Obviously the beauty department at Honda peaked with the last of the CBR1000F's.

I agree you will have to be a contortionist to ride it but it looks 1000% better than that ridiculous looking VFR 1200. They should have bought out a VFR 1000 and a Blackbird 1300. The best of both worlds.

I think I would prefer a new one of these old girls though ...
I had a std VF1000 for years...ripper Honda's they were in the day , that pic brings back great memories ..
