'93 Cbr900rr - Low Miles, Showroom Stock Survivor on 2040-motos
Honda CBR tech info
Honda CBR description
If you're reading this, you likely already know what an iconic motorcycle this is. If you don't, here's a little wikipedia education:
The CBR900RR was introduced in 1992 with an 893 cc (54.5 cu in) inline-four engine and set a precedent for light weight in the super bike class. At 453 lb (205 kg) with a full fuel tank, 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.
-------------------------------------------------------
So basically this bike started the light-weight revolution that we're still enjoying today. It was almost as light as a 600 back then and frankly still feels almost as light as one now. It's very compact for a liter bike and the 16 inch front tire makes it handle very light and precise. I've ridden and raced many motorcycles, and few have put a grin on my face like this one does!
This particular bike is a survivor. It's got less than 6,000 miles and has never been molested in any way as far as I can tell. The bike starts up and purrs like it just rolled off the showroom floor. The bodywork is all there and in excellent condition. The only flaw I've been able to find is a ding in the original pipe that the previous owner said was a result of a rake falling over on it in the garage. It's believable as the bike is in beautiful shape besides that minor imperfection. You can find the usual minor nicks and such that you get with a 20-yr-old bike, but honestly this thing is in amazing shape. It's got the original turn signals, reflectors, windscreen, etc. The only aftermarket part that I can find is the Lockhart-phillips tank cover. And no, it's not covering up any dents, it's just to stop belt buckles from scratching that tank.
I put a new front Bridgestone tire on it this spring, and put maybe 200 miles on it. The rear tire was in excellent condition and didn't need replacement. I cleaned the carb thoroughly, and really haven't had to do anything else with it. It rides great and really does feel like it just rolled off the showroom floor. You're not likely going to find a more original example of one of the most iconic bikes produced in the past 20 year. VIN number shows that this is also a very low production number as it's number 1726 produced which is very low for the first year in production! This belongs in a museum, not in my barn!!
I will be driving back east later in September, and may be able to deliver the bike (for a small fee) somewhere between Denver and Virginia if you happen to be along the way.
