The CBR600rr looks so much better than the CBR1000rr.
I use to own a cbr 600rr was my first bike passed my test in 2011 and jumped straight onto it loved it tbh kept it for around 2 years but I love the repsol who doesn't LOL
I'm not a fan of orange in general, & especially on a bike (not my cup of tea).....but this bike is fucking stunning!
I have seen it in person, & it really stands out. Looks awesome when you have all the matching gear as well.
Congratulations on the bike man! Just be careful on the throttle, ha ha! 😉👍
Best CBR review ever, hats off. Hope you're still enjoying her. Thanks for the effort.
+Yannick D'Honda Thank you sir. Appreciate that. Still enjoying her. Oh and they'll be my own CBR300R review this weekend, get in!
Wasn’t sure weather to trust your review for a while there, then I saw you’re a croc wearer and I immediately knew I was in safe hands! Cracking review mate!
This bike looks incredible from every angel, it's definitely the perfect bike of its own class! I own a CBR250r as my first bike in Canada just to get use to rules and traffic, but I'm planning to get the CBR 600rr Repsol edition this coming Feb. The only issue of this bike -in my opinion - is the high insurance rate in ontario.
Thank you for your video, it's clear and simple, ride safe!
beautiful bike and amazing review . I really wish i can get one one day
I'm very happy you're taking care of the bike
Thanks mate
This is my dream big too
I will get it one day after i get my class 2 licence in singapore!!
Thanks for the review mate
Cheers have a good one! Love the exhaust and all the little add ons you've added
17:28 Same feelings bro. This is my dream bike too, I hope someday i can buy it.
great vid, good review. Have a nice day. :)
THE BEST review of an sportbike here on TH-cam!!!
+FAST600 That means so much. Thank you.
Yeah Sup...positively brilliant bike !....you are going to have a lot of fun navigating those rolling green hills!...
Excellent review and great choice of bike!
You’re a Norwich boy!! Yay! Great video. Am seriously thinking about getting into motorcycling (aware I shouldn’t start on a 600cc, but love this bike for a second bike)
Hi there I like your video and I love the repsol 600rr so I went out last Saturday and brought my cbr repsol 600rr and I pick it up tomorrow can not wait to ride it
Well laid out and presented review. Good job! Beautiful and awesome bike man.
Frejborg Thank you.
Your camera quality and video making skills are AMAZING! Subbed!!!
+Rey B Thank you. Appreciate that.
+Sup3rSaiy3n Considering getting a 600rr as an everyday bike. You think its comfortable enough? Currently have a CB300f but wanted to upgrade to larger engine.
+Rey B Never knew they did a cb300f. I have a cbr300r, very comfortable. Anyway depends on how long you've been riding and whether you've developed any back or wrist problems. I haven't been riding long and it's comfortable after a couple of hours. Best way to find out is to take one for a test ride.
They Have the CB 300f in the U.S. By comfortable I mean how is the seating positioned for a 5-10 rider? How tall are you and how does the bike "fit"? Can u flat foot etc.?
+Rey B I'm about 6ft and can flat foot so I reckon it would be fine for you.
The best Japanese 600cc bike made!! IMO of course the only one better would be the Daytona 675 but thats about it.. Ive had two CBRs now and not a bad thing to say Great Wicked Awesome machine... I had my second one stretched 6inch over and with my motion pro throttle could straight power wheelie with 46 tooth sprocket... Keep Safe Lad,,,, Sweet Ride..
Derek Lane agreed. Favorite Japanese bike. Daytona 675r has the edge tho.
That really is a lovely bike, and I like the changes you've made as well, very nice. You must be very pleased with it ! Btw, my mate ( the one who binned his CBRR) has just bought a new bike ( after driving the local bike dealers nuts with test rides for a month ). A green and black Kwak Z 800. Now he has the joy of having to run it in, lol.
Nice one. I'm going to be making a separate video with all of my current modifications as I am constantly looking for motorbike videos where people have modded their bikes.
I'm off to test ride one of these and a Fireblade back to back. Thanks for the review. It was very useful.
+Ziggy Sheppard You're welcome. Let me know how you get on. Have fun!
***** Unfortunately, I had to test them the wrong way round. I took the blade out first and that made the 600 feel like it lacked power (which it doesn't). I may get a 'blade now though as i suspect that once I got used to the 600 I'd be hankering for a little more.
