2009 Honda CBR®600RR ABS

Additional Features

• Maintenance-free battery.
• Convenient push-to-cancel turn-signal switch.
• Centrally mounted 4.8-gallon fuel tank is positioned low in the frame, increasing mass centralization and allowing a more compact design.
• Line-beam headlights feature three-piece multi - reflector design utilizing two H7 bulbs for optimum light distribution and a unique compact design.
• Attractive, hollow-spoke aluminum-alloy wheels feature race-spec 3.5 x 17.0-inch front and 5.5 x 17.0-inch rear dimensions.
• Compact rear-cowl storage compartment for U-type locking devices under the passenger seat (lock not included).
• Industry-leading ergonomic design features maximum rider comfort for minimum fatigue in all riding conditions.
• Integrated ignition-switch / fork lock for added security.
• Instrumentation is very compact and features LCD panel with tachometer, odometer, twin tripmeters, speedometer, fuel gauge and clock.
• Plastic tank shell cover protects tank and airbox.
• One-piece fan assembly for maximum cooling efficiency.
• Pivoting, aerodynamic mirrors.

Chassis / Suspension

• Radial-mounted monoblock four-piston front calipers feature chromium-plated aluminum pistons and squeeze lightweight 310 mm floating discs in front and a 220 mm rear disc with a single-piston caliper for exceptional 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.
• Exclusive, MotoGP-derived Unit Pro-Link Rear Suspension.
• 41 mm inverted HMAS cartridge front fork features spring preload, rebound and compression damping adjustability for precise suspension tuning.
• Hollow Fine Die-Cast (DC) frame uses four large castings for ultra light weight.
• CBR600RR ABS features Honda's electronic Combined ABS. This all-new ECM-controlled, hydraulically actuated system provides accurate braking force distribution to both wheels. ABS is controlled by a hydro-electronic unit and stroke simulator to ensure precise operation. Benefits include consistent lever pressure without the pulsing often associated with ABS systems. Application of rear brake does not result in immediate front brake activation unless lock-up is sensed, allowing an experienced rider to use rear brake in a normal manner during spirited riding. Combined ABS components are smaller and lighter than conventional hydraulic ABS designs, and have been located closer to the center of the machine, enhancing mass centralization and reducing unsprung weight.

Engine / Drivetrain

• 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.
• Light neodymium magnet ACG.
• Lightweight magnesium head cover.
• Cylinder head features angled valve insets to improve airflow.
• Iridium-tip spark plugs improve fuel combustion and performance.
• Lightweight stainless-steel four-into-one exhaust features inline-exhaust valve to control exhaust pressure for increased performance.
• Double-pivot tensioner for cam-chain durability.
• Cylinder head features two springs per intake valve and one spring per exhaust valve for optimum high-rpm valve operation and durability.
• Oil jets located beneath the pistons for extra friction reduction and cooling.
• Liquid-cooled DOHC 16-valve 599 cc four-stroke inline four-cylinder engine features oversquare bore and stroke of 67 mm x 42.5 mm.
• Nose-mounted, two-stage ram-air system provides high volume of cool air to the airbox for linear power delivery and incredible engine performance.
• Non-resonance knock sensor maintains optimum spark advance while constantly monitoring combustion performance during mid- to high-rpm operation.
• Idle-Air Control Valve (IACV) minimizes torque reaction and smoothes response to small throttle changes through gradual reductions of air and fuel intake.
• Smooth-shifting close-ratio six-speed transmission with ratios closely matched to the engine's powerband.
• Nutless connecting rods contribute to reduced weight and quicker acceleration.
