It steers so well, you can really flick the motorcycle around and there so much feedback from the front tyre you can carry loads of brake into the turn.

A lighter crank and lighter con-rods means lighter — and smaller — everything else, so the entire package — capped off with ounce lighter magnesium valve covers — measures up as The clutch is lighter, smaller and stronger, and the transmission gets closer ratios and a redesign to reduce driveline lash. The airbox — which now sucks air through a hole in the front of the frame like the RC — gains seven percent of additional capacity, and the radiator is 40mm narrower, but The exhaust now has titanium baffles; they could have put that bling-bling on display like some OEMs do, but they put it inside where it would do the most good. Suspension and brakes are standard, if effective, fare. In front, a fully-adjustable except for high-speed settings 41mm inverted fork and four-piston radial-mount calipers get the job done, although Toland said the new braking components offer more sensitivity and in the rear the Honda Unit Pro-Link is bolted to the three-way-adjustable shock.

It carried the Supersport World Championship winning streak into , and on through , and won in and In the past Honda has always developed a roadbike, then modified it for racing. But with the RR, we first built a prototype racer, then gave it to the production department. Honda said that the use of its new 'Hollow Fine Die Cast' frame technology, in which sand casting molds were given a ceramic interior coating, made it possible to reduce the thickness of the five-piece aluminum frame from 3. The model carried over to technically unchanged, with only the addition of an oxygen sensor. In , the CBRRR received a major revision with new bodywork, fully adjustable inverted front forks, disc brakes with radial-mounted four-piston calipers, and a new aluminum frame, swingarm and rear shock. The midrange power was also increased. These changes along with additional refinements to the engine and exhaust system brought CBRRR's wet weight down by The CBR's most radical redesign since the introduction of the RR in is highlighted by a whole new engine, frame, and bodywork that results in a smaller, lighter, more-powerful CBRRR with a class-leading power-to-weight ratio and unparalleled performance. Weight was the primary focus of the redesign. The result was a 9. The completely new engine was smaller and lighter than its predecessor, the designers having used careful positioning of all internal components to achieve reductions in the motor's length, width, and height, as well as reducing weight by 2 kg 4. Horsepower increased to about hp 78 kW measured in independent tests. The handling of the new bike was sharpened by its 22 mm 0. Despite the shorter wheelbase, the model's swingarm was 5 mm 0.

A very comfortable ride even on day trips mi days. I even went a hair quicker around the track on it than I did on the Suzuki.

Smooth, fast, and easy to handle. Top notch. I love it, it's like they went through the previous generation and found everything that could possibly be wrong, and made it a million percent better. I couldn't imagine owning a different small four at this time. I love I'm a new rider, but I love it!!!

I tried the Yamaha R6 from a friend and let me tell u, I wouldn't trade him for my rr even if he added cash to sweetend the deal.

The CBR has been around for over 30 years now, starting with the first CBRF back in which was the very first proper super sport machine. Fast forward to and things got serious when Honda released the first RR, which saw the shift in focus from a practical sports bike to a machine built just for the track. In Honda brought us this revised version of the RR, this model range carried on until The bike looks great and for the most part only improved on everything that the first RR got right. The cc inline four at the heart of the bike is physically smaller than the previous generation, but actually produces much more usable power.

The CBR doesn't gain enough speed to make the second part much of a turn, making this section easier and much less tiring on the Honda. Likewise as expected, the Honda fared well in the chassis department against the bigger bikes. The exhaust now has titanium baffles; they could have put that bling-bling on display like some OEMs do, but they put it inside where it would do the most good. But if you're up to the task, the ZXR can and will generate serious speed. Seat Height. Retrieved 22 February Suzuki The Suzuki's seating Medium Rear Tyre.

Tools Tools. Opinions Troy Siahaan Yech! The Kawasaki doesn't need anything but money for insurance and tires. For me the mid range is ample, even two up, to over take without having to go berserk through the rev range. The completely new engine was smaller and lighter than its predecessor, the designers having used careful positioning of all internal components to achieve reductions in the motor's length, width, and height, as well as reducing weight by 2 kg 4. These changes along with additional refinements to the engine and exhaust system brought CBRRR's wet weight down by Horizontal In-line. What makes the situation worse is that it wouldn't take much to move bikes from the bottom to the top: A set of BTs on the Honda would make a great combination down some of my favorite twisty roads, and a sprocket change on the Suzuki would work wonders at the track. Find it almost impossible to buy from a main dealer unless you've done a PCP deal, want to do a PCP deal or have an almost new bike to trade. Honda CBRF4i. The GPS-based system records true ground speed and position, allowing the software to produce any combination of segment times and corner speeds.