+Ziggy Sheppard Oh ok. Yeah better the other way round. I've tested them both. There really isn't much in it from 0-60mph but yes when you're doing over 80mph then there's a bit of a difference. However I predict a new fireblade is coming out next year though, the current one is pretty old now whereas the 600 was refreshed in 2013. When I was deciding I could've gone for any bike, including an S1000RR (the best super sports atmo imo) but I loved the complete package (looks, tail exhaust etc) that the 600RR had. Hope that helps. Anyway great you had a go on both in one day. RSM.
great review. cant wait to get a 600rr
Man im gonna say your bike is very clean,seems like you love you bike so much!!!
Thanks man. It's was my commuting bike all of last year. I try and take care of all of my possessions but I do love my bike. I don't baby her though. Use her every day. She's done almost 7K miles in the past 8 months.
Wow!!
Love your bike! Seeing that you've owned a cbr125/300 and now the 600, which do you think is the best for a beginners bike I'm seriously looking into getting one soon I want something easy and fun and fast enough to overtake people on the highway, which cbr do you recommend? Much appreciated!
Great idea with the stickers in the "boot". Aside from staying legible, the bike looks cleaner. Btw, nice, clean looking bike with simple, tasteful mods. Sounds awesome too..
+Avi Mistry Thank you for your kind words.
No worries. Stay safe out there. Cheers!
Ayyy I’m up in Norwich and looking at getting one of these beauties
She really is a lovely machine :) I've sat on a 600rr and being a short dude, they really aren't too good for sorties but it cant be said enough, it is an EPIC machine lol Looks great and performs fantastic :) Hope this incoming season is full of great rides :) Stay safe bro and keep the rubber side down :)
Yeah I can't speak for shorties but I'm about 6ft so this bike must be just right for me. Never get a crouched feeling from it. Thanks for your support Luke.
***** I'm 5ft 6 with a short-ass inside leg (30 inches?). I used to comfortably get on my 2009 CBR6.
I could flat foot it, but only on one side. Two sides required not quite, but almost tip-toes. Really nice sized bike (for short arses like me!).
very nice bike dude! ride safe
Whats the site where you order the frames sliders i been looking for some but none of fhe brands make it for abs models?
im completely in love with this bike...some day ill buy it :D
i wrote my first post 10 second into your review, great review.
+Mark Seals323 Thank you so much.
Nice video. Congratulations.
Beautiful bike! i have the same key chain for my 250r repsol. Im on the same boat, i want to upgrade soon. I want this bike!
+Manny Santellan Thank you and I like your taste. I actually had the keychain for my 125r repsol before the 600.
Great review, great bike. Thinking very seriously about one of these. How comfortable is it around town (weight on the forearms particularly)?
mrnobelnigel Cheers. Going to make an update video soon with all of my upgrades. Yeah it's comfortable around town, I've ridden a Fireblade and that put more pressure on my wrists. Maybe I'm just used to my bike. I will say the seat was very uncomfortable for the first couple of weeks. If you're thinking about one go and book a test ride.
Gorgeous bike mate, with some nice little mods. I had ruled these out as I thought they might be too cramped for me - I'm 6'1 and not too flexible. But I see I might be able to get the footpegs lowered a bit with those plates. Hopefully this will be all I need to do to be comfortable on one. Not sat on one yet.
+Rob S Thank you. I think you'd be surprised if you sat on one, certainly bigger than a Fireblade. I'm about the same height.
The akrapovic exhaust 2013 is the same of cbr 600 rr 2007-08 model?
Nice. Health to enjoy....I was wondering on the left hand side above the gear shifter, what would the engine look like without that plastic cover? I'm torn between a Yamaha r6 and one of these..
Whete did you buy the fairings? Nice bike and nice engine you can see water coming from the exhaust meaning engine was good
Cedrick Santiago The fairings came with the bike and I bought it brand new. Hope that helps.
what year is the bike? and Love you're review best review ever man.
Andrew Rubinstein 2014 and thanks.
Loving the crocs 🐊🐊
great bike. massive leap in bikes from a cbr 125 to a cbr 600 rr but a good bike to get big bike experience on.
A beautiful bike. Very throughout review man :)
I don't get how everyone seems to be able to afford these things tho! haha! I've wanted one for years
Thanks for your help.
Is this the 2006 CBR600RR Repsol Edition? I don't recall hearing the year
my favourite bike in repsol....word of warning i had similar tyre valves and they wrecked the valves the added weight at speed weakens the rubber till they split. i would recommend you replace them with the standard black ones...
