Honda CBF 1000 weight FAQ
How much does the Honda CBF 1000 weigh?

What does a full tank of gas weigh on the Honda CBF 1000?
A full tank works out to about 31.2 lb (14.2 kg) from the listed 5.02 US gal (19 L) capacity. Actual fuel density varies slightly, so treat it as a practical estimate.

Using the listed dry weight plus the calculated fuel mass, the estimated weight with a full tank is 516.2 lb (234.2 kg). That still may not equal official curb weight because dry-weight definitions can exclude other fluids or equipment.
What is the Honda CBF 1000 torque per 100 lb of bike weight?
Available data gives 14.14 lb-ft per 100 lb to 14.75 lb-ft per 100 lb. That ratio helps explain how strong the engine is relative to the bike’s mass, especially at lower speeds.
