CBR900RR Fireblade
Honda is a Japanese automobile and motorcycle manufacturing company. Honda sold it’s first scooters and motorcycles in the United States in the early 1960’s. The company built a reputation for reliable bikes before introducing the world to the first “superbike.” The Honda CBR900RR carries the tradition of reliability and blistering performance begun decades ago. Owners rely on these CBR900RR service manuals to perform basic maintenance and ensure the high-performance machine is road ready.
The Honda CBR900RR introduced the world to the “race replica” class of street bikes. When the bike debuted in 1992, it was 45 lbs lighter than it’s closest competition, and only 4 lbs heavier than the CBR600RR despite the massive size difference. The Honda CBR900RR continued to be produced, albeit using larger displacement engines, until 2004 when it was replaced by the brand new Honda CBR1000RR.
The Honda CBR900RR used an increased bore-and-stroke version of the companies flagship inline four cylinder engine. Originally a 750 cc power plant, Honda engineers stretched it out to a total of 893 cc. In 1996, Honda increased engine bore slightly, raising the volume of the engine to 918 cc. A completely new 929 cc engine was introduced in 2000 with the Honda CBR929RR. In 2004, the Honda CBR900RR received it’s last engine upgrade, increasing overall volume to 959 cc.
The evolution of the CBR900RR is meteoric. By 2004, the bike that originated as a 475 lb large displacement street bike had become a 370 lb, 130 horsepower rocket ship. From 2000 forward, the CBR900RR featured fuel injection, replacing the original quad-Keihin carbureted version. Combined lightweight body and large engine power produce a startlingly fast motorcycle that also handles and stops at the peak of it’s class.
The original CBR900RR motorcycles are increasing in value as collectors begin snapping up the best examples. The CBR900RR introduced thousands of riders to the high-performance possibilities of Honda motorcycles. Owners and collectors benefit from the technological expertise available through these Honda CBR900RR workshop manuals. The manuals describe in detail how to diagnose and solve problems, make custom modifications, and ensure the bike is running the way Honda intended.