Sean Appleby Oh right. I've since changed the dice to blue piston caps which seem to be fine. I will keep an eye on them, much appreciated.
So whats the point of the nitrogen tank?
Better looking cowl headlights than 1000rr,Bmw 1000,gsxr.Nice video pal:)
how long have you been riding and wot was length on the 125 b4 u made the transition to your 600? like your vid most are from the states like to see uk vids as well.
+Mark Seals323 Thanks. I started in Oct 2013 on the 125 then passed my test in April 2014 when I transitioned to the 600RR. I rode about 3,000 miles on the 125. Hope that helps.
do you smell after riding because of the rear tail exhaust? +Sup3rSaiy3n
Nice bike, I have the same one in black, do you have a part number for the heated grips?
+bxutuber Sorry I don't. I just called my local Honda dealer CJ Ball. I bet if you call yours they will give you the part number.
2014 model? Got mine a few months ago, love it. Mine is the non ABS though.
I've had mine since 2016 and I love it...i have no plans on selling it ever!
I love my Repsol CBR....i can't ever see myself selling it. I've just ridden 14000km round Europe on it.
im sorry for asking this but can you actually get 56.5 mpg on that bike?? i've been thinking of getting one but everyone, (people who have one) keep telling that they can't go above 40 mpg...
Cause if you can actually get that mpg i need no more thinking i'll buy one!
That is one beautiful machine, well done in getting it.
Zooumberg Thank you.
***** You're welcome. I can't wait to get mine although as it's just a starter machine as I've not passed my test yet, I'll just get something cheap until I'm more experienced.
Yeah I had a 125 before this and rode a few thousand miles. It really helped my road craft and I would recommend building up experience before hand.
*****
The trouble with 125's is they're expensive for what you get. I was thinking of getting the 600 and doing some advanced lessons.
Zooumberg All bikes are expensive for what you get imo, however a 125's value does not depreciate very much. I did not lose much money on mine even after a winter and 3K miles. My mate has a CBF125, of which I will be reviewing soon and it only cost £2K. He has done over 5K miles and I think he would agree the road experience has been worth the money alone.
Advanced lessons might help but if you haven't any road craft what could they be helping you improve on? You would get more benefit from advanced riding lessons if you already had some miles behind you. Over here for example advanced rider courses are for riders that already have a fair amount of road craft so they can improve on their key weaknesses. Whether it be overtaking, cornering, slow speeds. If you're a novice however you will be quickly trying to become competent at all of these things from a base level, if that makes sense.
The truth is there is just no quick way of improving your road craft other than getting mileage behind you. The more mileage, the more experiences you gain and the more prepared you are for when you hop on other bikes. Just my thoughts on the subject. Hope it goes well for you.
Any need for re-mapping with the after market slip on?
Awesome bike brother! I have a question, where would I be able to purchase the R&G protectors? Im from Canada, any website I can go to? I have the 2015 model but i heard not much difference from 2013 to lastest
Adrian Badillo Hi, thanks for your comment. You should be able to order direct from their website: www.rg-racing.com/default.aspx?pageid=4 The usual shipping and charges will apply. If I were you I would purchase the more expensive non-drill protectors. I'm glad I did when I found out each fairing is roughly $700! The 2015 model is the 2013 model but with a 2015 registration plate. There are zero differences between the 2013, 2014 & 2015 models, just the colours, in case anyone asks you out and about. Have fun and Ride safe.
Lovely bike! Do you still have it?
you need "hello and welcome" in the intro
great review bro, question have you ever fallen off, how easy would you say it is to fall off?
Spirittism Thank you. I've never fallen off as such. I've dropped her while on her. Does that count as falling off? I think the bike does a good job in keeping you on the bike. I've had a tank slapper before that ended very quickly and I've slid up and down the seat due to jeans I wore but other than that it's pretty solid. The tank is quite large and provides ample room for you to grip her between your legs. Hope that helps.
@@Sup3rSaiy3n Tank slapper? but doesn't that come with an electronically controlled steering dampener?
Beautiful!
+Daniel Dini Thank you sir
i like the brake levers. can you say where did you buy them?
Erdal Keskin brake lever, the other is the clutch. They are from Performance parts and are called ASV levers. They are deemed 'unbreakable' but that's really due to how they work when you crash your bike. You can even change the colour of the adjusters!
everyones cbr of the 13-15 year has the hazards, passing switch and the hiss on it.. but mine doesn't hmm strange but great vid loved it :)
cbrad600 2013 That's very strange. What year is yours? I thought Hiss was standard on bikes bigger than CBR500R. Also strange that yours does not have hazards and passing switch.
