2010 CBF600 coming to Canada

[Morrissey]

Hey all. Took a look and didn't see anything about this posted yet. Honda will be bringing the CBF600 to Canada for 2010. Its about time I say! They brought over the 1000 first, but to me, the 600 should be a good seller. It is one of the most popular bikes in Europe. Should be a great all-rounder. Good in the twisties, comfortable, lots of real world power, affordable, insurance friendly and great looking fit and finish. Integrated turn signals are a nice touch. http://www.honda.ca/MCPE/Motorcycle/...odel=CBF600A10

I must say that I am a little bummed that Honda USA is getting the NT700V and we are not though. That would have been a sweet ride, especially for 1 up touring. All the nice creature comforts of a large ST bike withouth the large ST price! http://powersports.honda.com/2010/nt700v.aspx

I don't really like the shape.

[Fingolfin]

could use a lower fairing,

no pricing yet?

[RetroGrouch]

Wow, it's dullness is overwhelming.

I'd love to hear from Honda what's the point of this bike on already saturated mild street 600cc market. Oh well ....

[adamcbrrr]

On a side not Honda has the worst website going.

Did anyone else think it looks a LOT like an SV650s?

lots of bikes that sold well in europe were total flops here

[zacm7]

they all look the same.

Euro bikes were not big sellers here because of exchange rates and high pricing.
Honda does need a 600 sport/street naked. What do you move up to once you have smoked the wheels off the CBR125R and not want to move up to CBR600R?
Let's hope they don't strangle the motor like the 599 and 919.

Send it back.

+ 1 on they might not do too well. The Hornet did not do too well so I don’t see why this will. I understand that the FZ6 has been doing okay, but I don’t think the naked 600 market is that big.
As to the NT700… hmm a 700 cc V-twin tourer at 560 lb? might be a bit under powered?

I think it looks more like an FZ6.

I like it. If the price isn't too far above it's competition, I think it will sell well. As an "affordable" Honda, It will probably hold it's value very well.

[mr.fizz]

[Dr.Manhattan]

Looks like the 125 CC Honda.

As I recall, when the 599 came over it was overpriced quite a bit compared to the SV650.

I saw it at the CBR125 gathering on the weekend. It was looking like a nice bike until they said it was going to cost $10,000.
