Engineered by Honda for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2007 Honda CBF 600 relies on a 599 cc (36.6 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 76.4 HP (55.8 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 58 Nm (42.8 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 127.5 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (10,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the CBF 600 measures 194 kg (428 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.39 HP/kg (2.54 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 785 mm (30.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,480 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
