of the 5 riding (3 pre-set and 2 that can be customised) modes at will and enjoy different performance depending on the situation. Each mode alters Power, Honda Selectable Torque Control intervention, Wheelie Mitigation Control and Selectable Engine Brake (EB). You can switch to a different riding mode while riding too, just by using the SEL switch on the left handlebar.

Brakes

The braking system uses a radial-mounted opposed-piston 4-pot calliper and φ310mm double disc on the front, and a lightweight single-pot calliper and φ220mm disc on the rear. With cornering ABS, the ECU detects the motorcycle’s position and bank angle signal sent from the IMU and controls the brake pressure through the ABS modulator. It suppresses the rear lift during hard braking, and improves stability.