***** mine is the same bike as yours just the hrc tri color
good review.. awesome bike.. super like it :)
Thank you, that means a lot.
+Sup3rSaiy3n ur most welcome :)
Gorgeous bike
great, thanks.
What are the CBR600RR’s like for a taller guy?? I’m 6ft 2 average build.... I’ve heard these are the most comfortable of the 600’s. Thanks
I’m 6ft and certainly fine on this one. Cant say the same for the older Fireblades. They are cramped.
The picture quality & clarity is superb, great job, maybe try to speak up a little bit more.
Jimmy G Thank you, I appreciate your feedback.
Where did you get the engine covers that look like they are part of the farings?
following
Love the review man! I will be picking one up soon! How much of a role does ABS play in your daily ride/commuting. I'm in NY and have an option of buying it without ABS (Black) with ABS (Red). There is a price difference of a grand... Which I could use to upgrade my gear and slip-on pipe...
Thanks.
PS. 2015 Model
+Kaha K Thanks man appreciate that. ABS is automatically on after about 5mph or so. If you have to use it then you've been going too fast or have not anticipated the situation well enough. It's nice that it is there and certainly makes the difference in stopping distance and stopping power, also means your wheel won't lock up and you won't skid down the road like you see many riders doing on fail videos. Most newer bikes like S1000RR, Gixxer 1000, R1 and ZX-10R all have ABS as standard. If you are able to sink the money on a 2015 model a grand should be neither here nor there. Imo it should come as standard on a bike this powerful. Yes you could spend the money on new gear or a new pipe but that money could get totally wasted if you were to, for instance, fail to stop in time. You're also in NY where the weather is very cold at present so even more or a reason to go for ABS rather than a slighter better sounding bike. Yes it does sound fantastic with an Akra etc but you can always get that later down the line, ABS you can't. You also won't look cool in your new gear if you're laid on your side on a road, scratch that maybe you would haha. Hope that helps, good luck with your decision.
Thanks
did you sell this bike back to CJ Ball?
Did you install the r&g frames sliders yourself if so ill like to see how you do the installation
No I had them pre-installed before I purchased the bike. They are the ones that connect to the engine too so take a bit of time.
Sup3rSaiy3n i see i couldn't install mine the bar that holds the abs control needs a bolt there to hold it in its place.
This is the most beautiful bike in the world to me.
Soooo you still got the bike?
how long did you take to ride on the 125 before getting bored and moving up to the 600?
I didn't get bored as such. I had planned to take my big test soon after the CBT but I wanted to get some road craft. If we're talking specifics then I bought the 125 in November 2013 then passed my test and bought the 600 the same day in May 2014. I rode 3,000 miles on the 125. Hope that helps.
Hi there.Ive got the same bike and was wondering do the front indicators stay on as running lights and or have you removed this and if so how do you do it?thanks
Hi. You're correct the front two stock indicators do stay on as running lights. I got the dealer to swap them out after a few months with Rizoma indicators and that stopped them being running lights. Hope that helps.
What is the NOS for?
Wow what an amazing bike 😎😎😎
What year is she
im thinking about purchasing a honda cbr 600rr 599cc as a begginers bike u think its a good bike for a begginer??
+Leo Rosado I went from a 125 to this and was fine but it's not really a beginner's bike. I would say a CBR500 is a beginner's bike. The 600RR has double the power of a 500 so you probably might not be used to it. It all depends what you are comfortable with. I would book a test ride to see if it is comfortable for you. Not all bikes ride the same.
It sounds like you're saying "or" 13,000 rpm or whatever, those numbers are ___ kw/nm etc "AT" ____ rpm. It's where in the rpms that power level is reached, not 'or'
Awesome!
Bike looks great. Thinking of trading my 2014 Street Triple R for a 2013 CBR600RR. It's the white, red, blue version. Do you still own it ?
I wouldn't. I have owned both and honestly you are going to miss the torque of the Street Triple, the power is actually very similar, and the suspension is miles better on the Street Triple R.
