Non-ABS vs. ABS: Key Differences
When shopping for or working on a 2018 CBR600RR, knowing whether it is the base or ABS model changes a few major things:
Weight: The non-ABS model saves roughly 22 lbs compared to the ABS version. The extra weight on the ABS model comes from a complex system of pumps, modules, and heavy wiring. [1, 2]
Brake Line Upgrades: If you plan on upgrading to aftermarket stainless steel braided brake lines (a highly recommended mod for better lever feel), the non-ABS model requires a straightforward, affordable 2-line or 3-line kit. The ABS model requires a highly complex, expensive multi-line routing kit that is notorious for being difficult to bleed. [1]
Rider Aids: The 2018 non-ABS version is completely analog. It features no traction control, no power modes, and no electronic rider assists outside of the stock Honda Electronic Steering Damper (HESD).
"This bike has an aftermarket fairing."
The 2018 model retains the aerodynamic fairing redesign introduced in 2013, featuring a central ram-air intake that jams air straight into the engine at high speeds. The power delivery is very smooth but heavily top-end focused—meaning it feels tame below 7,000 RPM, but screams with race-bred urgency all the way up to its 15,000 RPM redline. This bike also has a nice aftermarket exhaust.
Its chassis configuration, centered around the iconic undertail exhaust, keeps the bike's mass incredibly centralized. This allows the bike to flick effortlessly into tight corners with maximum stability. This bike, like all our bikes will be fully serviced, inspected and detailed at the time you take delivery.
