Honda CBR600RR (2021) and CBR600RR Race Base

Honda CBR600RR 2021

The wave of rumors about the new Honda CBR600RR is growing, and Japanese sources are vying with each other about a device in the style of the CBR1000RR-R, which will be announced later this year. Vague rumors about the new Honda CBR600RR have been circulating for some time now, but the recently received news seems to be quite credible.

2022 Honda CBR600RR

According to people in the know, the 2022 Honda CBR600RR will be an update rather than an all-new model, and will focus on design and electronics to breathe new life into the existing design rather than starting from scratch. According to our Japanese tipster, this update may be the last for the Honda CBR600RR, as it becomes increasingly difficult to make 600cc inline-fours at a reasonable price due to increasingly stringent environmental regulations.

Design by Fireblade

The key visual change for the 2022 Honda CBR600RR will be a new hood, repeating the developments on the CBR1000RR-R superbike. This means we can expect downforce-producing aerodynamic aids and smaller headlights flanking the centrally located inertial boost intake. However, the smaller CBR will be easily recognizable by its distinctive exhaust exiting under the seat. The frame and rear suspension of the model were created specifically for this exhaust tract layout, and judging by the fact that no significant mechanical updates are expected, it is unlikely that the exhaust tract will be changed in any way.

Updated electronics

Despite the mechanical similarities, the next generation Honda CBR600RR will be distinguished significantly by its on-board electronics package. A new inertia sensing device will be at the heart of these changes, incorporating traction control and lean-sensing ABS, bringing the CBR600RR to the level expected of the latest sportbikes. In terms of performance, the 2022 model will produce approximately 115 hp, that is, at the level of the current model, despite environmental improvements that will extend the life of the model.

Technical characteristics of the Honda CBR 600RR motorcycle (2014)

A modern sportbike can be uncompromising. Tuned for maximum performance, things like comfort, ease of use and everyday practicality tend to go out the window. As for the Honda CBR600RR , these features were carefully incorporated into the overall concept from the very beginning. There's no doubt that the Honda CBR600RR ABS have been at the forefront of the fight for 600 class supremacy since its introduction; in fact, he just won the Canadian National Championship for the third year in a row. But perhaps even more impressive than its long list of races and championship wins is its reputation on the street as a fully functional everyday bike with superior durability. Perhaps it was this reputation for durability that led to the Honda CBR600RR being chosen as the basis for the World Motor 2 Championship race cars.

Honda CBR600RR ABS - Track or Street

The CBR600RR ABS is a masterpiece of racing engineering that continually raises the bar on both track and road. Its ultra-light weight, mass centralization and compact chassis ensure its blister power is balanced by simplicity, natural handling and impeccable road manners. Its powerful engine delivers instant, exhilarating torque, while its fairing is aggressively aerodynamic, enhancing stability and allowing you to enjoy the machine's performance to the fullest. The caliper-mounted four-piston front disc brakes give it sensational stopping power, while the ABS version features Honda's revolutionary Electronically Controlled Combined ABS, which provides all the benefits of ABS in a system designed specifically for Super Sports racers.

Honda electronic steering damper

Linear headlights

The linear headlights feature a two-piece reflector design that uses two H7 bulbs for optimal light distribution and a unique compact design. The result: the headlight helps you see better and also makes you visible to traffic.

Two stage air system

The nose-mounted two-stage air intake system delivers a large volume of cool air into the airbox for linear power delivery and superior engine performance.

Two-stage fuel injection

Two sets of injectors per cylinder provide performance at both low and high speeds. You get near-instantaneous high-rpm response, along with excellent low-rpm metering and a clean ride.

Honda Multi - Action System (HMAS) inverted fork

The HMAS cartridge fork features an exclusive internal piston design. The innovative design uses smaller diameter pistons to maintain high oil velocities for improved damping characteristics and an extended adjustment range. The result: you get more precise suspension characteristics, especially over small surface irregularities.

Radial mounted front brake calipers

The Honda CBR600RR uses monobloc radial front brake calipers. This design makes the caliper stiffer, meaning you get better braking feel for a more linear, powerful stop. Each caliper also uses four chromed aluminum pistons for smooth, friction-free operation.

Honda electronic steering damper

Center-mounted fuel tank 4. The Honda CBR600RR's is located in the center of the chassis and low in the frame. This allows for a more compact design, but more importantly helps centralize the mass of the bike. Increased mass centralization means the CBR is more responsive to rider input, especially when the bike is leaning or standing at exit. Pro - Link Suspension By eliminating the frame-mounted top shock mount, Unit Pro-Link isolates the chassis from shock, resulting in more precise handling and better traction. Developed from Honda's championship-winning MotoGP motorcycles, it is a fine example of CBR's superior engineering.

Electronic combined anti-lock braking system (C-ABS)

The all-new electronically controlled C-ABS distributes braking force across both wheels, helping to maintain braking confidence in less-than-ideal conditions. The system electronically measures the driver's input to the brake lever and pedal and applies only the front or rear brake in some cases, or a combination of both brakes in other situations.

The Fine Die-Cast (FDC) frame uses four large castings for light weight.
The Showa Big Piston fork has a larger damping volume to effectively reduce the hydraulic pressure created when the fork legs compress and extend. The result is more precise action during initial stroke and smoother damping for improved handling, improved front-end feedback and a firmer feel under hard braking. The Pro-Link rear suspension unit is inspired by the RC213V MotoGP racer.
With this two-piece shock system, the top shock mount is located inside the swing arm rather than the frame. With no top frame mount for impact, this unique system reduces negative suspension energy transferred into the frame, providing optimal frame stiffness and improved cornering ability.
Honda's small and lightweight Electronic Power Steering (HESD) improves stability...
The braking system features two four-piston radial front calipers, two 310mm front discs and one 220mm rear disc for optimal stopping power.
Vertical - Piston master cylinder system provides superior front brake lever ratio for superior braking performance with superior feel and control. This layout allows for a longer brake lever, which means more braking force with less effort from the driver.

The latest CBR600RR?

While these improvements have given the Honda CBR600RR a few extra years in a number of countries, they do not solve the main problem - the model's ability to return to the European market, since Honda was unable to squeeze the 2007 engine into the Euro 5 framework without significantly increasing the price of the motorcycle.

Euro 5 is especially difficult for small, high-performance engines to comply with without additional expensive technology. The current Honda CBR600RR along with the Suzuki GSX-R600 disappeared from the European market in 2022, having failed even to cope with Euro 4, leaving the Kawasaki ZX-6R and Yamaha YZF-R6 to compete with each other in the 600cc supersport class.

The cost of creating and launching production of a completely new Honda CBR600RR in compliance with current environmental requirements, against the backdrop of falling sales of such motorcycles, makes the development of another 600 unprofitable. Therefore, it is likely that the 2022 Honda CBR600RR may become the last model with this index.
