The Honda CBR900RR, also known as the Fireblade,
is a large displacement sport bike introduced in 1992 by Honda. It was
the first of the Honda Fireblade models and was designed by Tadao Baba.
The
CBR900RR was introduced in 1992 and was fitted with an 893 cc (54.5 cu
in) inline-four engine. When introduced, it set a precedent for light
weight in the super bike class. At 453 lb (205 kg) with a full tank of
gas, the CBR900RR was just 4 lb (2 kg) heavier than Honda's own
CBR600F2, and 76 lb (34 kg) lighter than the next-lightest open-class
machine at the time, the Yamaha FZR1000. Minor changes to the 1994 model
included an improved shift drum to cure notchy shifting, and steadier
mirrors.

In a move to refine the CBR900RR's
handling traits on bumpy roads, the 1995 model's suspension was upgraded
with revised spring and damping rates, and a compression adjuster was
added to the front fork. More aggressive bodywork incorporated a "cut
reflector" design headlight and fewer of the CBR's unique fairing holes.
Slimmer and firmer footpegs were patterned after the RC45 and a shift
linkage replaced the original model's backward pedal. A new instrument
panel included an electronic speedometer that measured speed from the
countershaft sprocket. The only engine change in 1995 was the
replacement of the aluminum valve cover with a magnesium piece.
