- Welcome to Hasse's Suzuki RF900R
- Homepage!
This beautiful 1998 RF900R became mine
in October 1998. Since then it has been
sitting in the garage waiting for spring.
On April 9th 1999 I took it out
for a first spin.
+7C and a nice sun. What a bike!
The powerband is WIDE! 80% of the
torque
is available from 3500 rpm and
up. Acceleration
is AWESOME! I have seen figures
down to 2,5 seconds
from 0-100 km/h (Swedish magazine
Superbike).
The design of the bike is art itself.
I could have
bought the bike just to sit and
look at it. For more
pictures please enter the photogallery
below.
The RF was built during the
years
1994 to 1998. It has a powerful
937cc
in-line four which produces
135 hp
and 102Nm of torque in the open
version.

The stock Dunlop rear tire was almost gone at
6000 km so I replaced it with the Pirelli MTR24 180/55-17.
What a difference in tire life! At 12000
km the tire has more than half of it´s thread left. The stock front
tire hasn´t been changed yet but I will probably go for the MTR when
the time comes because it has served me so well at the back.
I bought the MDI Flip-up windscreen basically
to protect my chest from the icy winds here in Sweden. It works great for
that but the wind hits me in the head instead so I´m thinking of
going back to the stock size. Next to order is a tankbra and a workshop
manual. If anyone has one for sale or know where to get one please contact
me.
