The pics here are of the 2017 CBR1000RR, but it’s the same as the 2019, which continues on into 2020. Even the graphics are nearly the same. Lost in the attention being given to the new RR-R SP is the fact the Double R will continue on in 2020’s American market as a $16,499 base model alternative to the $28,500 Triple R.Powered by a tried and tested 599cc liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine that produces 113 horsepower and 48.7 lb-ft of peak torque, the CBR600RR offers exceptional performance in a package that’s light and nimble on the roads. The secret to the CBR600RR’s success isn’t the engine performance; it’s down to the handling. I had a 05 CBR600RR -1 tooth on the front sprocket and +2teeth on the rear sprocket, and LeoVince slip-on. Best I got it was 10.62@131.27mph.
The top speed with stock gearing at 13,000 RPM for '08 and up (if you can reach it) is 184.6 MPH. The limit you see displayed is not any kink of governor etc. It's just the max speed it's programmed to display, you can accelerate past that IF the bike is capable. So 1k RR '08 and up goes 185 mph.
Honda’s 2013 CBR600RR continues a long tradition: easy to ride fast on street or track, flattering the rider at any speed, while still being a dependable street mount that will easily serve
But the Ninja is available without ABS for £4799 and its parallel twin engine claims a much bigger punch than the Honda, at 38bhp to the CBR’s 30. Its nowhere near as fast as its rivals eg. 327 244 340 224 56 129 58 138 210
