Lot 22

1991 Honda CBR 1000 F-L

1991 Honda CBR 1000 F-L
Registration no. J178 ONK
Frame no. SC24-21054
Engine no. SC09E2105674

New for 1987, the CBR1000 (and CBR600) represented Honda's return to the ubiquitous across-the-frame-four after a lengthy dalliance with V4s of varying capacities. Beneath the bigger CBR's smooth 'jelly mould' bodywork there was a 16-valve water-cooled engine that incorporated a balancer shaft to quell vibration and an alternator mounted behind the block to reduce width. With over 140bhp on tap, the CBR1000 was boss of the contemporary litre-bike class albeit somewhat heavy at over 500lbs, a factor that soon saw it reclassified as more of a sports tourer. A major success for Honda, the CBR1000 remained in production until 1997.

This CBR1000 has had only four previous owners from new and was purchased by the private vendor from a local resident, having been seen displayed for sale outside his house. No previous history is known. Dry stored since acquisition and currently displaying 24,974 miles on the odometer, this modern-classic Honda has been fitted with a new battery and run recently. It is offered with a V5C Registration Certificate; three expired MoTs; sundry invoices; MoT to 3rd April 2026; and an owner's manual and service book.
