Back in June 9, 2008, Honda revealed a Cbr600rr prototype that featured an all new braking system branded as Combined ABS which integrates combined braking, anti-lock braking, and brake-by-wire systems. Combined ABS uses a computer control unit to ensure the correct balance of front and rear brake use and also controls when the ABS should engage. The system is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible by delaying the engagement of the ABS until the last possible moment.

On September 5, 2008, Honda introduced a revised CBR600RR for the 2009 model year. Following the “Combined ABS” prototype, the new CBR600RR will have an available option of “Combined ABS”. Other changes include updates to the engine which improved torque from 8000 rpm to 12000 rpm, improved fairings that enhance stability and reduce noise emission levels, and new color schemes which were designed to attract a wider range of riders. Although all of these changes involved the addition of some materials, the overall weight of the 2009 CBR600RR remains the same as the 2008 model. This was achieved through weight savings in the engine, exhaust, and chassis and continues to remain the lightest bike in the super sport class.

For 2009, Honda also offers three more wild colors in an attempt to attract a wider range of buyers. There is the green, red, white and blue, and the new tribal white version.

Alright guys, peace!
