HONDA CBR600F4i (2005-2006) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2006, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer released the Honda CBR600F4i, a sports motorcycle part of the CBR series in Honda's range that had its debut in 2001. The 2006 model was in its last year of production and came in the same package as its siblings.

Over the years, the bike didn't feature any visual and technical modifications, but one significant update was brought by the 2001 model when the designation changed from F4 to F4i and introduced the Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system.

The introduction of the new fuel injection system allowed for more precise fuel metering and delivery over a wider rpm range, better throttle response, and reduced emissions.

The CBR600F4i was dressed in a bodywork with a racy look that provided a three percent reduction in drag force, a front cowl with a dual headlight that used an H7 bulb instead of the H4 used by the previous F4 models, and the mirrors were repositioned higher and closer to the rider.

The model was built around a twin-spar aluminum frame and housed a revised suspension that included a 43 mm fully-adjustable cartridge-type fork on the front and a fully-adjustable gas-charged Pro-Link shock absorber on the rear.

In the braking department, the CBR600F4i packed two 296 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and one 220 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel for optimum stopping power.

As for power, the 2006 Honda CBR600F4i had at its core a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 110 hp at 12,500 rpm and 65 Nm (48 lb-ft) of torque at 10,500 rpm.
