HONDACBR900RR Fireblade 1996 - 1999

　　In 1992, Honda released the first generation of the CBR900RR, also known as the Fireblade in some countries, a 900cc sports motorcycle part of the CBR series and the first large-displacement model that featured the "RR" suffix.

　　In 1997, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CBR900RR, a sports machine in its third generation that came with only graphics and color changes, but also benefitted from the major revision received by the 1996 model.

　　In 1999, Honda launched the CBR900RR, which didn't feature any changes but benefitted from the last update brought upon by the 1998 model that received subtle refinements in the chassis department.

　　Some of the improvements included a stiffer frame more like the original one, larger brake discs on the front with larger calipers that improved braking performance and raised footpegs that enhanced ergonomics.

　　Also, the engine was revised with new internal parts for reduced friction and weight, and the cylinders got an aluminum treatment for less friction and new pistons. It also received a larger radiator and a new stainless steel exhaust header.

　　In the performance department, the Honda CBR900RR had its soul brought to life by a 919cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fitted with four Keihin CV carburetors and delivered an output power of 130 hp at 10,500 rpm and 93 Nm (68 lb-ft) of torque available at 10,000 rpm.
