A winner on the racetrack and in magazine comparison tests, the light, compact and powerful Honda CBR600RR raises performance standards to new heights in the middleweight class.

The amazing CBR600RR combines radical performance with everyday practicality in a way that'll blow your socks off. With most 600s, you get either a great track bike that's high-strung and uncomfortable on the street, or a great streetbike that lacks the right stuff for track days or race wins. With the CBR600RR, we found a way to achieve superior track and street performance in one amazing bike. Careful attention to chassis geometry and ergonomics makes the CBR600RR wonderfully balanced and predictable for superior control on twisty roads or streets.
 

If 2007 gave any clue, the CBR®600RR has only just begun to write its legacy in the annals of 600-class performance. Crowned the Best Middleweight of 2007 by both Cycle World and Rider magazines, the CBR600RR oozes MotoGP-bred tech. Dual Stage Fuel Injection, Pro-Link® rear suspension, HESD electronic steering damper, wicked new colors for 2008 there's no other 600 like it. And there never will be.

 Engine/Drivetrain

Liquid-cooled DOHC 16-valve 599cc four-stroke inline four-cylinder engine features oversquare bore and stroke of 67mm x 42.5mm.

Idle-air control valve (IACV) minimizes torque reaction and smoothes response to small throttle changes through gradual reductions of air and fuel intake.

Oil jets located beneath the pistons for extra friction reduction and cooling.

Iridium-tip spark plugs improve fuel combustion and performance.

Non-resonance knock sensor maintains optimum spark advance while constantly monitoring combustion performance during mid- to high-rpm operation.

Nose-mounted, two-stage ram-air system provides high volume of cool air to the airbox for linear power delivery and incredible engine performance.

Lightweight magnesium head cover.

Cylinder head features angled valve insets to improve airflow.

Cylinder head features two springs per intake valve and one spring per exhaust valve for optimum high-rpm valve operation and durability.

Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation ensures high-rpm performance and durability with 16,000-mile maintenance intervals.

Lightweight, forged-aluminum pistons incorporate special shot peening for added strength.

Nutless connecting rods contribute to quicker acceleration.

Light neodymium magnet ACG.

Lightweight stainless steel four-into-one exhaust features inline-exhaust valve to control exhaust pressure for maximum performance.

Double-pivot tensioner for cam-chain durability.

Smooth-shifting close-ratio six-speed transmission with ratios closely matched to the engine's powerband.

 Chassis/Suspension

Hollow Fine Die-Cast (DC) frame uses four large castings for ultra light weight (see Technology Section).

41mm inverted HMAS cartridge front fork features spring preload, rebound and compression damping adjustability for precise suspension tuning. (see Technology Section)

Exclusive, MotoGP derived Unit Pro-Link Rear Suspension (see Technology Section).

Braking system features twin four-piston radial-mounted front calipers, dual 310mm front discs and a single 220mm rear disc for optimum stopping power.

Vertical-piston master-cylinder system produces superior leverage ratio at the front brake lever for higher braking efficiency, excellent feel, and controllability. This layout permits the use of a longer brake lever, which means more braking force with less effort from the rider.

Light aluminum steering stem.
