A safety message alerts you to potential hazards that could hurt you or
others. Each safety message is preceded by a safety alert symbol and
one of three words, DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These mean:
You WILL be KILLED or SERIOUSLY HURT
if you don’t follow instructions.
You CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY HURT
if you don’t follow instructions.
You CAN be HURT if you don’t follow
instructions.
Each message tells you what the hazard is, what can happen and what you
can do to avoid or reduce injury.
Damage Prevention Messages
You will also see other important messages that are preceded by the word
NOTICE.
This word means:
Your HRC CBR600RR or other property can be
damaged if you don’t follow instructions.
The purpose of these messages is to help prevent damage to your HRC
CBR600RR, other property, or the environment.

About the Racing Kit
Engine Starting
If you turn the engine stop switch ON while the engine is running, the ECU cannot detect the atmospheric pressure correctly.
So, turn the engine stop switch ON and wait more than 0.2 seconds before starting the engine with the starter motor and/or pushing.
Do not do the following operations:
–Turn the engine stop switch ON while the starter switch is ON.
–Turn the engine stop switch ON while pushing the vehicle.
–Turn the engine stop switch from OFF to ON while running the vehicle.
If you do any of the "once stop the crankshaft rev and" does not make sense and turn the engine stop switch from OFF to ON, then start the engine with the spec-
ified procedure.
Engine Idle Speed
•The CBR600RR’s idle speed is automatically adjusted by the IACV (Idle Air Control Valve). So idle speed cannot be adjusted manually like the 2006 CBR600RR.
For racing use, engine idle speed can be adjusted using the optional PGM-FI Setting Tool.
Adjustable range is between the 1,400 – 3,000 min-1 (rpm) by 200 min-1 (rpm) increments.
The adjusted idle speed differs from real engine idle speed because of the engine oil, exhaust system and/or other vehicle conditions.
•For adjustment, use the HRC PGM-FI Setting Tool CD-ROM and Serial Interface Unit. For adjustment procedure, refer to PGM-FI Setting Manual included in the
CD-ROM.
Steering Damper
When using the racing kit wire harness, the standard steering damper is not operated (the damper damping is locked in the softest position).
We recommended using the steering damper included in the racing kit or using a commercially available manual steering damper.
