What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level wet weight comparison, the Honda CBR 900 RR is heavier than about 61.7% of 77 Honda sport bikes with compatible weight data.
A full tank is not weightless: the 4.76 US gal (18 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 29.6 lb (13.4 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Honda curb-weight specification.
Weight is not identical across every model year in this page. Use the year-specific section rather than assuming one figure applies to every CBR 900 RR.
The calculated power-to-weight figure is 27.93 hp per 100 lb across years with compatible data. It shows how much engine output is available relative to the bike’s mass.
