HONDA CBF1000 (2006-2007) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2007, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CBF1000, a sport-touring motorcycle manufactured from 2006 to 2018, powered by a 998cc four-cylinder engine based on the CBR1000RR Fireblade powerplant.

The Honda CBF1000 was part of the CBF series and featured a steel frame based on the one used by the CBF600 model. The CBF1000 was manufactured by Honda Italia S.p.A and was first available in March 2006, mainly for the European market.

The bike came with the same package as its predecessor, with no changes whatsoever. It packed a Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system, an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) as an option, a combined half-fairing as standard, and an adjustable handlebar, seat, and windscreen.

As standard features, the bike packed a half-fairing with an adjustable windshield, a steel frame, a dual seat with passenger grab handles, a four-into-two exhaust system, and cast aluminum wheels.

For suspension, the bike featured a 41 mm adjustable telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable HMAS gas-charged shock absorber on the rear that provided optimum suspension performance and handling.

In the braking department, the bike packed two 296 mm floating discs with two-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 240 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel that offered strong stopping power.

As for the power figures, the 2007 Honda CBF1000 had its soul brought to life by a 998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 102 hp at 8,000 rpm and 97 Nm (72 lb-ft) of torque available at 6,500 rpm.
