Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with some experience who want a torquey, easygoing four-cylinder machine without the sharp edges of a full sportsbike.
Purpose	Designed as a versatile all-rounder that blends sport-touring comfort with usable everyday performance.
Rider Fit	Its 242 kg weight and 795 mm seat height are manageable for average-height riders but reward a reasonably confident, sturdy build at low speeds.
Character	A smooth, refined in-line four with a relaxed riding position, offering effortless mile-munching rather than aggressive sportbike thrills.
Not Ideal For	Not the right choice for riders seeking off-road capability or razor-sharp track-focused handling.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 795mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2008 Honda CBF1000F, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
