Honda CBR600RR (2007-2020) — Maintenance Specs

The CBR600RR was Honda's 599 cc inline-four supersport, produced 2007-2020 with only minor updates after the 2009 ABS option and the 2013 restyle. The RA ABS version documented by the 2018 US owner's manual covers the final 2013-2020 generation. Maintenance is more involved than on the 500 twins: iridium DENSO VUH27D plugs with fixed gaps, twin 320 mm front discs, a 525HV chain with 30-40 mm slack and 2.8 L of 10W-30 oil with the filter. Valve clearance figures are dealer service-manual data and are not printed in the owner's manual. Production ended in 2020, and Honda's MotoPub portal keeps the 2018 manual as the last official word on US-market service data.
