Motorcycle specifications HondaCBR 900 RR FIREBLADE 1994 Detailed review
introduced in '92, the CBR 900 RR has been the benchmark sports bike since its introduction to the market. Nothing spectacular, just a few minor cosmetic tweaks. As '94 brought competition from the new Kawasaki ZX-9R and Suzuki 900 RF, Honda retaliated by modernizing the Fireblade a little. Modifications included a new fork head, higher and wider to improve protection, a revised double headlamp protected by a Plexiglas lens, new decals, an aluminum silencer and a fork with more adjustment possibilities.
So, no radical changes for the Fireblade. Powerful but not extravagant, the mill remains unchanged, and on this point, we prefer the more spectacular Suzuki engine. The winged manufacturer's sports bike might have feared the arrival of the 900 Ninja. While the Kawa is more powerful and quite efficient, with a slightly less tiring riding position, it can't compete with the Honda, which is much lighter and livelier.
But the RR doesn't intend to let itself be fooled that easily. It remains the best of the big sportbikes, with great potential that makes you want to keep pushing your limits.
When it comes to combining sport and road, the ZX-9R fares a little better. The 900 CBR is indeed rather tiring to ride over long distances (but that's not what it's made for), and its protection fades after 160 km/h. On the truly sporting terrain, however, the CBR outshines the rest. It offers its rider intense riding pleasure, driven by insolent ease, lightness and agility. If you're looking for something better, start looking at Superbikes.
