Honda CBF 1000 2006
The sum of the unspectacular details results in a perfectly balanced motorbike. Lovers of European motorbikes might think, "too sterile, too little character". The CBF cannot and will not force a Tuono, a Monster or an MV out of the garage. It pushes the happy owner out of the garage onto the asphalt every day.
Suzuki GSX-S1000F 2015
The GSX-S1000F is basically a GSX-S1000 with which it shares all the geometry, with a bit of added value that pays off quite nicely.
