The CBR900RR was introduced in 1992 and was fitted with an 893 cc (54.5 cu in) inline-4 engine. When introduced, it set a precedent for light weight in the super bike class. At 453 lb (205 kg) with a full tank of gas, the CBR900RR was just 4 lb (1.8 kg) heavier than Honda's own CBR600F2, and 76 lb (34 kg) lighter than the next-lightest open-class machine at the time, the Yamaha FZR1000. Minor changes to the '94 model included an improved shift drum to cure notchy shifting, and steadier mirrors.
