Title: 2007 Honda CBR 600 RR.. THe new 600 to have?
Post by: mdr14 on March 06, 2007, 10:49:48 PM
I am thinking so... stock with 93 octane 111 hp 46 ft pounds of torque, Really good stock geometry too. On the dyno it makes the R6 and GSXR 600 look sick... What amazes me is that this is from Honda.

Maybe I will do an exclusive write up for CBR600RR for Kufalk.

They dropped some of their classes, but right now for CCS it's

Sportbike, Superbike 1st - $1000, 2nd - $750, 3rd - $500, 4th - $400, 5th - $300

They like others have restricted weekends.  The beauty of Honda though is that there's no minimum field...

3 out of 3 pays...

No slipper clutch, but they claim their 'flapper valve' setup reduces engine braking compression to produce a similar effect.  Honestly, it won't do the same thing but might be a little better.  Besides, many of the people running bikes that have slipper clutches stock, replace them with after market ones anyhow...
