HONDA CBF600N (2010-2011) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2004, the Japanese maker released the Honda CBF600N, a naked middleweight machine manufactured until 2007 as the first generation. The CBF family comprised the nude model and the half-faired CBF600S version with a front fairing and headlamp block.

Both models were powered by a 599cc four-cylinder Honda Hornet-based engine and featured an inspiring look that appealed to returning riders, new riders, and women. The engine and transmission were optimized for smooth power delivery.

The second generation was manufactured from 2008 to 2013 and powered by a completely new detuned CBR600RR engine fitted with a Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system, providing smooth power, precise throttle response, and improved fuel efficiency.

The 2011 Honda CBF600N came in the same package as the previous model without any changes and is available in Pearl Cool White, Dragon Green Metallic, and Pearl Nightstar Black color schemes.

The braking performance was unchanged and still featured two 296 mm discs with two-piston calipers as front stopping power, paired with a single-piston caliper and a 240 mm disc, taking care of the rear wheel braking performance.

Also, the suspension didn't feature any changes and packed the same 41 mm telescopic fork on the front end and the same seve-way preload-adjustable shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent handling capabilities.

As for power, the 2011 Honda CBF600N, with its 599cc liquid-cooled four-cylinder fuel-injected engine, delivered an output power of 76 hp at 10,500 rpm and 58 Nm (44 lb-ft) of torque at 8,000 rpm.
