Nice congrats! I think they’re great bikes even how people poo on them for being boring. But maybe that’s just the 650 variant.

`Ain`t nothing like a big bore Kawasaki four. Those are a great ride. The last thing my Z900 could be called is boring. The latest Versys 1100 is about the perfect do it all bike, maybe a little heavy IMO.

Good to know. Being physically small is a challenge at times. Riding a 1000cc bike is one of those times…and adventure bikes…and dirt bikes…and all sorts of tall bikes….

You rode the CB500x so you are fine on a CBF1000 with it's variable seat height. I only have a 30" inseam.
A Vstrom with a full fuel tank was a bit of a challenge at slow speeds but there are also boots to give you a 1" advantage.

The standard seat height for the 2010 Honda CBF1000 is 795 mm (31.3 inches), and it is adjustable to three positions ranging from 780 mm to 810 mm.

The problem with inline 4s is often not height but seat width which = comfortable ride but a challenge for short inseams.
