Developed by the HRC race department, the track-ready CBR600RR gets a new ECU, a larger radiator, a new exhaust, larger brake discs and a different suspension setup – and sheds a bit of weight by losing the mirrors, lights and numberplate.

The limited edition machine is ready made for Superstock/Supersport competition, but if you want to take one racing, you better talk to your dealer. They’ll have to request one from Honda – and that’s only if they’re allowed to sell HRC kit in the first place. You’ve got a bit of time though, as they won’t be available until the start of 2021. No news on pricing just yet, but chances it’ll be a good chunk on top of the ten (and a bit) grand of the standard machine.
