Motorcycle specifications HondaCBR 600 RR 2009 Light makeover

the 600 RR continues to renew every 2 years. For 2009, this evolution is less marked. We were expecting a design inspired by the new, more compact style inaugurated by the 2008 CBR 1000, but this is not the case.
The CBR 600 RR '09 is just a bit of stitching on its dress, coupled with a small change of make-up. A new, more enveloping engine cowling with new air intakes protects the engine's side casings, while generating a more efficient airflow at medium to high speeds. The machine is thus supposed to be more stable.

new, more "trendy" indicators, new colors, including a limited series for the CBR 600 RR without ABS.. so much for aesthetic change. The CBR retains its major identity, with the pot under the seat, the VTR-SP2-style air intake, an ultra-compact size and an unchanged dashboard that still lacks sex appeal.

As with all new-generation sports bikes (the 4th for this CBR WHERE MotoId = 74), the pistarde is packed with technology accumulated from previous evolutions. HESD electronic steering damper, MotoGP-style Unit Pro-link monoshock, HMAS 41 mm inverted fork, HISS immobilizer, double set of injectors, reinforced swingarm, cast aluminum frame... in short, everything already found on the 2007-2008 model; apart from ABS and styling, the main changes are in the engine. Changes have been made to the pistons, cylinder head and exhaust (in particular the header pipes and valve system, similar to that used on the CBR 1000 RR Fireblade) to increase torque in the 8/12,000 rpm range, with a 3.5% increase in value at 10,000 rpm. A little extra to get you out of the corner, with a hint of extra gniak. OK, but we'd have liked more watts everywhere to go and get the R6 or eat from the 675 Daytona. After all, the values of the 2009 CBR 600 RR remain unchanged: 120 hp for 184 kg fully loaded (a record weight in the category).

with this evolution, it would be surprising if the 2009 CBR 600 RR were to shake up the 600-sport hierarchy (except in World Supersport, where it does extremely well). On the other hand, the version with combined ABS marks a real evolution towards greater safety and performance on the road. More confidence, more fun, remarkably easy and lively, the CBR 600 RR '09 has perhaps chosen its camp: superb and safe on the road, if not queen on the track.

a number of accessories are available in the network to enhance your CBR '09:

- A 70% tinted bubble for a more dynamic image and enhanced protection. The height is identical.
- A color-matched seat cover that takes the place of the passenger seat to reinforce the CBR600RR's sporty image. Facilitating access to the space under the seat, this hood features a 4-position adjustable backrest, an embossed CBR logo and Honda Racing logos on both sides.
- A selection of carbon parts specially developed for the CBR, including a front mudguard to protect the fork tubes, a rear mudguard to protect the inside of the chassis and an exhaust protector. All these parts meet Honda's quality standards and carry the Honda Racing logo.
- A compact alarm with motion detector and siren. The kit features 8 sensitivity settings and a low-power standby mode that protects the battery from total discharge.
- A stand that lifts the machine from the end of the swingarm to facilitate maintenance of the rear wheel.
- A carbon-style tank protector and filler cap cover with HRC logo.
Dashboard and top-tee covers are also available.
- A set of "Racing" adhesives for fairing and wheels.
