    2011 Honda CBR600F

    Nice..... looks like a faired version of the 600 hornet with a new instrument cluster. I was praying Honda would make a new light & comfortable sports bike like the cbr600F4i for my next ride.

    I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.

    They've tried to give it that VFR1200 look - which sucks btw.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Agreed, it doesn't work on this 600 but I don't mind it on the VFR1200, could have been better but I could live with it... But NOT the price!

    It'll be discounted by 5 grand in 2 years time. Don't sweat it.

    How is a CBR600 tuned for the real world an epic fail?
    You do realise the ergonomics are what the CBR600F4i was, right? It's not like they're inventing anything new. They were popular bikes and it seems logical to have a commuter friendly mid-range 4cyl sports bike - especially one that is and was fairly popular. I sure as shit would prefer this (and have, re. CBR600F4i) over an out and out screamer with clipons below the triple tree for an every day bike.

    Having ridden the 2010 Hornet 600 I am suitably imperssed with the amount of punch it has for a mid-range bike, it has great useable torque for the real world.

    Until you ride a Street Triple. Then you get back on the Hornet and wonder why Honda bothered making such a flash 400.

    I've ridden a Street Triple a number of times and later the Street Triple R, it's not for me. A great bike with a beautiful engine but I couldn't gel with it.
    I personally think the torque is more than adequate for a 600 inline four motorcycle, it was actually quite impressive which was echoed through other riders (some with 990SMs, so know a thing or two about torque). If the Hornet 600 is 12,495 I can't see the faired version being more than a few grand higher so it would still be quite desireable. The Street Triple's extra essence is reflected in its price.

    But, that's the beauty of choice, something for everyone out there.

    I like it, and I'd consider buying it.

    Had to laugh when they said it only has 100 bhp. Plenty enough for me!
