The Honda CBR600RR was a sports bike part of the CBR series made by the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer Honda since 2003. The bike was marketed as a top-of-the-line middleweight sports bike and a successor to the 2002 Supersport World Championship-winning CBR600F4i.
The bike was based on technologies used by the Honda RC211V MotoGP bike but also with a similar appearance and was the first bike that featured a Unit Pro-Link rear suspension that helped isolate unwanted forces transmitted to the steering head.
In 2005, the bike received a major revision that included a new bodywork, a fully-adjustable inverted fork on the front, radial-mounted four-piston brake calipers, a new aluminum frame, swingarm, and rear shock absorber.
In 2013, the CBR600RR came in a new package that included new 12-spoke aluminum wheels, revised Electronic Control Unit (ECU) settings, a fine-tuned ram air system that increased torque, a new Showa Big Piston Fork (BPF) on the front, a new shock absorber on the rear, and a new bodywork.
In 2017, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CBR600RR, which came unchanged since its last revision in 2013.
As for 2018, the Honda CBR600RR featured a Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD) that was more sophisticated and detected vehicle speed adjusting damping force and maintaining low-speed maneuverability and offering excellent high-speed handling.
In the power department, the 2018 Honda CBR600RR had at its core a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 118 hp at 13,500 rpm and 66 Nm (49 lb-ft) of torque at 11,250 rpm.
