2024-2026 CBR600RR Oil Starvation Issue: Honda's Manufacturing Defect Explained

Honda's issued a recall on the current-generation CBR600RR for a cylinder surface defect that can cause oil starvation under load. If you own a 2024-2026 model, this isn't a software patch—it's an engine block issue that needs dealer attention. Get ahead of it before track days or long rides expose the problem.
