RE: Easy question
go to http://www.stephygee.com/ look at the bottom left and click on the 03-04 CBR600RR. That will give you the shop manual for it, you have to order the owners manual from Honda for $16.

If any one would come across a manual on e-bay or something let me no. I never got a manual or a tool kit with my 04 600RR.

RE: Easy question
You should take the owner’s manual out... if you ride in all types of weather. The area under the seat is not water resistant at all. I take my tool kit out often and coat everything with WD40 to help keep the tools from rusting. My owner’s manual is here right beside my monitor.

I looked in the manual and did what it said to do but nothing happened . I think one or both of the buttons is broken.
I looked in the manual and did what it said to do but nothing happened . I think one or both of the buttons is broken.
I'll start with a story of the series of events that led to me repairing my gauge cluster buttons...
After washing my bike, I was drying it with a towel and rubbed across the gauge cluster buttons and fond I pulled the rubber buttons out of the setting. Well I pushed them back in and discovered I broke the buttons; it looked like a piece was missing from the inner region where the button pushes down. No big deal, I can live without that...the clock was still adjusted right, except I couldn't set it any more so it was an hour off since "fall back."
I read a thread a long time ago that a few other people had that same thing happen and the dealer had to replace the whole gauge cluster, because of the faulty design. Well, I didn't want to have to do without my bike for such a lame reason, so I've been riding with it "broke" for over a year now.
Today I decided to take a closer look at my button dilemma and I found a white plastic piece lying inside the button holes. I reached in with hemostats, tried piercing it with a pin and I couldn't grab it no matter how hard I tried. Being as persistent as I am I decided to feel under the cluster and felt screws..."that must mean it comes apart," I thought "unless it's glued together." So there I am removing the front fairing, unplugging the wiring harness and removing the cluster from the mount. Well I'll be damned if that bitch doesn't come apart and I placed the plastic piece back where it belongs and I now have a bona fide, fully functional gauge cluster!!!
I only share this discovery in hopes that it will help someone else with a button dilemma...
