Default What CBR really mean??
Dear all, anyone knows what CBR really stands for? Or is there no meaning in it? HONDA just pick it because it sounds good? There must be a history in everything evolved?

Very nice try, but it's definitely "Captain Bed Rocker".

Well it started as CB so probably R has something to do with racing Cool bike racer? Idk, my attempt at being clever fell through so I'll +1 the chicken bacon ranch, or Cheddar Bacon Ranch huh huh?

I think CB was just the thing honda used that meant inline cylinders, And the R was the code for 4..... Heck idk, I'm probably way wrong...

here's a few good ones you could say

Championship Bike Replica <---- my fav
Constantly Blowing Rectifiers
curvy back roads

I like the accuracy of "constantly blowing rectifiers". lol..

Definitely not "chicken bacon ranch". Although tasty.... I just don't think so.
Possibly "chicken broccoli ramen", tho.
