I've always bought Hondas and felt the 90 CBR1000F was the cream of the crop in overall features and design for a motorcycle. But I never bought one until a year ago. I will never sell this bike!!! I bought in Dec., 2009 with 153 original miles. It has lived up to my expectations and apparently to many others as well. I can't take it anywhere without people coming up to me with stories of the CBR1000F they had or a friend had or simply "I remember those..." Yes it`s a little heavy, yes it`s got carbs and not fuel injected but HONDA hit a home run with this bike. I see a lot of newer CBR`s on bike lots and for sale just about everywhere but to own this gem, priceless!!!!

I have owned my CBR 1000F for 4 years now and have enjoyed every ride I have taken. For long trips, I have ridden to Laconia NH and NJ on the bike and comfort was good and better now with the upgrade to a Corbin seat. The previous owners barely broke the bike in as I bought it with only 11K miles on it back in 2001. The silver/gray color is real sharp and the finish and quality have been excellent. It took me awhile to get used to the bike and the power it does have since this was my first motorcycle after I passed the course and received my motorcycle license. After lots of trips now, I am very comfortable with my silver bike and enjoy having the weight on the highway and the power when needed. I would recommend this motorcycle highly and plan to keep mine for many years. Ride Safe

This is actually a European model CBR1000F, located in Cadiz, Spain. I just purchased the bike used with 31,000 km's 2 months ago and 6,000 km's on my clock. To describe her, quick, fast, and fun! Pulls hard above 5,000 rpms and just keeps on going! Honda's are known for bullet proof reliability. The bike has a real positive personality, sexy, powerful and definitely capable. Unfortunately I cannot take her back to the USA. I would buy another one in US specifications when I get back to USA. I love her and would hate to sell her when I leave.

I've owned 14 honda's over my lifetime and this has to be the best sport touring motorcycle I've ever owned. Sure it has some problems with the cam chain tensioner but overall its a 10. I tour and com- mute on this bike. I've put GenMar bar extentions, a new taller zero Gravity (Blue) windshield, and Give rack with removeable top box for touring. I am running bridgestone BT020 tires and getting about 10,000 miles . Not bad for a sport bike. Another great feature is a 5 + gal gas tank. Awsome. My honda dealer wants me to trade it in for a new CB1100XX, but I keep telling him no way!! 1990 Red White and Blue CB1000F a Keeper!!

I've owned this bike since new and fitted it with the usual sport touring accessories like a corbin seat, heli-bars, tail rack from Europe, and a zero gravity tall-wind screen. What really hits home with this bike is that it does everything very well, not the fastest or best handling, but oh so smooth and refined - a great touring bike that leans on the sport side, and a great value in today's bike market.

I've owned a 90 CBR 1000F for about a year now. It's a nice, comfortable sport-tourer, but its large bulk makes it a little difficult to toss around in the corners. Watch for the typical Honda cam-chain tensioner problems. Good wind protection. Decent speed and quickness considering it's a 10 year old bike. I fitted it with a set of BT56ss' and went up to a 180 in the rear and the handling improved tremendously.
