    CBR 954 with CBR 900 stated on VIN tag???????

    I just bought an '03' CBR 954RR, I just noticed that it says CBR 900 on the vin tag on the frame. Is this just because it is in the 900cc category or did I get suckered into buying a 900 instead of a 954.


    Thanks, Natertot

    LOL, you can relax! it's a954. I had the same thing with my 929. the salesman explained to me that for some reason honda refers to it as a cbr 900 in all of it's documentation. As a matter of fact there was a barcode sticker under my passenger seat that said CBR900. your tail light and swing arm should be dead give aways if you search for pics on the net. the 900 looks quite different  with its wind screen "cage"style brace, and 16 inch rear wheel. The 929 and 954 are closer to each other. but the swing arm and tail light are the dead tells.

    Excellent, thanks for the info. This is my first inline 4 sportbike and I love it. I was really scratching my head there for a while over this whole CBR 900 on the Vin tag deal. I am used to riding buells"never going back again" Thanks again hubbard2

    Just to correct hubbard, the 900rr came with a 17inch rear wheel and a 16inch front. =P

    Just to add a bit of no need to know info, in Europe they don't use 929 or 954 as names for the bikes they use SC44 for the 929 and I believe SC54 for the 954. They call them Fireblades then use the SC number to tell you which one.
