1994 Honda CBR900RR Fireblade, 893cc. Registration number L58 GAJ (non transferrable). Frame number SC28 225070. Engine number SC28E 2250708.
The first generation CBR900RR was introduced in 1992 with an 893 cc inline-four engine. It set a precedent for lightweight in the superbike class, being much lighter than other large-displacement bikes of the time. With the objective of equaling the acceleration of competitors’ flagship sport bikes, Honda increased the stroke of its inline 4-cylinder 750 cc engine and thus raised displacement to 893cc. Complementing its power performance was the bike's dry weight of just 185 kg, wheelbase of 1,405 mm, and a body almost identical to that of the advanced research stage model. At 205 kg wet weight, the next-lightest over-750cc machine, the Yamaha FZR1000, was heavier by 34 kg.
Changes for the 1994 model comprise a new shift-drum to improve notchy gear shifts.
GAJ has been owned by our vendor since 2012 and in that time the mileage has risen from 20,565 to the last MOT in 2017 at 25,175 when he stopped riding it due to mobility issues.
Several years ago he had Clive of Rapier Paints in Hull to custom airbrush the fairing and tank with this dragon design. In 2017 he had the current handlebars and light unit fitted, retaining most parts apart from the clip ons and top yoke (buyers should satisfy themselves to the components). When collected from our client the engine fired up with ease and sounded fine but further recommissioning is advised.
