The most favourable bike of the 600cc middle segment category

The Honda CBR600RR is a 599 cc (36.6 cu in) sport motorcycle that was introduced by Honda in 2003 as a race replica version of Honda's CBR600F series. It won every Supersport World Championship title from 2002 to 2008, and again in 2010 and 2014. As of 2015, in the Supersport World Championship, the CBR600 has claimed eight out of twelve titles since its introduction in 2003, whilst also helping Honda to ten manufacturers crowns since 2003.

Honda is a giant name in automobile manufacturing in whole world.  Its motorbikes are also equally popular with spectacular design and advanced innovations. Recently, Honda launched the newest edition of Honda CBR600RR and it is seen as the best 600-class sport bike of world. It is a true companion on both on and off roads and provides a perfect balance of accurate handling, compact overall size, high-revving power and light weight.

I am specially a huge fan of its under seat exhaust, while other bikes have already dropped the design of under seat exhausts Honda still hasn't changed this and I assure you it looks damn good. Recent updates of 2013-2015 includes new 12-spoke wheels, revised ECU settings, and a fine-tuned ram-air system to increase torque. It also gets a new Showa “Big Piston Fork" and retuned rear shock in a new bodywork. Three color schemes are available, including one in the MotoGP’s Repsol livery. The other two are red and tricolor. Another significant change is the newly designed front end, which makes it stand out from the earlier models.

Updated design from the old CBR


 To say the truth the old CBR's head lamps looks awesome but thats my preference. But Honda gave the new design for a purpose as it is said to decrease drag resulting in lesser air resistance which leads to greater performance.

 Sadly, no one is perfect and that goes for CBR as well. As other bikes have technically advanced and gets slipper-clutch & traction control, CBR gets . . . well ABS & steering damper at the least. But if you ask any rider, it doesn't really need those fancy stuffs and even though it doesn't have such technologies it is still the most favorable bike in 600cc category. Overall its a good bike and I have seen most of the motovloggers using CBR, well that means something.
