Honda CBR description
It has been a great starter bike for any first time rider, My wife is ready to upgrade so ready to sell NOW!
First Stop: Reduced Weight
In planning the design of the 2007 CBR600RR, the first targeted goal was massive weight reduction. In a class where the lightest bikes are separated by only a few pounds, dropping more than 16 pounds from the CBR600RR required Honda engineers to rethink virtually every piece of the puzzle. A whole new engine features components that combine to reduce overall engine weight by 3.7 pounds, making it the lightest engine in its class. The new chassis weighs an astonishing 12.5 pounds less than the previous 600RR chassis. Even the CBR600RR’s electronics contributed to the weight loss, paring a pound off the previous components. No part, however small, was overlooked in the process of trimming weight for the desired advantages in performance. In completing this mission, the net result is class-leading acceleration at all speeds, a freer-revving engine and remarkably responsive, smoother handling.
Make It Light, Make It Small
Amazing as these achievements may be, weight reduction figured into only half of the equation for 2007; Honda engineers also targeted drastic reductions in size. And so the heart of the CBR600RR, the engine, shrank an amazing 27.5mm in length compared to the 2006 model, making its front-to-rear (459.7mm) dimensions by far the smallest in the 600cc class. This new-think approach tightens the distance from the engine’s crankshaft to the transmission output shaft by 1.2 inches (30.5mm), allowing Honda to have the shortest front-to-rear dimension in the 600cc class.
To accomplish this, the transmission main input shaft was relocated just slightly forward and upward when compared to the 2006 configuration. Given this extra bit of clearance, the transmission countershaft is now squeezed in much closer to the crankshaft in a more tightly triangulated configuration than before, which allows the reduction in engine size. This shortened engine length facilitates a drastic reduction in wheelbase compared to the previous-generation CBR600RR (which already had one of the shortest wheelbase figures in the class). The new bike places its axles 0.90 inch (23mm) closer together for a truly revolutionary wheelbase figure of 53.8 inches.
Changing the Chassis Paradigm
Given a substantially shorter wheelbase, conventional thinking would change the steering geometry to more conservative figures to add stability. Not so with the 2007 CBR600RR. In fact, the new machine has a steeper steering-head angle than ever before: 23.7 degrees from 24.0 degrees, while steering trail increased from 95.0mm to 97.7mm. So how did Honda get the stability required? In addition to a whole new frame, the CBR600RR features the next-generation Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD).

San Francisco Motor Cops Can Chase You Up Stairs + Video
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Let’s get one thing out of the way: trying to evade the police is dumb. One way or another you’re going to lose. And if you’re thinking of evading a San Francisco motor cop, or a law enforcement officer trained by them, by heading off the beaten path or up a flight of stairs, think again.
Isle of Man TT 2013: PokerStars Senior TT Race Results
Fri, 07 Jun 2013For a while there, it looked as if John McGuinness would be held off the top podium position through the entire 2013 Isle of Man TT. McGuinness had recorded third-place finishes at the Superbike, Superstock and the second Supersport TT races earlier in the week, but the active leader in Isle of Man TT wins was stuck at 19 wins all week. That finally changed and the Honda TT Legends racer finally earned win #20 in the final race of this year’s event, the Senior TT.
Honda Sold 16.8 Million Motorcycles in 2013
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Honda announced sales of 16.8 million motorcycles in 2013, an improvement of 8.7% from the 15.5 million motorcycles sold in 2012. The announcement was made two days before Honda’s third quarter report for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2013, so we will have to wait to hear the financial impact, but based on these numbers, the quarterly report should be positive.
