The [[Honda]] CBR600F series which started out with the 'Hurricane', are [[sportbike]]s made from 1987-2005.  They feature a 600cc inline four engine.  In 1989 the 'Hurricane' moniker was dropped and they began being known as F1, F2, F3, F4.  Later versions of the F4 included [[fuel injection]] and are known as F4i.  They were replaced by the [[Honda CBR600RR|CBR600RR]] as Honda's premier 600 class sportbike.

Perhaps more powerful is the enduring and endearing nature of Honda's original CBR concept: the same basic concept found in the current CBR600F4. Other ideas have come and gone, but CBR600s have been the best-selling sportbike in America since the original Hurricane. From rookie sport riders to 2000 Daytona 600 SuperSport winner Kurtis Roberts, no sportbike has ever provided such exceptional versatility as Honda's revolutionary CBR600.

==Engine==
A 63.5mm [[bore]] x 63.5mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 598.0 cubic centimeters. 
==Drive==
The bike has a 6-speed, manual transmission. Power was moderated via the Wet, multiple discs. 
==Chassis==
It came with a 110/80 V17 front [[tire]] and a 130/80 V17 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via Double disc 276 mm in the front and a Single disc 218 mm in the rear. The front suspension was a  Telescopic fork 37 mm while the rear was equipped with a Pro-link rising rate monoshock with 7 position preload. The wheelbase was 55.51 inches (1410 mm) long.

Honda's first-generation '''CBR600F''' established new standards for the middleweight class. The '''Hurricane''''s unique full-coverage bodywork allowed engineers to skip costly engine cosmetics and focus development dollars inside the engine cases. The result was a class-leading 83 [[horsepower]] from the CBR's [[liquid-cooled]] dohc inline-four. With a dry weight of 396.8 pounds--the lightest 600 available--the Hurricane blew away the competition, yet remained true to its design philosophy by offering versatility to match its incredible performance.

Introduced along with its big brother the CBR1000F, Honda's 600 Hurricane was a revolution. The reason was clearly visible in the Hurricane's aerodynamic, full-coverage bodywork. Less visible was the technological paradigm shift that blew away every other middleweight sportbike on earth and forever changed the way sportbikes were designed and built.
