CBF1000S launched

Honda uncovered an all-new CBF1000S in Paris on Thursday night (Sep 29) at an exclusive preview of its official launch at the Paris bike show, and we’ve got the video.

It uses a detuned CBR1000RR engine (to around 120bhp) and should cost in the region of £6000. It has ABS and CBS linked brakes as standard. It will only be available in the half-faired form seen here and uses a basic tubular steel backbone frame. Suspension is only adjustable for pre-load.

MCN readers saw the bike ahead of the crowd in our issue published on Wednesday, September 28.

Check out the video of the new bike at its launch below.
