Hi all Sorry to be a nusiance again.I have done searches and asked questions and i have found a lot of info about model differences etc But how can i tell an rr6 from an rr7? Is there a difference in chassis no? eg. you can find an rr6 registered 07.but how do itell for sure if it is rr6 or rr7? I know an rr7 is supposed to have a black swingarm as an rr6 should have silver but i've seen 06 reg bikes with black swing arm? Also when it comes to repsol model , 07 is to have a silver chassis and swing arm ? But is a way to tell for sure? different chassis no? Thanks in advance
According to Lings Honda, the chassis numbers for UK bikes are as follows: RR6: JH2SC57A*6M6M200001-6M299999 RR7: JH2SC57A*7M7M300001-7M399999
As far as I am aware there are no differences between the RR6 and the RR7 models apart from colour schemes. There was not a Repsol in RR6 models, Repsols I believe were made in odd number years ie 05 07 etc. My RR6 has a black swing arm. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the replies guys.As you can guess im still looking for a bike . Have continued researching and i notice in pics that reopsl and HRC rr7 have a showa sticker on the front fork legs? Is this a different unit to other rr6/rr7 bikes ? Thanks for your patience
Cosmetic changes between 06 to 07 . The later ones don't handle any better or go faster than the early ones.
The RR6 and RR7 have absolutely no differences except paint scheme's. If buying just ask the owner to check the V5.
I have an 07 Repsol, which has a black frame and silver swingarm. When I did my research I initially thought they all came with a silver frame, but Honda confirmed this wasn't the case. The only real way is to tell via the vin number. That said if it's a 1000rr, there really isn't much difference you would notice unless you started racing them on the track.
I know about the repsol having a silver frame and i have seen many with black frame too but i noticed in pics of rr6 and rr7 that repsol and the HRC coloured bikes have a showa sticker on the front fork legs and on the back shock but i dont see any sticker on the other e.g black and black/red etc....just wondering if there was any difference in the suspension units? or are they all the same.I would have thought they would be the same
