The 2008-2009 CBF1000 continued the first-generation SC58 package essentially unchanged: a detuned 998 cc inline four with strong low-down torque, a half fairing and adjustable riding position, with ABS available as an option. It remained a comfortable, stable rather than sharp-handling road bike aimed at riders who wanted litre-class flexibility without sportbike aggression.
