2013 Honda CBR600RR

Seller’s Descripiton

Drawing upon knowledge from its RC212V MotoGP race bike, Honda used Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to study airflow around the CBR. Changes to the bodywork have resulted in a 6.5-percent reduction in aerodynamic drag. Compared to its predecessor, the new bike has more sculpted curves and fewer sharp edges, with distinctive new headlights that help guide air into the central ram-air intake. With fewer high-pressure areas on the bike, Honda claims that handling is more agile, and EPA fuel economy has increased from 40 to 44 mpg (I recorded 35.4 mpg during about 100 miles of mixed riding). So impressive were the results that Honda R&D incorporated what it learned into the design of the new RC213V MotoGP race bike.
CFD, was also used to optimize pressure distribution and air density in the CBR’s ram-air intake system. There are now two baffle plates inside the intake duct that help equalize airflow density, and new mapping for the Programmed Dual-Stage Fuel Injection (PGM-DSFI) system has further refined power delivery. New for 2013 is an Intake Air Control Valve (IACV), first introduced on the CBR1000RR, which stabilizes combustion at all throttle openings for smoother on/off throttle transitions. Honda’s Electronic Steering Damper, which isn’t noticeable at low speeds, helps keep the sharp, short bike on its best behavior. And the 15,000-rpm scream-machine tucked in between the frame rails raises goosebumps on my neck with each thwack of the throttle. This bike is all stock. Like all our bikes, this will be fully serviced, inspected and detailed at the time you take delivery. See this and other great deals at www.cyclehunters.com
