HONDACBF600S 2005 - 2006

　　The CBF600S was first released in 2004 as a sport-touring machine that replaced the Honda CB500, which was no longer compliant with European emission standards. The bike was powered by a Hornet-based engine and featured a safe and inspiring appearance.

　　In the CBF family were two models, the CBF600N naked machine and the CBF600S half-faired bike that packed an additional front fairing with a small windshield for better wind protection and dual headlights instead of a single unit on the naked model.

　　Both models met EURO2 emission standards, while Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) was optional. The model that featured the optional ABS braking system also came with a center stand.

　　In 2006, the maker launched the Honda CBF600S, a sport-touring machine in its third year of production. It didn't bring any changes and featured the exact technical and visual specifications as the previous models.

　　A 41 mm telescopic fork handled the front suspension, while the stopping power was achieved by two 296 mm discs mounted on the six-spoke cast aluminum wheels, engaged by two dual-piston calipers.

　　On the rear end, the CBF600S packed a seven-way spring preload-adjustable shock absorber, taking care of the rear suspension, while a single-piston caliper with a 240 mm disc handled the braking power.

　　As for power, the 2006 Honda CBF600S delivered an output power of 76 hp at 10,500 rpm and 58 Nm (43 lb-ft) of torque at 8,000 rpm from a Hornet-based 599cc four-stroke liquid-cooled in-line four engine.