@@bigyoshi5716 Thanks for your information. Glad you replied to my comment. I was having second thought but I think it was karma that you replied. Cheers.
at the beginning it looks like you were missing somespokes
***** On both wheels?
is the exhaust slip on or full system?Awesome camera quality!
xGipas The Akrapovic is a slip on at £680, the full system which gets rid of the cat and slightly improves performance is £1,730. I may get the titanium pipes sepearatley one day but atmo there are other much more important upgrades to get. Such as power commander, galfer discs, rear sets etc.
What does power commander do ? fuel and stuff?Subbed cant wait next video with the best quality!
Where did you get your fairings drop website?
They came with the bike
RPM is a measurement of engine revolutions per minute or 'revs' its not a measurement of power.
+Julius Reed Cheers.
Hello mate , what is the nitro bottle for at the back of the bike , thanks and lovely looking bike.
ride easy
Lol. Thats for the suspension. Thanks.
What do you mean for the suspension , don't understand ?
Whatever it is why is it not stock ?
Please go into a little more detail , thanks mate
It is a remote reservoir for the rear shock suspension and it is stock: www.sportrider.com/sportbikes/2009-honda-cbr600rr-c-abs-future-indicator#page-2
what year?
This bike looks sooooooo awesome! I want one! But i've never ridden a motorcycle before... :(
I owned the 96 model CBR900RR. Was a great bike.
but was it your first bike?
John Hudson Probably not, if you want to ride a bike like Saiyan's 600RR then have a look at something like the Kawasaki Ninja 300 as your first bike, or even the CBR 125 depending on your height, hope that helps.
FuryRC i'm 5'9" with a 32"-34" inseam
John Hudson You should be fine with either, I can just flat foot a CBR 125 and I'm 5'7, inseam 30 inch so it looks like a normal/big sized bike when I'm on mine, I'd sit on one if I were you, my 6 foot friend at work made the bike look quite small! Haha, either way make sure your happy with the ergonomics before buying, hope that helps.
I have 2 things, its not great for tall riders, because the windscreen sets low, and if its the standard colors, the fairings looks really dull and plain.
Hello! Amazing bike with amazing exhaust!
One question about Licence Plate holder with led turn light.
Where i can find this Plate holder kit ? And brand name?
Андрей Шишмарев Hi. Thank you. Licence plate holder is by R & G.
Thank you, mate!
I wish people put year of bike in description.
2014 model
Looking to buy my very first Super Sport bike and I'm stuck between this and the 2015 Suzuki GSXR-750.. One of the main reason why I like this 600rr is the muffler under the seat. It gives the bike such a clean look and besides, I now drive a Honda Accord Coupe V6 6Speed (MT) which is amazingly fast and looks great as well. Would be nice to have this bike as well :) So my main draw back for not getting this bike is that I'm a big guy 6'ft 235lbs but in shape I must add lol... Hmmmm, decisions decisions, any ideas anyone?
VtecHondaGuy If you’re spending this kind of money I would test ride them both for an hour. That should help you decide.
@@Sup3rSaiy3n
Much thanks. I think this is a great idea and I'm going to take it and do just that... Thanks again.
Congrats man! Hondas are f*ing beautiful!
I totally want one too!
I'll let you know when I'm selling mine then ;)
what kind of heated grips are those?
+maomaniarocks They're Honda's official heated grips, about £300 with fitting.
This in a 1000cc my dream motorcycle
I must say I’m more of a fan of Harleys, but this is still a great looking bike!
Was it difficult or at the least quite strange, transitioning from a 125 to a 600cc bike?
+Ahmed Abdul It was, the first time I rode it back from the dealer. The only big bike I had ridden up to that point was a Honda Hornet 500cc. I had only ridden that bike four times - for the practical tests. After a couple of days though you get used to the increased power.
hi... great upgrades... can you please list them down??
+Nawaaz IcemAn Hi. I've got one better, allow me to show you...th-cam.com/video/ZqW5zQH7O6U/w-d-xo.html
Great video. I'm looking at getting one too. I here they are going to stop making them .😔
Thank you. Where'd you hear that mate?
Went into my local Honda centre this week. Something to do with new euro4 emisions and being too expensive to develope a new 600cc engine to conform to them.
Ooh interesting. Those damn Euro emissions have resulted in larger cats and uglier bottoms imo. Might be worth waiting for the new Fireblade? Unless you prefer the look of the 600.
Sup3rSaiy3n it's been in all the magazines. Quite a few bikes will be killed off because of it, and when the Euro 5 is out in 2020 the rules will be more strict.
No riding :( also, MPG value is assumed it is ridden in a 'good' manner on high gears
