Well i have no owners manual or anything for my bike 92 CBR600F2 (its comming in the mail) and well i am wondering a few things about it.

does it use 91 octane fuel?
what are the stock plugs?
what RPM should i shift at? have been between 3-5k depending on trafic

 

just use regular gas hmm 89 oct. i believe

my repair book (clymers) says Spark plugs NGK CR9EH9 and/or NIPPONDENSO U27FER9
gapping of .8 - .9 mm or .03 - .04in
torque too 12n-m or 9 ft-pds

and shift the bitch when it screams lol

no just shift it when it feels right but dont shift it a like 10,000 rpm every time you shift but sometimes crank on it very fun....

hope this helps

 

well my manual has still not come and my oil should be changed so how much does it take? same with the tranny fluid. also does honda make a special tranny fluid for bikes?

 

The engine oil is the transmission fluid. I just run Casterol 10w-40. just search around for any oil info. I can't remember what the capacity is.

 

These bikes have what's called a "wet clutch" which means the engine oil is also the gear and trans oil...A full oil change will take just over three and a half qts.

thanks.

 

Are you sure you are able to use 89 unleaded? because i ran some in mine and it started to run a little weird. That and i have heard from alot of my friends who have bikes that you want to run only 87 unleaded in the bike. Can someone clarify this for me.

 

I only run 92 high octane...Predetonation is one of the worst things that can happen in a combustion chamber...Having the fuel ignite when it's not supposed to will eventually take its toll...

My manual (Clymer) says to use SAE 10W-40 SF or SG. Make sure it's motorcycle specific, though as it lubricates the transmission gears as well. Capacity is:

3.38 qt (3.2L) --- Oil change only
3.70 qt (3.5L) ---Oil and filter change

 

OK fuel debate.... right from Clymers Honda Repair book take it as you want too

"All CB600f2 engines are designed to use gasoline that has a pump octane number (R+M)/2 of 86 or higher or a gasoline with a research octane number of 91 or higher"

I use regular gas not mid grade or premium. and I drive the bike like I stole it and I got 53000kms on it and so far no problems with regular gas .. If you do not want to\ use regular go to premium cause mid grade is just a waste of money.. just my 2 cents
