The white and gray unit had a wing and the word "HONDA" on the gas tank; but on the black and red unit the tank had a silver "CBR" logo. The serial number began JH2PC230*LM000004 | The CBR600F'90 was sold in 1990 in one of two color schemes: Pearl Crystal White with Blitz Gray Metallic or Black with Monza Red.

For the 600's first makeover, Honda focused its attention on the engine. Revised porting and a new stainless steel exhaust system allowed the engine to breathe more easily, while altered cam timing, reconfigured pistons and combustion chambers, a slightly higher compression ratio and new ignition and carb settings helped make best use of the air/fuel mix. These carefully orchestrated engine changes yielded 10 more horsepower, making the CBR600F that much harder to catch on the street and on the track. | |||
