The 600's were a bit different than the 1000F 'Cane. The 1000F got a bunch of revisions in '89, and I've never seen one in the states that I can remember.
Kinda like the '92 model year. I've never seen one of those in the states, either.

The Hurricane 1000 was only made in 1987 and 1988. Honda went with the CBR name from 1989 and up.
Really the same bike just different name.
