I'm old school, so I like naked bikes myself. So, I found these pics while sufin the net of a 2007 CBF1000F- a bike I had never even heard of. I'd jump on this bike much quicker than I would on the 919. What do you guys think. Would this bike sell in the US?

I think definitely ! Sharp bike Like the color.
It looks naked similar to the Suzuki Bandit, and mine except mine wasn't made that way.....

I wonder how the comfort fit is, compared to the CBR ?
It looks like the handle bars are raised and set back alittle, may be even more comfortable..

 

If I was looking for a new bike, that certainly would be considered. What country is this sold in? I too like the color, but would also like some graphics on it, it's a little too plain for me.

 

Hey guys

You can find it in europe. I saw a french magazine here in Quebec with the rodatest on it, apparently in france this the bike that honda sells the most. If we are lucky we might get it here, we hace the yamaha fz1 so if honda wants to steel somes sales here they might import it,I will keep an eye and let you know, picturesI have seen is blue red and yellow.

Dragon 64

 

wrong place for new message lol

 

It's not bad at all but I like the lines on the 919's tank better.

 

They sell these bikes in Sweden, i was about to bye one myself...maybe in the future.

You can adjust the heightof the sadle...adjust the height of the windshield and also adjust the handlebars ahead and back. So i thinkthis bike is a good alternative toour old cbr's in good driving comfortexcept for the lack of power, in sweden 100 horsepowers.It has ABS as standard and you can also bye matching saddlebags to it.
Never driven one but maybe i'll tryone nextsummer.

The bike has been on the european market since 2006, and is abig hit amongthe touringpeopleover here!

 

Looks similair to the Bandit, and Suzuki cannot meet demand in Australia with that bike atm.

 

I like this bike too. It's sold as the CBF1000 in the UK. De-tuned CBR1000RR motor ( less hp,wider torque spread).

At our annual bike show in birmingham - Honda released this bike fully faired with ABS.

I took one for a test ride a few months back. Riding position is more sat up than the CBR1000F.

Verygood comfort over the 4 hours I rode it in one day.

Only issue I can see is the small back tyre - it's the size of the pre 89 CBR1000F ( 150 I think )
