Update 3.17.2018: The seller has notified us that the transaction is now complete for this Hurricane and in fact sold quickly after being posted for just 4 hours. Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc If Suzuki’s GSX-R codified the sportbike formula for the masses, the Honda CBR600F Hurricane represented the next evolution. Introduced in 1987, and…
In terms of what collectors look for, this one ticks most of the boxes: one owner, never modified, and low miles. The question mark for me on this one is the styling, which to my eyes hasn’t aged terribly well compared to the next generation CBR1000 to follow it. Nonetheless for the right Honda enthusiast…
Two minty CBR600F1s on eBay Here’s a chance to jumpstart your vintage sportbike collection with not one, but two VERY clean first generation Honda CBR600s. The CBR600F1 debuted in 1987 and was Honda’s first fully faired inline 4 cylinder sportbike so there’s definitely some historical significance here.

Bradley, IL – 8,149mi — $3,550 No Reserve Long before the days of bikes and cars only being identified by alphanumeric codes and acronyms, there was the CBR600 Hurricane. The name just makes it sound awesome, and it is kind of sad that U.S. doesn’t have the Fireblade name for our 1000RR. Only a…
Location: Youngstown, Ohio Mileage: 17,000 Price: $2,500 BIN Here we have clean example of the first generation CBR600 from Honda. By 1990 Honda had unfortunately dropped the Hurricane name that came on previous 600’s, like my ’88 model. The Hurricane name is way cooler than the CBR designation and I keep waiting for…
