Hi All,
This is my first post on the forum... so a quick introduction is called for.. name is poncho, and I run a small race team in India, with 2 600cc bikes. Last year i ran a 05zx6r, and wanted to upgrade to a CBR600rr 07 for this year, unfortunetly I ran short of funds and was actually not gonna be able to run the season at all...
While shopping for the cheapest ride I could find. I found a very interesting bike called "CBR600RR HRC" , its totally a race bike from factory with no street legal parts on it :-) so i bought it, after some examination of the bike, I found that it didnt even a fan behind the radiator..
The bike is brand new still in honda factory crate.. its has all black with no headlights and stuff...

From External Examination of the bike this is what I have found -
1. No switchgear except engine kill button
2. No Key switches
3.Front disc fully floating 5mm
4.Front Fork looks stock but has been revalved and sprung
5. Stock Radiator but no Fan
6. Stock Exhaust but no cat or baffles
7. Rear suspension looks stock but revalved and sprung
8. Engine is supposed to be blueprinted and running some cam gears
9. Grear box running close ratio, but no idea what the ratios are!!
10. Rear suspension linkage is different
11 Has stock black painted fairings, and holes where the lights are supposed to be...

Does any one know what it is that i have bought?? Anyone has any tips for me...

 

Any pics?

 

Nope the bike was a in a bonded area for export, so couldn't take any pics... but looks like a stock CBR600RR just stripped down.. The bike is brand new and still in the crate...

 

I would get in touch with Honda directly and see if you can get any kind of information on it from them. I've personally never heard of/seen an HRC 600RR before.

 

Yeah i would try to contact Honda! But yeah if you find anything out let us know i would be interested in something like that. How much did it cost?

 

it costed me singapore $ 12,000/- I added a HRC Radiation and few other bits it all set me back 16,000/- total now am working of indian customs... should land the bike in india by June 1st week. Got my first race June 23/24... The guys I am in touch with have 2 more in Japan but 2007 models asking 18.000 each...

Any one got any email ids for honda...

Just got this mail looks like a lot of setup work for me-


Hi,

I am in the IOM until 11/06/07 for the centenary IOM TT races and helping a racer called Roy Richardson. I have very limited access to the internet and cannot send or receive emails every day... soI am sorry for the delay in replying!

The bike you have purchase is the HRC kit race bike that Honda produceand is a stripped down std bike, with some HRC parts fitted including kit loom and ecu, fork internals, kit discs, etc. The engine also has kit cams, valve springs. The head is std and has no gas flowing or head skimming.

This bike needs a race exhaust, kit radiator (which you have)and tuning, but thatsall that you need to have a very competetive race bike.

If you need anything else, contact me.
