Django's CBF1000FA

[Django]

This is my first photo of my new CBF1000FA. It was token as it arrived at the dealership.

Now the dealership will add OEM paniers and heated grips and we are still waiting for the paperwork. If everything is fine, we'll get it street legal this week.

Sorry for the low quality of the photo. It was token by my cell phone.

If you don't mind, I'd made this thread to a kind of my CBF1000FA blog.

Some info about the CBF1000FA and its predecessor CBF1000:

You missed your chance! They WERE available in Canada and some dealers still had NOS up until about a year ago. I had a 2009 MK1 version and Django has the latest MK2, but I'm sure that his is NOS.

Sadly, I'm pretty sure that they have been out of production for several years.

What a great dash!!!



They should have gave it two modes of power control, one @ the 106 HP that it puts out and 135 hp in full power mode. The motor is from the CBR1000RR design they could have easily toned down the motor on top put in in the mid-range and still produced that kind of power.

Nice write ups on the bike and good luck.

Nice bike, in a very smooth colour. Now put the kilometres on it.

Cheers

Cant wait to see it all dressed up with panniers

 

[Cormanus]

How long before he trades it for a CB1100?

PS. Looks great, Django. Looking forward to hearing how you find it.

 

[Django]

Got it otd today and put the first 100 km on it. Well, it was around freezing point and the heated grips were very welcome.

I like it! :excited:

Very nice. Congrats again Django. Bags remind me a bit of a cross between Givi bags and the Deauville bags.

beautiful bike!

I see a glad Django and this is what matters.
All other thoughts are...., well but I have some.

The bike on the left side in the background of the third image seems to be the
right one and reminds me on somewhat, wait a minute I'm still searching for it.

You're still over it, I know.
And hopefully your dreams have come true to own a bike that's optical
more resistant than the good old black bike in the distance.
The price is, that it it looks so darn practical and functional without any
kind of soul. But what does soul means? The interpretation may vary
heavily.

I like it too! You look great on that bike. I hope you enjoy it.

What does the word (I can't quite make it out) under the Honda decal mean?

@popgun: `Limbächer' - the name of the dealership. I overlooked it this morning. I don't like it and will get them to remove it, when I roll in for the 1,000 km service.

@wisedrum: She talks to me while riding. So I guess she has a soul, although it may not be visible to outsiders. :beerchug:

 

[Pterodactyl_imp]

Very nice. Keep us updated.

Cheers

Congrats Django! Looks like you've set yourself up with a great sport tourer. Enjoy it and check in with us on how it goes.

 

[the Ferret]

Needs some of those lexan handguards. tHen those heated grips would be really effective.

I see, it is more in the inside.
The CBF does not carry its soul apparently on its hands, so to say,
as the CB does in addition to the inside.

Wish you always a soulful ride.
