While dolphins are in fact also whales, I'll keep them out of the equation here and just focus on species that actually have 'whale' in their common English name. Though even then you'd come to no specific species whose name starts with an 'R' but has a dorsal fin. Atlantic northern, Pacific northern and Southern right whales - who don't have dorsal fins! - also technically speaking don't have a name that truly starts with an r. So all in all, there are none ;) But, when looking at the greater good, there is the family of the Rorquals, or streamlined baleen whales. These all do have dorsal fins, and include familiar faces like the Blue, Minke and Humpback whale.
