I believe it to remove the standard flat spot on the NC30 so would be pointless on a CBR, I also have it on good authority that it doesn't remove the flat spot at all just masks it.

It also allows the slides to lift more quickly giving slightly faster throttle response.

FWIW I've never noticed much difference.

Graeme says it is no longer recommended so I wouldn't bother.
