Built around Honda's sport motorcycle platform, the 2006 Honda CBR 600 RR features a 599 cc (36.6 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0 x 42.5 mm (2.6 x 1.7 inches) with a 12.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the CBR 600 RR measures 163.7 kg (361 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,389 mm (54.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 18.16-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
